Personal injury is a general term which refers to accidents in which people are injured through the careless actions individuals or businesses. Such accidents occur through negligence, which is the failure to use reasonable care, or by intent. These accidents and the damages they cause are referred to as “torts,” or civil wrongs.

Florida Law provides that if you are injured due to the negligence of another, then you may be entitled to economic and non-economic damages, in the form of financial compensation. The goal of the legal system is to reasonably compensate someone for those damages, which may include:

  • past unpaid and future anticipated medical bills
  • lost wages
  • pain and suffering
  • mental anguish
  • scarring and disfigurement
  • aggravation of a pre-existing condition
  • loss of enjoyment of life
  • back injury

If the actions of the wrongdoer rise to a higher level of carelessness, from wanton or willful conduct, such as an accident caused by a drunk driver, that wrongdoer may also be responsible for punitive damages, which are meant to punish them for their reckless conduct.

Personal injury victims must remember that Florida has a specific statute of limitations, which is the period of time from the date of an accident in which to file a lawsuit against the person or business who caused the accident. This is why, personal injury accident victims should contact our office as soon as practicable to ensure that their rights are protected.
