Miramar is a City located in Broward County, Florida. Miramar is bordered by Pembroke Pines to the North; Hollywood to the Northeast; West Park to the East; and Miami-Dade County, Florida to the south. This Miramar Personal Injury Lawyer fights hard for his injured clients in Miramar.

There were 122,041 people living in Miramar as of the year 2010. As of 2016, the population had grown to 138,449 – so the City is growing. Many of these people are injured in accidents of all sorts, and Mr. Quackenbush represents them in their personal injury cases.

The motto of the City of Miramar is “Beauty and Progress.” The City was incorporated in 1955. It is governed by a City Commission and run by a City Manager. Miramar has a Mayor, a Vice Mayor, three Commissioners, and a City Clerk. Lawsuits against the City are referred to as cases of “sovereign immunity” (any case against a city, county or the State is referred to as a sovereign immunity case). Sovereign immunity cases must be approved by the Miramar City Commission.

Sovereign immunity cases carry with them restrictions and limitations such as a six-month notice requirement before a lawsuit can be brought against the City. Lawsuits against the City also carry with them a $200,000 damage cap (meaning the most you can recover in your case against the City is $200,000). The only exception to this rule would come in the form of a claims bill in the State Legislature in Tallahassee.
