Visiting someone’s home, walking into a restaurant, or taking a jog in the park should not create unsafe circumstances. For victims of such accidents, the only thing that makes it that much more challenging is fighting with insurance companies for the compensation you are owed. At Shapiro | Delgado, our Bradenton premises liability lawyer will provide you with clear insight into your rights. When you set up a free consultation with our Bradenton personal injury attorney, we can discuss the value of your case and how you can get justice.
Premises liability is the legal doctrine that governs a property owner’s responsibility to maintain the safety of their guests, which includes those invited onto the property and others who access the property for legal reasons. The owner must ensure safe conditions or, if they cannot do so, they must warn visitors of the risks present.
When a property owner fails to do this, whether it is a public or private establishment, they maintain responsibility for the losses of the victim. This may seem very direct and simple. Yet, filing a claim and preserving it while receiving damages is complex. Our Bradenton premises liability lawyer will be able to provide you with legal guidance in knowing if you have a case.
Property owners must maintain safety for visitors. There are various ways they may fail in doing so. Here are some of the most common examples our attorneys see:
If you are the victim of any of these or similar types of accidents, we encourage you to seek legal support. It will be necessary to gather evidence to demonstrate your losses and build a strong case that shows what your losses are.
Our legal team brings more than 100 years of combined legal experience to every case we take on. Our sole goal is to ensure that our clients receive full and fair support for their cases, which means we put the hard work and time into proving your right to compensation and claiming maximum losses. There are several reasons to choose us for your legal needs:
When you have serious injuries because another person did not keep their property safe, you deserve an attorney ready to fight for you. Count on our team to be there.
Victims of a premises liability case have the right to provide evidence of their losses and require the property owner to pay for them. Our objective as your attorney is to examine all potential ways this accident impacts your health and mental well-being. We then put a value on those losses to the best of our ability. Potential losses in a premises liability case may include:
To demonstrate your losses, our legal team speaks to medical experts, researches cases like your own, and works to document every way in which this incident impacts you now and will impact you later. Do not settle your case without speaking to an attorney about your rights.
Victims have just two years from the state of the accident to seek financial compensation through a lawsuit filed in court. This is the statute of limitations in Florida for personal injuries. This means if you do not reach a settlement with the insurance company and must take the case to a judge to decide, you have to file that claim within the two-year period. If you fail to do so, the insurance company or other at-fault parties cannot be required to pay you for your losses. We aim to settle your case prior to that. Our Bradenton premises liability lawyers build an evidence-based claim. These are much harder for the insurance company to refute.
That means they have a harder time denying your claim. However, in situations where the insurance company will not settle, we will go to court. When you have injuries, financial losses, and mental trauma from another person’s actions, do not assume there is no help. Let us be your advocate and hold the insurance company accountable. That insurance company is not working for you, no matter how nice they seem. Instead, you need a trusted advocate who knows how to get results by your side.
You are the victim, with injuries and losses brought on by a property owner’s negligence. At Shapiro | Delgado, we bring the fight to your case. When you hire our legal team to represent you, you can expect to receive full and fair legal guidance as we pursue the maximum allowable claim under the law. Request a free consultation now.
