If you were injured due to the negligent action or inaction of another person, you might be able to bring a personal injury claim or case in a court of law.
Examples of the types of situations that could constitute a basis for a personal injury case include:
As each situation is unique, it’s important to contact a trusted Sarastoa personal injury lawyer as soon as you think you may have a case.
The statute of limitations in Florida for negligence is usually four years, counting backward from the date of the occurrence. There are some exceptions to this, but this is the general rule.
One important exception is if an injury from this third party caused a wrongful death in your personal injury case. In this context, the estate executors must bring a case two years from the deceased’s death date.
Economic damages refer to the monetary losses suffered by a person or entity due to another person’s or entity’s actions or failure to act. These damages may include lost profits, lost wages, medical expenses, and other costs associated with the harm suffered. The purpose of awarding economic damages is to compensate the injured party for their losses and help them return to their financial position before the harm occurs.
Non-economic damages are non-tangible damages that also stem from a personal injury suit. These damages do not have a real dollar amount, as they account for subjective matters such as pain and suffering, emotional distress, and a loss of society.
First, when selecting a personal injury lawyer, it is important to find a local attorney that has the time to sit and discuss your case with you. Second, look for attorneys with a proven track record of successful settlements and jury verdicts, like Shapiro | Delgado.
