Tampa & Sarasota Personal Injury Attorneys FAQs

sword logo

Do I have a personal injury case?

You must prove the following elements of negligence for a personal injury case to exist:

For instance, let’s say you were riding your bike on the roadway, and another driver was texting while driving. The distracted driver drifts into the bike lane and crashes into you. If you get injured because of the driver’s negligence, you have a strong case for personal injury. The negligent driver had a duty to drive safely, but since they were distracted, they violated their duty, and you got hurt because of that violation.

The same principle would apply if the driver sped through a stop sign or red light and hit you as you were crossing an intersection. Essentially, if you suffered a personal injury in the accident because the driver failed to follow the traffic laws, they can be held liable for the damages you incurred.

Do I Really Need a Personal Injury Lawyer?

Most likely, yes. What many people don’t understand is that, sometimes, even a minor fender bender could result in severe injuries, and when the liable party’s insurance provider doesn’t want to compensate the injured person fairly, the whole situation can turn into a legal nightmare.

The legal process is time-consuming, confusing, and overwhelming for the average person. Organizing and filing documents, submitting the proper requirements, and communicating with the liable party’s insurer, claims adjusters, and lawyers can be intimidating. Insurers may trick you into settling your claim for the lowest amount possible or deny your claim just because they know that you don’t know any better.

With a Florida personal injury lawyer on your side, you won’t have to worry about the legal aspects of your case. All you must do is recover from your injuries. Likewise, studies have found that injured victims who have legal representation received more compensation when compared to those who were not represented by a lawyer. At the very least, consider discussing your case with a Florida personal injury in a free consultation to learn about your legal options.

What if the person that injured me is claiming I was at fault for the accident?

The vast majority of personal injury claims involve the typical he-said, she-said situation because the fault for the accident is unclear or being disputed. Proving fault and liability for an accident is rarely straightforward, and this is where the skills and experience of a Florida personal injury lawyer come in.

The Tampa and Sarasota personal injury lawyers at Matthew Injury Law will evaluate your case from every angle because, in some cases, there may be multiple liable parties in an accident, or the injured party may be partially at-fault for the accident. In this situation, keep in mind that injured parties are still entitled to seek damages, even if they had a hand in causing the accident.

But to secure proper compensation, working with a lawyer that can investigate the case and establish fault and liability for your losses is recommended.
