Fort Lauderdale
Personal Injury Lawyers
Supporting You

Our personal injury law firm offers Florida residents like you representation on a contingency fee basis. You don’t pay a dime for our services upfront. We only get paid for our representation if we win a settlement on your behalf.

Contingency agreements make quality legal representation available to almost anyone. You don’t have to go up against powerful insurance companies on your own. Working with our team means a level playing field for all. 

We understand that the severity of your accident injuries may make it difficult for you to prioritize a personal injury lawsuit. Even so, there are benefits to contacting a personal injury attorney in Fort Lauderdale, FL, sooner rather than later. Our representation can help you:

Fend Off Pushy Insurance Claims Adjusters

The party responsible for your personal injury accident likely has insurance. Depending on your circumstances, you may have the right to file for financial support through a relevant insurance provider. However, do so with caution. Insurance adjusters are not your friends.

Most insurance claims adjusters want to deny your right to accident compensation at every turn. They can use underhanded techniques to do so, including:

• Purposefully slowing down your insurance claim filing process
• Removing key evidence from the accident scene
• Denying you access to data about your accident
• Pressuring you to accept an insufficient settlement offer
• Refusing to communicate with you about your losses

Most insurance providers will try to make your recovery as difficult as possible, so when you receive a settlement offer, you accept it without consideration. Our experienced attorneys don’t let these companies get away with these bad-faith tactics. 

Prevent Assertions of Comparative Negligence

Florida operates on a modified understanding of comparative negligence. The state’s comparative negligence law states that anyone who takes more than 50% of the blame for their accident may not recover damages from a defendant. 

Opposing attorneys may argue that you are partially responsible for the accident. If you don’t challenge those accusations of fault, you may lose your right to compensation. We can hold responsible parties accountable for underhanded arguments, pointing out discrepancies in their attempts to blame you for your losses.

Reject Insufficient Settlement Offers

Most personal injury cases come to a resolution out of court. You can ask an attorney to arrange settlement negotiations between you and a liable party, during which you can discuss your right to financial support. Our presence throughout this process can keep a liable party from lowballing your right to recover.

Our legal process lets us estimate the value of your case before you enter settlement negotiations. We consider your out-of-pocket expenses and non-economic losses, which may include reduced quality of life, loss of companionship, and emotional trauma. 

In finding the total of your losses, we establish the baseline value of the settlement we intend to demand from an at-fault party. Your attorney can then stick to their guns as we fight for your right to monetary compensation that fairly addresses your losses.

Investigate the Accident

You can focus on getting the physical care you need to address your injuries while our team:

• Interviews witnesses
• Gathers electronic data relevant to your losses
• Takes photos of environmental damage and physical debris
• Contacts expert witnesses
• Secures a copy of a police report

After emergency responders address your bodily injuries, we can request a report detailing the extent of your losses. This evidence makes it easier to demand a fair personal injury settlement.

Your Fort Lauderdale personal injury attorney can assess your economic and non-economic damages to arrive at a fair compensation figure that can make a difference in your life. 

Some of the expenses that can factor into your compensation include:

• Medical Expenses: After an initial assessment, medical costs can skyrocket. Compensation helps cover these bills and ensures the victim receives the best care without financial stress.
• Lost Wages: Injuries often mean time away from work, which can lead to a significant loss in earnings. Compensation seeks to fill this financial gap, ensuring victims can pay their bills and maintain their standard of living.
• Pain and Suffering: Compensation for pain and suffering acknowledges a person’s trauma and offers a tangible means to cope.
• Property Damage: Personal injuries sometimes come with damaged belongings, like cars, in an accident. Compensation helps replace or repair these items.
• Future Expenses: Some injuries have long-term effects, requiring ongoing medical care or therapy. Compensation can be forward-looking, ensuring victims have funds for future treatments.

With the knowledge of our personal injury attorneys in Fort Lauderdale, FL, we strive to ensure that every victim gets comprehensive compensation that reflects their true needs and losses.

If you’d prefer to avoid going to trial, we can arrange a private, out-of-court meeting with a negligent party.  These meetings allow you to meet face-to-face with a liable party. However, not every at-fault party will admit that they caused your accident. 

If you can’t get a liable party to discuss the value of your case with you, our Fort Lauderdale personal injury attorneys can present your case to a judge. You may then argue for your right to damages in court, where a judge can decide if a liable party owes you financial support.
