recent case results
Every single personal injury case is different. The value of your case will depend on:
- How serious are your injuries?
- What are your current out-of-pocket costs?
- What expenses and economic consequences will you probably have in the future?
- Did you contribute to your accident? If so, what’s your proportionate share of the blame?
- How have the accident and resulting injury affected your quality of life?
- Will you be able to go back to work?
- Will your ability to earn an income be affected?
Typically, the more severe the injury and trauma, the higher the value of a related personal injury dispute.
When you’re injured due to the negligence of another, Florida law allows you to seek compensation for economic and non-economic damages. Combined, these awards help to make you financially whole and make up for things like:
- Medical bills
- Rehabilitation
- Lost wages, income, and benefits
- Disability,
- Property damage,
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Loss of consortium
- Disfigurement and scarring
- Mental anguish
- Pain and suffering
- PTSD and depression
- And more.
If a defendant acts intentionally or with gross negligence, punitive damages may also be available to you. You can count on Catania & Catania Injury Lawyers to help you get the full value of your award.
Yes. If you share blame for your accident, you can still get compensation from other parties involved in the accident. Florida operates under a pure comparative negligence system. This means that anyone who contributes to an accident shares responsibility for the outcome.
As long as you’re not entirely at fault, you can recover some compensation for your injuries. Your damages will just be reduced by your percentage of fault for the accident. The less fault assigned to you, the more money you can ultimately walk away with when your case is over.
There are no upfront costs to hire a lawyer to represent you. Usually, it costs anywhere from 33% to 40% of your award. This is because they work on contingency, meaning that their fee totally depends on whether they can win your case.
The statute of limitations for most personal injury lawsuits in the state of Florida is two years from the date of the injury.
You might have more or less time to act, depending on the circumstances. For instance, cases involving the government, death, and medical malpractice are subject to accelerated timelines. That can be anywhere from a few months to two years. On the other hand, you may have additional time if the statute of limitations is tolled because the victim is a minor or the defendant can’t be located.
