Injured in Riviera Beach? Attorney Marcos Gonzalez is AV-Rated, former insurance counsel, and has recovered $500M+ for South Florida injury victims. Free evaluation 24/7 — no fees unless we win.
Riviera Beach is a uniquely diverse community of approximately 35,000 residents in northern Palm Beach County. The city’s character combines the upscale resort and residential community of Singer Island — accessed via the Blue Heron Boulevard bridge over the Intracoastal Waterway — with the dense urban core along Avenue E, Avenue S, and the Blue Heron Boulevard commercial corridor on the mainland side. The Port of Palm Beach is located within Riviera Beach city limits, generating significant commercial truck and industrial traffic. The combination produces a distinctly varied accident landscape — from luxury hotel slip-and-fall incidents on Singer Island to commercial truck crashes near the Port to standard urban auto accidents on the mainland.
Blue Heron Boulevard is the city’s defining corridor — it crosses from the mainland over the Intracoastal to Singer Island, carrying enormous tourist, commuter, and commercial traffic volumes daily. The bridge transition area, the intersections with US-1 and Federal Highway, and the access points to the Port of Palm Beach all generate documented crash activity. Singer Island’s hotel and resort corridor along A1A North produces a substantial volume of premises liability claims, hotel slip-and-fall cases, and crashes involving tourist drivers unfamiliar with the area.

Attorney Marcos Gonzalez is AV-Rated by Martindale-Hubbell. We handle the full spectrum of accidents that occur in this distinctive community — from luxury resort premises liability cases on Singer Island to commercial truck crashes near the Port of Palm Beach to maritime injury cases involving Port operations.

Advocates USA has represented injury victims from every corridor and intersection in Riviera Beach. These are the locations where serious crashes and injuries occur most frequently.
Blue Heron Boulevard is the most accident-active corridor in Riviera Beach. The bridge crossing over the Intracoastal Waterway creates a bottleneck where speed differentials cause crashes. The commercial corridor near US-1 and Australian Avenue generates turning conflicts. Singer Island’s hotel district produces significant tourist traffic from drivers unfamiliar with local road conditions. The corridor handles enormous truck volumes serving the Port of Palm Beach.
A1A north of the Blue Heron Boulevard bridge serves Singer Island’s hotel and condominium corridor, including the Palm Beach Marriott Singer Island Resort, Hilton Singer Island Oceanfront, and other major hotel properties. Tourist traffic, valet vehicle movements at hotel driveways, and pedestrian crossings to beach access points create constant accident risk. Crashes here often involve drivers unfamiliar with the road and produce serious injuries.
US-1 through Riviera Beach carries significant through-traffic plus dense local destination-traffic. The intersections with Blue Heron Boulevard, 45th Street, and Avenue E generate documented crash activity. The corridor’s mix of urban commercial development and through-commuter traffic produces unpredictable turning conflicts at almost every intersection.
The Port of Palm Beach within Riviera Beach generates substantial commercial truck traffic on the surrounding streets — Blue Heron Boulevard west of the bridge, 45th Street, and Australian Avenue. Port operations run 24 hours, and late-night loaded truck traffic on these streets creates elevated serious crash risk. Port-area accidents may also involve federal maritime law considerations depending on the specific location of the crash.
Australian Avenue runs north-south through Riviera Beach and serves the urban commercial corridor and the Port of Palm Beach access. The corridor combines commercial truck traffic, urban commuter traffic, and pedestrian crossings at the major intersections. Crashes are concentrated at the intersection with Blue Heron Boulevard and the 45th Street junction.
45th Street runs east-west through Riviera Beach, providing primary access between US-1 and Australian Avenue. The corridor carries significant commercial vehicle traffic, urban commuter traffic, and serves as a primary route to St. Mary’s Medical Center on its western section. The intersections with Australian Avenue and Broadway are crash-active locations.
The marina district along the Riviera Beach mainland, including Phil Foster Park, generates significant boat-related vehicle traffic, weekend visitor activity, and the routine commercial traffic associated with marina and boat-yard operations. The narrow access roads and frequent special-event traffic produce accident scenarios involving unfamiliar drivers.
The roads providing access to the Singer Island Inlet area, including Ocean Avenue and the side streets connecting A1A to the beach access points, see significant pedestrian and bicycle activity from beach visitors, hotel guests, and residents. Crashes here often involve cyclists, pedestrians crossing to beach access points, and tourists unfamiliar with the road configuration.

Riviera Beach, Palm Beach County, Florida
The Port of Palm Beach generates substantial 24-hour commercial truck traffic on the streets within and surrounding Riviera Beach. Crashes involving Port-related commercial vehicles frequently involve complex liability scenarios — the driver, the trucking company, the cargo shipper or loader, and the Port operator may all face liability. Federal regulations under FMCSA hours-of-service rules (49 CFR Part 395) apply to many Port-related drivers. Maritime law may also apply to accidents that occur within Port facilities or involve longshoremen and harbor workers. Advocates USA navigates the full intersection of state, federal, and maritime law that may apply to Port-related accident claims.
Yes. Premises liability claims at Singer Island hotels and resorts — slip and fall at pool decks, falls in lobby areas, beach access incidents, fitness center and spa accidents — involve property owners with significant insurance coverage and sophisticated claims management. Hotel-related claims often involve multiple liable parties: the hotel ownership, the management company operating the property, separate vendors providing pool maintenance or other services, and the property’s franchise relationship in some cases. We identify every liable party and pursue all available coverage layers.
Workers within Port of Palm Beach operations are typically covered by the federal Longshore and Harbor Workers’ Compensation Act (LHWCA) rather than Florida workers’ compensation. The federal system has different benefit calculations and procedures. Third-party personal injury claims against parties other than the worker’s direct employer may also be available — and these claims often produce larger total recoveries than the federal compensation system alone. Advocates USA handles cases at the intersection of maritime law and Florida personal injury law with full attention to the unique procedural and substantive considerations involved.
Florida Statutes section 95.11(3)(a) sets the statute of limitations at 2 years from the date of injury for most personal injury claims. This deadline is absolute — missing it by even a single day permanently eliminates your right to compensation. Wrongful death claims also have a 2-year window. Dog bite claims under Florida Statute 767.04 have 4 years. If a government entity is involved, special notice rules under Florida Statutes 768.28 may apply with shorter deadlines. Call (877) 872-4878 immediately after any serious accident.
Advocates USA works on a contingency fee basis for all personal injury cases. You pay no upfront retainer, no hourly fees, and no costs out of pocket while we work on your case. Our fee is a percentage of the recovery we obtain for you — settlement or verdict. If we do not recover compensation for you, you owe us absolutely nothing. This arrangement aligns our interests with yours and ensures top-tier legal representation is available regardless of your current financial situation.
