Our skilled personal injury attorneys can help increase your chances of recovering fair compensation and achieve the best outcome for your case.

It is crucial that if you get in a car accident, you hire an attorney to conduct a thorough investigation after an accident. Your attorney can help you get compensation by proving that you did not cause the accident by establishing the following:

You stand to win a personal injury claim if your personal injury lawyer can prove that the other party was negligent. Some good examples of negligence include failure to yield, drunk driving, and distracted driving.

Although Florida allots large sums of money toward road construction and maintenance every year, some car crashes still occur due to poor road conditions, road design, or defective construction.

If your car or the other driver’s car had a defective part before the accident occurred, you can likely file a claim against the vehicle manufacturer. If your attorney can prove that the car accident resulted from a defective part or manufacturing problems you may be able to seek compensation, regardless of which party caused the accident.

If you can prove liability in your auto accident case, you can seek damages from the responsible party. After your car accident in Florida, our attorneys can help you recover compensation for things like:

• Lost wages
• Injuries
• Property damage
• Hospital and medical bills
• Pain and suffering

If an accident causes the death of a loved one, your attorney can help the surviving family seek damages by filing a wrongful death claim. This claim can help the surviving family recover for a loved one’s medical and burial expenses, loss of companionship, and loss of future earnings.

After a car accident in Florida, insurance carriers may attempt to avoid compensating you.

They will do this by:

The most important step before filing car accident-related claims is to ensure that a full investigation is conducted. This is why you should involve the police. You can submit a police report online or over the phone so that your account of the events is considered. Your attorney will also talk to potential witnesses on your behalf.

Just like court-related tasks, sending a pre-suit personal injury claim can be a confusing process. You need to determine whether you are making a claim against a negligent driver, car manufacturer, parts manufacturer, or governmental entity.

Our personal injury lawyers will ease your stress by offering sound legal advice and assisting you with understanding your injury claims. Once hired, your attorney will communicate with the insurance companies involved on your behalf.

When a settlement for your claim is not reached, your attorney may file a lawsuit and take your claim to trial. Our skilled Florida personal injury lawyers will pursue your claim and help you receive just compensation in court, depending on your situation.
