EXPERIENCED INJURY LAWYERS

After An Accident, Our Seasoned Personal Injury Attorneys Can Work On Your Case.

Miami Personal Injury Lawyer

Understanding personal injury law in Florida and what are its legal benefits.

Personal injury law covers the damages that an individual may suffer as a result of an auto accident, an accident at work, malpractice, the use of a defective product, among others, as well as the compensation and benefits to which he is entitled; depending on what happened in each case.

Time limits for bringing a personal injury Action Time limits

The time limit to file a lawsuit tends to vary depending on the nature of your case and the damages incurred. In most cases, the time limit is four years. In other words, if you have exceeded the time allowed to file your lawsuit, you lose the right to file a claim, and the right to compensation. This can also take place if you have suffered damages from using a defective product; you had a car accident or have experienced other common types of injuries that may qualify as a personal injury case. However, when it comes to negligence, the time to file a claim is reduced to two years (mainly cases of medical malpractice and wrongful death).

There are also exceptions that may extend the statute of limitations. For example, if the damage caused is discovered much later, such as cases of medical malpractice related to infertility where the person becomes aware of the injuries at the moment in which they plan to have children. There are cases where minors, must present a demand when they reach legal age. At Gallardo Law Firm we recommend that you consult a Miami personal injury lawyer as soon as possible so that you know the time you have to start a lawsuit depending on your specific injury.

When Is The Right Time To Pursue A Personal Injury Claim?

Usually, this time depends on the person needing medical treatment due to the injuries suffered. Since a Miami personal injury lawyer will have to gather all this information in a file that allows him/her to support his/her case and assess the details that can be used as arguments for getting the fair compensation through the insurance company that is evaluating the claim. The negotiation process is estimated to take 3 to 6 months after the completion of the treatment. People who have suffered injuries have fourteen days to seek medical attention and must then start their claim as soon as possible.

Why should you file everything that happened and act quickly on your injury claim process?

You must act quickly when filing a personal injury claim, is vital to the outcome of your case. This ensures that your Miami personal injury lawyer can complete your case promptly. If you collect and hold on to all documentation of your tests, go to the doctor and perform the required medical exams, you will end up losing evidence that may help prove your case. Other beneficial actions you can take would be taking pictures, knowing how the law applies to your specific situation, determine what your level of responsibility should be, and how you can find the best lawyers in your area.

How much compensation can you get from a personal injury claim?

Estimating the costs of the damages, you can receive in a personal injury claim can be difficult since some compensable losses could be biased, while pain and suffering, and the psychological damages, may not be considered. You can turn to a Gallardo Law Firm lawyer with experience in personal injury damages, as only an experienced attorney can analyze your medical, rehabilitation, out-of-pocket costs, loss of income due to your recovery, property damage if any, as well as your pain and suffering.
