How Can Our South Miami Lawyers Help You After Your Car Accident?
That might be your question when you come to us, but it’s also our question for you—how can we help you? Let us know during your free consultation, and from there, our South Miami team can create a personalized legal strategy.
Need Help With Insurance?
Motor vehicle accidents usually involve some contact with insurance companies. We can assist with:
- Providing an official statement to the insurer
- Handling all communication with the claims adjuster
- Protecting you from bad-faith insurance practices
- Comparing settlement offers to your financial losses
- Negotiating for appropriate damages
- Making sure adjusters keep their word
Even something as simple as explaining what insurance policy terms mean in plain English is a service we provide. Insurers bank on you feeling intimidated or frustrated, so you won’t put up a fight. Our car accident lawyers will put up our own fight.
Unsure About Whether To File A Lawsuit?
Not all cases involve lawsuits, and not every lawsuit goes all the way to court. Our experienced attorneys can help you recognize if and when a lawsuit is a good option. We may file a lawsuit if the liable insurance policy doesn’t cover the full scope of your damages.
We may also threaten a lawsuit if negotiations with the insurance company come to a standstill. Whatever the case, we explain your financial recovery options and help you decide the best path to maximum compensation.
Have Questions About Bills And Repairs?
When someone reaches out to a lawyer, they’re often already concerned about their situation. We therefore work to assuage any worries you have while also working to safeguard your future. Whether it’s getting car repairs, making appointments, or addressing costs that are already stressing you out, our attorneys find practical solutions.
Unsure About Your Case’s Timeline?
Florida generally gives you two years to file a personal injury lawsuit, but that’s not always the case in car accidents. For instance, if the driver fled the scene, the statute of limitations might not start until after the culprit is found. Likewise, if you were incapacitated, the clock might not start until you are capable of taking legal action.
Our attorneys can help you understand how long a hit-and-run investigation takes, what to do if you or a loved one was incapacitated, and what other factors influence your case’s progression. Whatever the scenario, we clarify how long we have to collect the information needed to build your case.
Our Personal Injury Lawyers Fight To Recover Your Health Care Costs
As an injured car accident claimant, you could receive compensation through a legal claim or lawsuit. That includes all the costs associated with recuperating, including:
- X-rays, MRIs, CT scans, and other imaging scans
- Other diagnostic testing
- Corrective and cosmetic surgeries
- Medical devices and equipment
- Physical, occupational, and other therapy
- Psychological counseling and medications
- Pain relief prescriptions
- Chiropractic adjustments and care
- Alternative care like acupuncture or massages
These are just some of the medical expenses we can include in your demand for compensation. Below are some common car accident injuries that we can represent.
Bruises, Cuts, And Soft-Tissue Injuries
Don’t underestimate the impact of these injuries—pain, scarring, internal injuries. All of these can affect your quality of life, ability to work, and mental health.
Broken Bones
Healthcare.gov estimates that a broken leg can cost you up to $7,500. A serious car crash could cause multiple fractures, multiplying the expense. We fight for damages for each fracture and its long-term effect on your health.
Whiplash
Far from a minor injury, whiplash has been linked to reduced quality of life years after an accident, according to BMC Public Health. A Florida whiplash attorney from our firm can help you get fair compensation, working to ensure your pain and expenses aren’t undervalued.
Brain And Spinal Cord Injuries
These injuries often leave victims with long-term or permanent consequences. We therefore pursue damages that consider lifetime costs.
Fatal Injuries
Our South Miami wrongful death lawyers can help your family recover financial compensation for the cost of your lost loved one’s injuries. From attempts to save their life to hospice care provided to ease their passing, our lawyers seek damages to help your family.
