Attorney Juan Cordero has lived and worked on Miami Beach for most of his life. He has been deeply involved in the local community — including countless hours supporting youth programs — for over 26 years. If you've been hurt in Miami Beach, you're not calling someone unfamiliar with the area. You're calling a neighbor.

Miami Beach attracts millions of visitors each year — and with that comes a unique set of injury risks. Hotel and resort accidents, rideshare collisions on Collins Avenue, nightclub negligent security incidents, drunk-driving crashes leaving Ocean Drive bars, and slip-and-falls on the famous boardwalk are all too common.

Our firm recovered a landmark $28.9 million negligent security settlement — the type of case that frequently arises in Miami Beach's entertainment and hospitality venues. No fee unless we win. Call 24/7: 305.525.8957.

Miami Beach's nightlife corridor — Ocean Drive, Washington Avenue, and the surrounding entertainment district — sees a high concentration of injury cases tied to inadequate security and intoxicated patrons or drivers. Florida law allows injury victims to hold a business accountable when foreseeable criminal activity wasn't reasonably prevented.

Florida law may also allow victims of drunk-driving crashes to pursue both the driver and, in some cases, the establishment that over-served them — particularly when the driver was a minor or visibly intoxicated at the time of service. Miami Beach's bar and restaurant density makes these dram shop situations more common here than almost anywhere else in Florida.

Cases originating in Miami Beach are typically handled in the Miami-Dade County Court (claims under $50,000) or the 11th Judicial Circuit Court at 73 W. Flagler St. (claims over $50,000). Miami Beach Police Department incident reports are usually the first piece of evidence we secure — and we move fast to preserve them.
