Becoming injured due to another person’s negligence can be a frightening experience. A personal injury accident happens at any time or any place while you’re simply going through your day. No one anticipates an accident which could leave them severely hurt and possibly incapacitated for years to come.

If you were hurt due to another’s negligence, you deserve justice. Your case is unique and requires the expertise of a personal injury lawyer to help you recover the compensation you deserve. Entrust an Ocoee personal injury lawyer with the Umansky Law Firm to step in and resolve your legal issues while you focus on recovering.

What is a Personal Injury Case?

People can become injured a variety of ways, but a personal injury case is defined by the fact the accident should not have occurred had the responsible party adhered to the duty of care. In a personal injury case, it is another’s negligence which leads to an injury.

The realm of personal injury law tackles a wide range of accident cases:

  • Car accidents
  • Big truck accidents
  • Motorcycle Accidents
  • Slip & Fall Accidents
  • Product Liability
  • Premises Liability
  • Bicycle & Pedestrian Accidents
  • Medical Malpractice

Potential Damages in a Personal Injury Case

If you’ve experienced a personal injury due to someone else’s negligence, you may be able to receive compensation for:

  • Medical Bills
  • Lost Wages
  • Disability, Including Scarring And Disfigurement
  • Impaired Earning Ability
  • Pain And Suffering
  • Property Damage

Other losses may be possible depending on the facts surrounding your case. Be sure to discuss potential awards with your Ocoee personal injury attorney.

Beware of Insurance Companies

While they may appear to have your best interests at heart, they don’t. They are offering you a one-time settlement to make sure you can’t get any more money. Don’t talk to anyone or sign anything before talking to a personal injury lawyer. You could be losing thousands of dollars that you need to heal and get back to your life.

Before speaking with any insurance representative, make sure your rights are being protected by an attorney who represents your interests.

Florida Statute of Limitations

Florida’s Statute of Limitations gives a plaintiff just two years to file a legal action for a personal injury. The two-year clock starts ticking the day of your accident rather than the day you discovered your injury. If you don’t file by the end of the two year period, you will lose the right to file a lawsuit.

Building a good, strong case takes time. While two years seems like a long time, contacting an Ocoee personal injury lawyer as soon as you can gives your case the time it needs grow strong. Your lawyer will need adequate time to gather evidence, interview witnesses, review reports and prepare pleadings.
