To win compensation for the injuries you’ve sustained in your auto accident, you and your attorney will have to first satisfy the burden of proof. Simply put, this means that you’ll have to prove that you were injured (at least primarily) due to another party’s negligence. This isn’t always straightforward, so it’s important you hire a competent attorney to represent you. Your attorney will then work to gather and present various forms of evidence to prove your claim. Some of the most useful types of evidence when it comes to auto accident injury claims are as follows:
Once you and your lawyer successfully satisfy the burden of proof, you should receive compensation for the economic and non-economic damages you’ve incurred as a result of your accident. Economic damages deal with the tangible, financial damages caused by your accident, such as the cost of surgeries, ongoing medical care, and lost wages from being unable to return to work.
Non-economic damages, on the other hand, deal with intangible damages caused by your accident. These can include pain and suffering, the loss of enjoyment of life, emotional trauma, and more. That said, these are slightly harder to quantify, so you’ll need a team of competent auto accident lawyers in your corner who can effectively prove the extent to which your accident has affected your life. Fortunately, if you’re reading this, you are in the right place.
Let’s say you were the passenger in your friend’s car when suddenly, he crashes, and you sustain an injury. It’s a tough situation, as nobody wants to sue their friends, especially for an accident. However, this does not change the fact that you still require financial compensation to help you rehabilitate from your injuries. Fortunately, the truth is, as an injured passenger, you can sue the driver’s insurance company, instead of the driver himself. This means that in most cases, you can win the compensation you need without costing your friend a dime.
People often wonder what to do if an uninsured motorist hits them. Fortunately, this is what uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage is for. Essentially, if an uninsured motorist injured you, you can file a claim against your own insurance policy to receive the financial compensation you need to get back on your feet again. However, before proceeding, you should speak with our legal team to learn more about how we can help maximize your recovery in an uninsured or underinsured motorist claim.
The answer to this question varies, and it depends largely upon whether we can settle your claim before going to trial. Many clients are relieved to know that we settle most of our cases outside of the courtroom setting, winning them the compensation they deserve without ever having to go to court. However, if our firm determines the ultimate payout will most likely be far greater by taking your case to trial, your case can take anywhere from a few months to a few years. No matter your case, you can rest assured that our firm will offer you quality legal advice, have your best interests at heart, and will never proceed without your explicit permission to do so.
Generally, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims in Florida is two years. This means that auto accident victims typically have up to two years to file a personal injury claim. That said, you should understand that the longer you wait, the more challenging it can become to satisfy the burden of proof in your personal injury claim. For this reason, the sooner you bring your claim to our firm’s attention, the better. Importantly, if you wait any longer than two years from the date of your accident, you’ll most likely permanently lose your right to sue. Don’t let this happen. Reach out to our auto accident lawyers today.
