Personal Injury Lawyer Serving St. Petersburg & Pinellas County, FL

Attorney Anna Katherine Stone has represented injured Florida residents for more than 20 years and takes St. Petersburg cases as seriously as anyone practicing out of a downtown office would — reviewing your file personally, not routing you through an intake system built for volume.

What an Injury Case Looks Like in St. Petersburg

Downtown St. Petersburg has grown fast — more residents, more visitors, more rideshare and delivery traffic navigating a compact street grid that wasn't built for this much volume. At the same time, the bridges tying the city to Tampa (I-275, the Howard Frankland, the Gandy, and the Sunshine Skyway further south) carry heavy commuter traffic every day, and accidents on those spans tend to be severe given the speeds involved. It's a city where both ends of the spectrum show up regularly: low-speed downtown collisions with pedestrians and cyclists, and high-speed bridge and interstate crashes.

We represent St. Petersburg-area clients across that range:


  • Car accidents on I-275, the Howard Frankland Bridge, the Gandy Bridge, and the Sunshine Skyway
  • Pedestrian and cyclist accidents in downtown St. Petersburg's busier corridors
  • Rideshare and delivery-driver-involved accidents
  • Slip and fall and premises liability injuries at businesses and properties throughout the city
  • Workplace injuries that fall outside the workers' compensation system, including third-party liability claims


If you're not sure whether your situation qualifies as a personal injury claim, that's exactly what a free consultation is for. We'll tell you where you stand.

St. Petersburg Personal Injury Questions, Answered

  • Does my case have to be handled in Tampa if I live in St. Petersburg?

    No. Pinellas County has its own court facilities, including the St. Petersburg Judicial Building downtown, and we handle claims and filings appropriate to where you live and where the incident happened — not just wherever our main office sits.

  • I was hit by a rideshare or delivery driver in St. Petersburg. Is that different from a regular car accident claim?

    It can be. Rideshare and delivery companies carry different, often layered insurance coverage depending on whether the driver was actively on a trip, waiting for a ride request, or off the clock. Sorting out which policy applies is exactly the kind of thing worth having an attorney untangle before you accept any offer.

  • What if I was hurt as a pedestrian or cyclist downtown?

    Florida law allows pedestrians and cyclists injured by a negligent driver to pursue compensation the same way a driver would, and downtown St. Petersburg sees a meaningful number of these cases given how much foot and bike traffic the area gets. We can review the specifics at no cost.

  • How much does a personal injury lawyer cost in St. Petersburg?

    We work on a contingency fee basis — no upfront cost, and no attorney fees unless we recover compensation for you. Your initial consultation is also free.

  • Can I file a workers' comp claim if I was hurt at work in St. Petersburg?

    Yes. Florida workers' compensation law covers most employees injured while performing job duties, statewide, including St. Petersburg and the rest of Pinellas County.
