Types of Personal Injury Cases We Handle
- Car and Truck Crashes—Common causes of car and truck crashes include speeding, drunk driving, aggressive driving behaviors, driving while fatigued, distracted driving, and more. A personal injury attorney can help with investigating a collision when the liable party is not initially obvious.
- Motorcycles Crashes—According to Florida’s Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, there were 7,719 motorcyclist injuries across the state in 2019. Motorcyclists enjoy the sunshine and year-round good weather in Florida, but speeding and distracted drivers pose serious risk to the vulnerable road users.
- Bicycle Crashes—Cyclists, like motorcyclists, are vulnerable road users who lack the protection of being in an enclosed vehicle with state-of-the-art safety features. As a result, when a cyclist is hit by a driver, the injuries are often life-threatening.
- Slip and Falls—Slip and falls can become personal injury cases when it is apparent that the premises was not properly maintained, resulting in the injury. For instance, if a handrail is loose, the lighting is inadequate, or the floor has been left slippery or cluttered, the property owner may be responsible for the injuries that ensue.
- Catastrophic Injuries—Catastrophic injuries are injuries to the spinal cord or brain, ones that result in disfigurement, or amputation. These are the cases that require emergency room care and a potentially lengthy stay in the hospital’s intensive care unit.
- Accidents Involving Minors—According to Florida Health, the state leads the country for most drowning deaths for children ages 1-4. In addition to accidents around water, children can be harmed by unsafe toys, on property that is poorly maintained, and in traffic. In addition to physical injuries, small children face long-term psychological damage when serious accidents occur.
