A personal injury claim arises when someone suffers harm due to the negligence or intentional actions of another party. Common types of personal injury cases include:
In these cases, the injured party (the plaintiff) seeks compensation from the party at fault (the defendant) for damages incurred, such as medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
Understanding the steps involved in a personal injury claim can help you prepare for the process. Here’s what to expect:
Your health is the top priority. After an injury, seek medical care immediately, even if you think your injuries are minor. A doctor will document your injuries, which is critical for your claim.

Your attorney will help you file a claim with the at-fault party’s insurance company. This involves submitting all relevant documentation and evidence to support your claim.
In many cases, the insurance company will offer a settlement. Your attorney will negotiate on your behalf to ensure you receive fair compensation.
If a fair settlement cannot be reached, your case may go to trial. Our legal team is prepared to represent you in court and fight for the compensation you deserve.
In a personal injury case, you can seek various types of damages, including:
Florida follows a comparative negligence rule. This means that if you are partially at fault for the accident, your compensation may be reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you are found to be 20% at fault, your compensation will be reduced by 20%.
In Florida, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims is generally four years from the date of the accident. It’s crucial to initiate your claim within this timeframe to preserve your right to compensation.
