You probably have a few questions. That’s absolutely fine. We are here to help answer any questions that you might have. For every question, there is an answer. Below we have some of the most common questions we receive. If you still have a question you are not sure about, please call us and we will be happy to help you.
Q: How much does it cost to hire an attorney?
A: We work on a contingency basis, which means we will
only get paid if you win your case. We will receive our legal
fees as a percentage of the total amount of compensation you
recover.
Q: Will My case go to trial?
A: Most personal injury cases settle out of court, but it
will depend on the details of your case.
Q: What if I am partially at fault for the
accident?
A: If you are partially at fault for an accident, you may
still be able to recover compensation for your injuries. Florida
uses a comparative negligence system, which means that your
compensation will be reduced by the percentage of fault you are
assigned. For example, you are found to be 20% at fault for an
accident, you can only recover 80% of the total damages.
Q: Do I need an attorney to file a personal injury
claim?
A: By law, you are not required to have an attorney, but
insurance companies could take advantage of injury victims who
attempt to negotiate a settlement on their own. A personal
injury lawyer knows how to work with insurance companies to
maximize the compensation you recover.
Q: How much money will I receive from my
injury?
A: The amount you receive really varies case by case depending
on different factors. You could receive anywhere from a few
thousand dollars, to hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Q: How long will it take to receive my money?
A: After a settlement or verdict has been reached, it will not
take long to get the monetary damages from your personal injury
case – perhaps a couple weeks after the agreement has been
signed but it could be sooner.
