Miami-Dade County has some of South Florida’s most dangerous roadways. The density of traffic, the wide-laned highways, and other factors lead to dozens of collisions each day––some of which result in serious injuries and fatalities.
You don’t have to navigate the claims process alone after suffering harm in a collision. Our West Little River car accident lawyers advocate for injured claimants by pursuing compensation for their hardships. The Law Offices of Anidjar & Levine is ready to break ground on your case today, no matter what it entails. You focus on getting better. We’ll manage everything else.
Florida Limits How Long You Have to File a Lawsuit
The state of Florida wants to ensure that civil lawsuits progress in a timely manner through the court system. That’s why it imposes a four-year filing deadline on most car accident lawsuits, per Florida Statutes § 95.11(3)(a). Matters change slightly if you lost a loved one; here, you would have two years to file your case.
The court system has no tolerance for cases filed outside of the statute of limitations. If you file your case outside of its deadline, you could lose the right to seek damages.
We’re Committed to Recovering Everything You Need
Here are three things we want to share about pursuing compensation with our West Little River personal injury lawyers:
Your Losses Depend on Your Situation
Your recoverable damages depend on many factors unique to your situation, including your missed time from work and injuries’ severity. When evaluating your losses, we will consider:
- Any changes to your mental health
- Whether you contributed to the collision
- Your anticipated healthcare needs
- The cause of the accident
- The medical care you require
We don’t want to leave any loss unaccounted for in your case. We want you to walk away from the claims process with all the funds you need to move on.
You Can Recover Both Economic and Non-Economic Damages
You can recover more than medical bills in the aftermath of a West Little River car accident. You can recover every hardship related to your situation, including:
- Healthcare expenses, including hospitalization and the ambulance
- Lost income, wages, tips, bonuses, and promotions
- Pain and suffering and inconvenience
- Mental anguish
- The cost of replacing or repairing your car
- Rideshare expenses
- Childcare costs
- Funeral fees and burial costs
- Loss of consortium
You Can Recover Damages Even If You Contributed to the Incident
You may know that Florida’s a no-fault insurance state. This means you can seek damages from your personal injury protection (PIP) coverage regardless of who caused the accident. However, your role in the accident could ultimately affect how much you can recover.
For instance, if you caused 20 percent of the crash, this would reduce your compensation by that percentage. This makes determining fault for your accident crucial. We don’t want you to lose a single dollar because the other party alleges you were at fault. Evidence to support your role in the Collison could comprise traffic camera footage, witnesses’ testimony, and the police report.
Our Accident Lawyers in West Little River Offer Comprehensive Legal Services
When you partner with the Law Offices of Anidjar & Levine, you can trust our team to:
Prove Negligence
The American Bar Association (ABA) requires us to prove that your collision was caused by negligence to recover damages. Establishing negligence involves showing:
- Another party had a duty of care. This means they should have taken reasonable precautions to avoid hurting others.
- Another party violated their duty of care by putting others at risk of harm.
- You were hurt because of the other party’s actions.
- You’ve incurred various losses related to the collision.
Calculate Your Losses
You might have a good idea of what your medical bills are worth. But what about the damage to your car? What about your pain and suffering? Our lawyers will establish what you’re owed by using your injury-related invoices and receipts. We will also consider your situation as a whole when advocating for what you need.
File Your Insurance Claim
First, we’ll send the liable insurance company a demand letter, which outlines your accident’s details and what you’re requesting. Filing your insurance claim involves reviewing the liable policy, understanding your damages, and negotiating for what you deserve.
Protect You from Bad Faith Insurance Practices
Insurance companies make money by selling policies, and some do everything possible to avoid paying claims. We can champion your legal rights if the insurance company:
- Refuses to answer your phone calls and messages
- Offers less compensation than you deserve
- Pressures you into accepting an unfair offer
- Gives you misleading information
- Denies your claim without a valid reason
File Your Civil Lawsuit
Reality TV doesn’t do a good job of portraying civil lawsuits. It can take weeks (even months) to resolve these cases. Going to court is also more than requesting compensation from the judge and jury; it requires gathering evidence, applying the law to your case, and protecting yourself from defense attorneys.
Rest assured, most car accident cases are settled before they go to court. Yet, you can trust that if a lawsuit is necessary, we’ll do everything possible to resolve it.
