Fighting for You After a Florida Personal Injury
If you were hurt in an accident caused by someone else's carelessness, you have the right to seek payment for your medical bills, lost wages, and suffering. Florida personal injury law is designed to help victims of negligence get back on their feet.
Common Florida personal injury claims include:
- Car, truck, and motorcycle accidents.
- Slip and fall incidents on unsafe property.
- Accidents at work or on a construction site.
- Injuries from defective products.
- Medical malpractice or nursing home neglect.
Our Florida personal injury lawyers know how to prove your case and hold the at-fault party accountable.
Proving Your Florida Personal Injury Claim?
To win a personal injury case in Florida, you must prove that the other party was "negligent." This means showing they failed to act with reasonable care, and their failure caused your injury. Even if you were partially at fault, Florida's "comparative negligence" rule may still allow you to recover damages for the portion of the accident caused by the other party.
You have the right to compensation if we can prove:
- Duty: The other party had a responsibility to act safely (e.g., a driver's duty to watch the road).
- Breach: They failed in that duty (e.g., they were texting and driving).
- Causation: Their failure directly caused your accident and injuries.
- Damages: You suffered real losses, such as medical bills, lost income, and pain.
We investigate your accident, gather evidence, and build a strong claim to show exactly how the other party was responsible.
Know Your Rights: Compensation for Your Injuries
Florida law allows you to demand payment for all the losses you suffered from your injury. This isn't just about your current bills; it's also about your future needs and the personal impact on your life. We fight for every dollar you deserve.
Compensation for a Florida personal injury can include:
- Economic Damages: Covers all your medical expenses (past and future), lost wages, and reduced earning capacity.
- Non-Economic Damages: Money for your physical pain, mental anguish, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life.
- Punitive Damages: In rare cases, these may be awarded to punish the at-fault party for extremely reckless or intentional wrongdoing.
Our experienced Florida injury attorneys will calculate the full value of your claim to demand the maximum compensation available.
