Homestead Personal Injury

After any serious injury, your life changes immediately. From your day-to-day routine to your long-term goals, nothing is the same as it was. On top of this, you may face mounting medical expenses, which can be difficult—if not impossible—to pay if you’ve missed work because of your injuries. If the accident was the result of another’s negligence, it only adds to the frustration. However, as an accident victim, you have options. Through a personal injury lawsuit, you may be able to obtain significant monetary compensation that will help you pay all of your expenses as well as provide you compensation for the impact that the accident had on your life.

Accident victims who successfully bring a personal injury claim are entitled to recover damages from the at-fault party. While damages vary widely between cases, as a general rule, Florida law allows victims to recover compensation for their economic and non-economic damages.

Economic damages refer to those out-of-pocket expenses that you incurred as a result of the accident. For example, medical bills, the cost of future medical care, lost wages and any decrease in your ability to earn an income in the future are all economic damages.

Non-economic damages refer to the emotional and psychological impact that an accident had on your life. The most common type of non-economic damages are for a victim’s physical pain and suffering; however, there are other types of non-economic damages as well, including:

• Mental anguish,
• Permanent impairment or disfigurement,
• Loss of enjoyment of life, and
• Loss of companionship.

Identifying all of your economic and non-economic damages is crucial because only by doing this can you ensure that you are fairly compensated for everything you’ve been through and will be confronted with in the future.

It is important to keep in mind that while a personal injury case is brought against the at-fault party, more often than not, it is their insurance company that defends the case. Insurance companies have teams of highly paid lawyers whose sole job is to minimize the value of your claim—or outright deny it whenever possible. This is why most accident victims seek out an experienced Homestead personal injury lawyer to assist in the preparation and handling of their case.
