Hurt in Little Haiti? Nou la pou ou — we are here for you.
A crash on NE 2nd Avenue or Biscayne Boulevard. A pedestrian hit near 54th Street. An attack at an apartment building that ignored security. Aaron A. Karger represents Little Haiti families every day — and if you are more comfortable in Kreyòl, we will meet you there.
Hurt in Little Haiti? Start here.
Little Haiti’s corridors — NE 2nd Avenue, Biscayne Boulevard, NW and NE 54th Street, NE 79th Street and the I-95 edge — are among the most dangerous in Miami for people on foot and on bikes, and too many apartment buildings in the neighborhood run with broken locks, dark hallways and no real security. If a driver, a property owner or a business hurt you or someone you love, you have rights — and you do not have to face an insurance company alone.
The consultation is free and confidential. You pay no attorney’s fees and no costs unless we recover for you.

Why Little Haiti calls Aaron
Aaron A. Karger is a former Miami-Dade Assistant State Attorney who tried cases for the State before dedicating his practice to injury victims. That prosecutor’s training — building a case witness by witness, record by record — is now aimed at negligent property owners, careless drivers and the insurance companies behind them.
Aaron has been named a Florida Super Lawyer every year since 2018, holds a 5.0 rating on Google across 165 reviews, and his cases have been covered by NBC 6, WPLG Local 10, CBS Miami, WSVN 7 and the Miami Herald. This is a small firm by design: when you call, you talk to Aaron — not a call center.

Little Haiti injury FAQ
Èske m ka jwenn èd an Kreyòl? — Can I get help in Creole?
Wi. Little Haiti is the heart of one of the largest Haitian communities in the country, and we regularly help Creole-speaking clients and their families. Si ou pi alèz an Kreyòl, di nou sa lè ou rele — tell us your preference when you call and we will make sure nothing is lost in translation.
What does it cost to hire Aaron?
Nothing up front. Personal injury cases are handled on contingency: no attorney’s fees or costs unless we recover for you. The consultation is free and confidential.
A car hit me while I was walking or biking. What should I do?
Get medical care first — Florida’s PIP law generally requires seeing a doctor within 14 days, and pedestrians and cyclists are usually covered by PIP through their own or a household auto policy even though they were not driving. Then get legal advice before giving any statement to an insurance company.
How long do I have to file an injury claim?
For most negligence claims arising on or after March 24, 2023, Florida’s deadline is two years. Some cases have different rules, and evidence like surveillance video can disappear much sooner, so call as soon as you can.
I was attacked at an apartment building in Little Haiti. Do I have a case?
You may. If the owner knew about prior crime or dangerous conditions and failed to take reasonable security measures — working locks and gates, adequate lighting, cameras — the owner can be held civilly liable. The claim is against the property owner, not the attacker, so it does not depend on an arrest or a conviction.
Have questions about a legal issue? Ask Aaron.
“Your case is important to me. I will always make myself personally available to talk to you and answer your questions. I will always return your call.”
Aaron replies by phone, email or text. Asking a question does not create an attorney-client relationship.
