When Can You File a Personal Injury Claim in Miami?
The following criteria needs to apply to your case if you want to pursue a personal injury claim in Miami.
Someone else’s negligence caused your injury
You were injured because a party that owed you a duty of care violated that duty of care and caused circumstances that led to your injury.
Your injury led to losses
It’s certainly not enough to have a negligent party violate their duty of care to you. You must have also sustained injuries that led to financial losses.
You’re within the legal time limit
You must file your personal injury lawsuit within two years from the date of the accident (statute of limitations).
You weren’t more than 50% at fault
Under Florida’s comparative negligence laws, you can still pursue a lawsuit even if you were partially at fault.
You have basic documentation or evidence
You are able to provide evidence that negligence is what caused your accident and injury.
7 Steps To Follow if You Get Injured
It’s important to know what to do after a personal injury accident. Follow these simple steps to protect your legal rights and options.
- Get medical attention: Whether it’s a slip and fall or a car accident, get medical care immediately after your accident. Also, keep up with any future doctors appointments.
- Report the incident: File a report at the location where your accident happened. You can also alert local police who can arrive on scene, and you can file a report with them as well.
- Document the event: This can include everything from taking pictures of the accident scene, your injuries, obtaining surveillance footage of the accident, and collecting witness statements.
- Avoid making statements: Never admit fault.
- Do not speak to the insurance company alone: Do not speak with the insurance companies without first consulting with your legal representative.
- Keep all medical and expense records: This will help show the compensation you are entitled to.
- Contact a Miami personal injury lawyer: Seek legal advice to help you proceed appropriately.
The Personal Injury Claim Process
The personal injury claims process consists of several steps. At Bernstein & Maryanoff, our process is as follows:
- We provide a free case review where we help you understand the strength of your case, possible legal outcomes, and your legal rights and options.
- If we take on your case, there will be a thorough investigation process. This process involves identifying responsible parties, collecting evidence, speaking with involved parties, collecting expert testimony, and putting together the elements that prove fault.
- We will calculate all your economic and non-economic losses.
- We will then negotiate with insurance companies and other legal parties to secure a fair settlement.
- If a settlement cannot be reached, we’re prepared to represent you in court.
If this is your first time pursuing a personal injury case, we help simplify the legal process, will stay on top of important timelines and deadlines, and will build a case rooted in evidence and fact so that you can focus on healing and recovery.
Miami Personal Injury Claims: What We Can Get You
When negotiating with insurance companies and other involved parties, our attorneys can help you recover essential compensatory damages and, if relevant, punitive damages.
Economic damages involve financial losses related to medical bills and expenses, lost wages and income, property damage, and other calculable losses.
Non-economic damages refer to the incalculable losses, such as pain and suffering, emotional distress, and scarring and disfigurement.
In rare cases, we may pursue punitive damages. These damages are designed to punish a defendant for their actions
