Delray Beach Personal Injury Lawyer

PETER J. PORCARO

Peter Porcaro has represented seriously injured clients and grieving families throughout Palm Beach County for over 20 years. He built Porcaro Law Group on a simple principle: injured people deserve direct access to their lawyer — not a rotating cast of paralegals and case managers.

Peter focuses exclusively on personal injury and wrongful death cases. He knows the Palm Beach County courts, local insurance adjusters, and the roads — from I-95 to Federal Highway and Atlantic Avenue — where serious accidents happen. He has secured six-figure and seven-figure results for clients with catastrophic injuries, car accidents, and wrongful death claims.

Why Choose Porcaro Law for Your Delray Beach Personal Injury Case

Most personal injury firms in Delray Beach operate as volume practices — settling cases quickly for less than full value. Porcaro Law takes a different approach. We focus on catastrophic injury and wrongful death cases where the stakes are highest, and we serve clients throughout Palm Beach County including Boca Raton, West Palm Beach, Palm Beach Gardens, and Boynton Beach.


We know the Palm Beach County courts, how local insurers negotiate, and the roads where serious accidents happen. You communicate directly with your lawyer — not a paralegal. We advance all case costs. You owe nothing unless we win.

Personal Injury Cases We Handle in Delray Beach.

We represent injured clients and families throughout Delray Beach and Palm Beach County. Whether your case involves a car crash, a fall, a dangerous product, or a catastrophic injury, our standard is the same: investigate fully, negotiate hard, and go to trial when insurers won’t be reasonable.

Car, Motorcycle & Bicycle Accidents.

Heavy traffic on I-95 and West Atlantic Avenue creates frequent serious collisions. Florida’s no-fault PIP system applies to most crashes, but when injuries are severe, you can step outside it to pursue full compensation. See our car accident practice.

Truck & Commercial Vehicle Accidents.

Tractor-trailer crashes on I-95 often cause traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, and wrongful death. Multiple parties may share liability. See our truck accident practice.

Slip and Fall & Premises Liability.

Restaurants, hotels, and retail stores must maintain safe premises. When negligent conditions cause falls, we hold property owners accountable. See our slip and fall practice.

Wrongful Death.

Florida’s Wrongful Death Act allows family members to pursue compensation for lost income, lost financial support, and loss of companionship. See our wrongful death practice.

Nursing Home Abuse & Neglect.

We represent families whose loved ones suffered neglect or abuse in care facilities throughout Palm Beach County. See our nursing home practice.

Medical Malpractice.

Surgical errors, misdiagnosis, and birth injuries caused by healthcare provider negligence may entitle you to significant compensation. See our medical malpractice practice.

Boating & Waterfront Injuries.

The Intracoastal Waterway and South Florida coast create unique accident risks — some involving federal maritime law and short deadlines. See our boat accident practice.

Florida Personal Injury Law — Key Rules for Delray Beach Residents

Statute of Limitations — TWO YEARS

Florida gives you two years from the date of your accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. Missing this deadline forfeits your right to compensation regardless of how clear the other party’s fault is. Evidence disappears within weeks — don’t wait.

Modified Comparative Negligence

Florida gives you two years from the date of your accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. Missing this deadline forfeits your right to compensation regardless of how clear the other party’s fault is. Evidence disappears within weeks — don’t wait.

Florida No-Fault PIP Coverage

Florida gives you two years from the date of your accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. Missing this deadline forfeits your right to compensation regardless of how clear the other party’s fault is. Evidence disappears within weeks — don’t wait.

Florida Car Accident Insurance Claims Guide

Florida’s car accident insurance system is one of the most complex in the country — involving no-fault PIP coverage, comparative negligence rules, uninsured motorist claims, and filing deadlines that vary by case type. Most accident victims don’t know how these rules interact until it’s too late.

 

Porcaro Law has built the Florida Car Accident Insurance Claims Guide as the definitive free resource for accident victims in Palm Beach County and throughout South Florida.

How We Build Your Personal Injury Case

Investigation

We collect police crash reports, 911 recordings, surveillance footage, vehicle black box data, and witness statements. We work with accident reconstruction experts and treating physicians to build your evidentiary foundation before insurers can dispute it.

02 .

Negotiation

We prepare a demand package with medical records, bills, and expert opinions — then handle all communications with insurance adjusters. We counter lowball offers and tactics like blaming pre-existing conditions. You approve any settlement before we accept it.

Compensation Available in a Florida Personal Injury Case

Florida personal injury law allows you to recover economic damages — past and future medical expenses, lost wages, and reduced earning capacity — and non-economic damages including pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life. In cases involving extreme recklessness, punitive damages may also be available. We document every category of loss carefully, working with medical and financial experts to support the full value of your claim.
