The timeline varies depending on the complexity of the case, medical recovery, and whether litigation is necessary. Some cases resolve in months, others take longer.
Florida follows a comparative negligence rule, which means you may still recover compensation, reduced by your percentage of fault.
Many personal injury cases settle out of court, but if a fair settlement cannot be reached, your attorney may recommend filing a lawsuit.
Most personal injury cases are handled on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing unless compensation is recovered.
Seek medical attention, document the scene if possible, report the incident, and contact a Florida personal injury lawyer before speaking with insurance adjusters.
Yes. Insurance companies often offer settlements that are far less than what your claim is worth. A personal injury attorney can review the offer and negotiate for fair compensation.
You may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, future treatment, and other related damages.
In most cases, Florida law allows two years from the date of the injury to file a personal injury lawsuit, though some exceptions may apply.
If you were injured due to someone else’s negligence—such as a car accident, slip and fall, or unsafe property—you may have a valid personal injury claim under Florida law.
