Car accidents are an everyday risk in Tallahassee, from heavy traffic on I-10 and US-90 to collisions along busy local roads like Tennessee Street and Apalachee Parkway near the FSU campus. These crashes often leave victims dealing with painful injuries, expensive medical bills, and insurance companies eager to reduce payouts.

LK Law Bleeds Garnet & Gold
From Florida State University to the Courtroom
At LK Law, our connection to Tallahassee runs deep. Attorney Liana Kaylor earned her Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Florida State University before pursuing her law degree. Her time as a Seminole taught her not only discipline and resilience, but also the importance of community — values that continue to guide her law practice today. One of her proudest moments was “graduating” alongside Bailey, her loyal companion. For Liana, being a Seminole means carrying forward a spirit of grit, loyalty, and dedication — both in the courtroom and in the community.
Local Knowledge That Matters
Tallahassee’s roadways bring together state government commuters, college traffic, and freight routes along I-10, creating unique accident risks. US-90, US-27, and Capital Circle are among the busiest and most dangerous roads in the region. Heavy traffic near Florida State University, Florida A&M University, and Tallahassee Community College, combined with seasonal congestion during football games and legislative sessions, all contribute to frequent collisions throughout the city.
​
LK Law has strong ties to Tallahassee through its FSU roots. That connection means we understand the courts, the roadways, and the challenges students and residents face after a crash. Our commitment is to guide clients with clarity and persistence from start to finish.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do I have to file a claim after a Tallahassee car accident?
For accidents that happened on or after March 24, 2023, Florida law gives you two years from the date of the crash to file a personal injury lawsuit. This change cut the old four-year deadline in half. If your accident happened before that date, the four-year time limit may still apply.
​
Because deadlines can be tricky, it’s always best to talk with an attorney right away so evidence and witness statements don’t get lost over time.
Do I need to go to court for a Tallahassee auto accident case?
Not always. Many Tallahassee auto accident claims are resolved through negotiations with the insurance company and never reach a courtroom. However, if the insurer refuses to make a fair offer, filing a lawsuit in the Second Judicial Circuit (Leon County) may be necessary.
​
Even when a lawsuit is filed, most cases still settle before trial. LK Law prepares every case as if it will go to trial so you’re in the strongest position whether it resolves at the negotiating table or in court.
How much does it cost to hire LK Law for an auto accident case?
There is no upfront cost to hire LK Law for an auto accident case. These cases are handled on a contingency fee basis, which means the attorney fee is a percentage of the recovery and is only collected if we obtain compensation for you.
The percentage and terms are explained in writing before representation begins, in compliance with Florida Bar rules on contingency fees. You’ll also receive a clear explanation of potential costs and expenses, such as medical record fees or expert witnesses, so there are no surprises.
