You need to retain a personal injury attorney here in Florida on contingency fee which means you pay nothing unless you win. The police officer’s opinion as to who was at fault for the accident is not dispositive of liability in a civil case.

Your attorney should answer this question for you.
It can take a long time, many months, sometimes years, to do all that is necessary to even ask for a settlement, and longer to get a settlement. And, if a lawsuit is filed, it can take years to get to trial.
The accident was longer than 30 days ago.
