Hurt on US 19, Spring Hill Drive or Mariner Boulevard, or in a crash on the Suncoast Parkway? Tomas Robirosa helps injured people and families in Spring Hill deal with the insurance companies, and you can speak with him directly in Spanish or English.
Whether you need a Spring Hill car accident lawyer or a personal injury lawyer in Spring Hill after a fall or another injury, this page explains, in plain words, how these claims generally work in Hernando County and what to do now to protect yourself. It is general information, not legal advice; every case is different.
Spring Hill is not an incorporated city. It is a census-designated place in southwestern Hernando County, and it is large: the 2020 Census counted 113,568 residents, up from 98,621 in 2010. Because Spring Hill is unincorporated, the Census Bureau does not publish yearly population estimates for it, so 2020 Census numbers are the most recent official count. About one in five residents (20.5%) is Hispanic, according to the Census Bureau.
The modern community began in 1967 as a planned development by the Deltona Corporation and the Mackle Brothers, who first wanted to call it "Spring Lake." It has grown into a place where many people live in Hernando County and drive to work toward Tampa, about 40 miles to the south. The Suncoast Parkway, finished in 2001, made that commute much easier, and it also put more cars on local roads.
Tomas Robirosa handles car accident claims for people hurt in Spring Hill: rear-end crashes in commuter traffic, left-turn crashes at busy intersections, crashes at toll plazas and ramps, hit-and-runs, and crashes with uninsured drivers. You can meet with him by phone, by video or in person.
Spring Hill was built as a planned community, and a few main roads carry most of the traffic:
Spring Hill has no city government, so there is no city police department. The Hernando County Sheriff's Office provides law enforcement for the county. The Florida Highway Patrol also investigates crashes on state and U.S. highways and in unincorporated areas, so FHP troopers may handle a crash on US 19 or the Suncoast Parkway.
The Sheriff's Office notes that crash reports are confidential for 60 days, except for the people involved and listed on the report, who can pick one up with a photo ID. One more local detail matters: the Postal Service also uses the "Spring Hill" name for ZIP code 34610, which is in Pasco County. If your crash happened across the line in Pasco County, a different county and agency may be involved.
As a personal injury lawyer serving Spring Hill, Tomas Robirosa also helps with other personal injury claims:
A serious injury can mean lost income, ongoing care and help at home, so the value of a claim depends on understanding the full effect on your life, not just the first medical bills.
Florida's no-fault system means your own PIP coverage generally pays a share of your medical bills and lost wages first, regardless of who caused the crash, up to the policy limit. Once that coverage is used up, the rest of your losses must come from somewhere else.
If your injuries are serious, you may have a claim against the driver who caused the crash for unpaid medical bills, future treatment, lost earning ability and pain and suffering. If that driver has little or no coverage, your uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage may help, if you have it. A crash with a work vehicle or a rideshare driver can bring in more insurance.
Under Florida's modified comparative negligence rule, in general, a person found more than 50% at fault cannot recover damages from the other driver, and a person found 50% or less at fault has the recovery reduced by that share.
For most negligence claims in Florida, the deadline to file a lawsuit is generally two years from the date of the crash. Every case is different, so speak with an attorney to confirm the deadline that applies to you.
Hernando County is part of Florida's Fifth Judicial Circuit. When a lawsuit is needed for a crash in Spring Hill, it is usually filed in Hernando County. The Hernando County Clerk of Court lists the Hernando County Courthouse at 20 N. Main Street in Brooksville, the county seat. Most cases are resolved without a trial, but we prepare each one as if it could go to court.
About one in five Spring Hill residents is Hispanic, and many families feel more comfortable handling a legal problem in Spanish. Tomas Robirosa speaks Spanish and English. You can explain what happened in your own words, ask every question you have, and understand each document before you sign it. This page is also available in Spanish.
We work on a contingency basis: no fee unless we recover. Tomas Robirosa serves Spring Hill and all of Hernando County. Call (305) 600-0529.
