There are a few basic requirements your case must meet for you to file a personal injury lawsuit:
If your circumstances meet all the above criteria, you might have a personal injury case. However, a free consultation with an experienced attorney can give you a better idea of your legal options for recovering the compensation you need.
At Zervos & Calta, PLLC, we understand that you may be in a financially challenging situation. We don’t want legal costs to prevent you from seeking the money you deserve after a life-altering accident.
That’s why we work on a contingency fee basis, meaning we don’t get paid unless we obtain a settlement or courtroom verdict in your favor. You pay nothing upfront while we build a compelling case for you. We also offer a free initial consultation to help you evaluate your case and how we may be able to help you. There’s nothing to lose by talking with us and learning about your options.
You may believe you have an open and shut case. But rarely are accident cases so simple. It can take aggressive intervention by an attorney to prove your claim and pursue the compensation you deserve for your injuries and financial losses.
How do you know if you need the help of a personal injury attorney? Consider the following:
Maximize your compensation – Individuals with legal assistance may be able to recover money more easily than people who attempt to navigate the claim process alone. A skilled personal injury attorney knows how to build a strong case and combat common insurance company tactics to keep payouts low. They can also calculate your losses to ensure they are all covered.
At Zervos & Calta, PLLC, we know that every personal injury case is unique. The value of a case depends on numerous factors, including the severity of your injuries and the cause of the accident. Online calculators may claim to evaluate how much money your case is worth. Still, the truth is that only an experienced personal injury attorney can help you estimate the value of your case.
Our legal team takes the time to get to know you and your unique situation before assigning a dollar amount to your claim. We’ll thoroughly investigate your situation before giving honest, straightforward feedback about financial expectations.
Florida’s statute of limitations gives accident victims just two years from the accident date to file a personal injury lawsuit seeking compensation for their financial losses. However, specific details in your case may change that deadline. Talking to a skilled attorney is your best option to avoid missing any critical deadlines.
Most people want to settle their cases as quickly as possible so they can move on with their lives. However, the time it takes to resolve your case depends on several factors, including the complexity of the case, the severity of your injuries, and the amount of money involved. Some cases can be resolved in as little as four to six weeks, while others can take years.
Often, insurance companies want to settle quickly and move on to the next claim. They count on you being financially strapped and eager to settle for anything they throw at you. Initial offers tend to be well below what you may deserve.
Are you concerned about the time it may take to settle your claim or take your case to court? Discuss your situation with a knowledgeable personal injury attorney. They can thoroughly evaluate your situation and give you a more accurate time frame for your case. At Zervos & Calta, PLLC, we want to answer your questions and help prepare you for what’s ahead.
