Personal injury case can be any damage caused by the negligence of another. It can be damage to your body or loss of another's consortium or lost wages. A personal injury case is simply a civil law suit generally a negligence complaint. Most injury cases are done by attorneys on a percentage basis meaning you do not pay attorney fee's upfront. The fee is taken out of the recovery the attorney is able to collect for the client. The standard percentage fee is 33 1/3 and 40 percentage if the case is filed to recognize the extra work needed from the attorney to work the case towards trial. The costs of the case are also generally advanced by the attorney and recovered from the settlement or award. Costs can be high to get through trial and one issue to be considered before filing a case or taking the settlement. Costs include experts deposition mediation investigation trial display and presentation. Insurance companies are a for profit business who like all business try to maximize their profits. Paying out money for claims cost money, so obviously the insurance company tries to hold their money and pay out as little as possible. This includes your insurance company. This is the main reason you need a good attorney to fight to get your claim paid fast and for what is worth. I try to settle a claim as fast as possible for you, however if necessary I can and will file your case with the court and ask a jury to award you money. The decision to settle your claim is yours at all times. It is your case.
Personal Injury
The most popular personal injury claim is an automobile accident. In Florida we are a no fault state meaning to be a legal driver you need to carry PIP personal injury protection. This insurance pays the first $10,000 of medical expenses and or lost wages. Whether or not the accident is your fault your PIP pays this first amount. At the accident scene you will get an information exchange. With this I can order the police report. We then order the insurance policies and will immediately let you know what the at fault party's coverage amount. If the at fault driver has no insurance, you can use your own UM uninsured or under insured insurance if you carry it in your own policy. When you are finished treating for your injuries, we send a demand to the at fault party. After negotiations we accept the offer or file your case. A slip and fall case is very similar. Someone's negligence caused you to fall and the fall caused you damages such as an injury. We order the insurance policy file a claim and send demand when your treatment is finished. In every case it may be important to take pictures of cars the scene injuries etc. You also want to explain to your attorney all your damages. Things like not being able to cut the lawn or perform household chores or out of pocket expenses.
Dog bites are a special type of case. Dog bites are generally strict liability meaning if the dog caused you damage the owner is liable. There are exceptions for incidents on properly marked homesteads. Also, like always most of your homeowner policies have a dog exception so they will not pay or defend a claim for you.
