How we match your Sunrise lemon law case

When you submit a Sunrise lemon law matter, we route it through a national network of independent partner firms and put it in front of the one that fits best — based on the kind of case it is, what it is likely to involve, where it has to be handled, and who has capacity to take it on now.

Case type

A lemon law matter needs someone who handles lemon law work day to day, not a generalist. Practice area is the first filter.

Size and complexity

Some firms are built for catastrophic injury and multi-party litigation; others resolve straightforward claims quickly. We weigh what your matter is likely to involve against how each firm actually works.

Jurisdiction and licensing

Your matter is decided under Florida law, so it goes to an attorney licensed in Florida who regularly appears where your case would be heard.

Capacity and fit

Availability, conflicts of interest and language all matter. If the best-fit firm cannot take your case, we route it to the next one that can — or tell you plainly when no one in the network is the right answer.

Every partner reviews your case for free. Injury and workers’ compensation matters are handled on contingency — no fee unless you win. Other matters are quoted upfront, before you commit to anything.

Sunrise drivers rely on their cars for long runs on the Sawgrass Expressway, I-595, and the Turnpike to Fort Lauderdale and Miami, so a new vehicle with a defect that keeps coming back is a serious problem, not an inconvenience. Florida's lemon law covers newly purchased or leased vehicles and generally requires you to give the manufacturer a chance to repair before pursuing a refund or replacement, often through a state-run arbitration program. Related warranty or fraud claims can proceed in Broward County Circuit Court. DearLegal matches you with a Florida-licensed attorney who handles lemon law cases in Sunrise, with a free review.

Florida's lemon law applies to new or leased vehicles within a limited period after delivery and typically runs through a state arbitration process before court.
Warranty, deceptive practice, and used-vehicle claims that fall outside the lemon law can be filed in Broward County Circuit Court.
Sunrise buyers often purchase from dealerships elsewhere in Broward or in Miami-Dade or Palm Beach County, which can affect where a related suit is brought.

In Florida lemon law cases the law can shift your attorney’s fees to the other side — you keep your recovery.

Florida’s Motor Vehicle Warranty Enforcement Act (Fla. Stat. § 681.112) and the federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act (15 U.S.C. § 2310(d)(2)) are fee-shifting — the manufacturer pays the prevailing consumer’s reasonable attorney fees on top of the recovery. Most Florida lemon law attorneys take cases with no fee deducted from the consumer’s refund or replacement.

Generally a new or leased vehicle with a substantial defect that the manufacturer cannot fix after a reasonable number of repair attempts, or that is out of service for an extended stretch. The defect has to affect use, value, or safety, not be cosmetic. An attorney can assess whether your repair history qualifies.

Florida's lemon law is aimed at new and leased vehicles, so most used purchases fall outside it. That does not leave you without options, since remaining factory warranty coverage, dealer service contracts, and deceptive sales practice claims may still apply. Have an attorney review your paperwork before assuming nothing can be done.

Florida sets deadlines that vary, and lemon law claims are tied to a limited window measured from vehicle delivery, which is shorter than most people expect. Keep every repair order and dated service record. Contact a Florida attorney promptly so the exact deadline for your vehicle can be confirmed.

Under Fla. Stat. § 681.104, a vehicle is presumed a lemon if, within 24 months of delivery, the manufacturer cannot repair a nonconformity after 3 attempts, or the vehicle has been out of service for repairs for 30 cumulative days (15 of which must occur during the “Lemon Law rights period”).

Florida’s Lemon Law applies only to new vehicles. The federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act and Florida’s UCC implied warranty of merchantability (Fla. Stat. § 672.314) protect used buyers with a written warranty.
