Types of Personal Injury Cases We Handle

 

Car Accidents

In Florida, overage-laden roads regularly deliver distracted, speeding, and impaired drivers to your doorstep. Kevin will hold the at-fault party responsible if you were involved in an automobile accident and work to get you compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and more.

Trucking accidents with large commercial vehicles often lead to catastrophic injuries. Kevin matches the experience and the resources to fight against trucking companies and their insurers, so you can rest assured that you will receive the justice that you deserve.

 

Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcyclists face specific dangers on Tampa’s roads. Kevin knows motorcycle accident cases are not simple, and he will fight to establish liability and recover for you.

 

Slip and Fall

The property owners have a responsibility to keep the premises safe. If you’ve been the victim of an injury caused by dangerous conditions on someone else’s property, Kevin can work to hold those responsible for their negligence.

 

Medical Malpractice

Healthcare providers must provide a requisite standard of care. When they don’t work, the repercussions can be disastrous. Kevin is up for the challenge of pursuing more complex medical malpractice cases and enhancing health justice for victims. 





    Compensation in Personal Injury Cases

    Florida, personal injury victims can claim two types of damages:

     

    Economic Damages:

     

    – Medical expenses (past and future)

    – Lost income and earning potential

    – Property damage

    – Rehabilitation costs

     

    Non-Economic Damages:

     

    – Pain and suffering

    – Emotional distress

    – Loss of enjoyment of life

    – Permanent disability

     

    In rare cases, punitive damages may be awarded if the at-fault party acted grossly negligent or intentionally harmful. Kevin will thoroughly evaluate your case and ensure all possible recovery options have been explored.

    Understanding Negligence

     

    What Is Negligence?

    Liability, in this context, means that someone is held accountable for the consequences that they caused to someone else because he or she did not act reasonably. Four elements must be proven in a personal injury lawsuit to prove negligence exists: 

     

    – Duty of Care: The defendant had a duty to act reasonably towards you.

    – Breach of Duty: The defendant breached that duty.

    – Causation: The breach led to your injuries.

    – Damages:  You were harmed, like you incurred medical bills or lost wages, because of it.
