Keystone Islands is one of North Miami’s most exclusive waterfront communities—an upscale collection of gated islands known for their deep-water canals, private docks, luxurious homes, and quiet residential streets. With direct access to Biscayne Boulevard (US-1), proximity to NE 135th Street, NE 123rd Street, and the Broad Causeway leading to Bal Harbour, the area offers a peaceful lifestyle while sitting alongside some of the busiest transportation routes in Miami-Dade County. Residents frequently travel to nearby hotspots like the Miami Shores Country Club, Oleta River State Park, Biscayne Landing, Keystone Point Park, and the bustling North Miami commercial corridors.
Even in such a serene, residential environment, accidents happen. A crash on Biscayne Boulevard, a slip-and-fall at a nearby restaurant in Sans Souci, a boating injury along Biscayne Bay, or a pedestrian accident while walking a dog through Keystone Point can change a person’s life in an instant. Medical bills rise quickly, work becomes difficult or impossible, and insurance adjusters begin calling—often pushing for a quick settlement before you understand the long-term consequences of your injuries.
