Their playbook
Three moves they make on almost every claim.
Delay
Slow the claim down until the evidence fades and you'll take less. They know Florida's deadlines. They're counting on you not knowing them.
Deny
Point to a gap in your treatment, or an old injury, and say you weren't really hurt.
Lowball
Send a quick, small check before your doctors know the full picture. Once you cash it, the file is closed.
“When the insurance company's adjuster tries to make your injury sound small, I've seen that move. When their lawyer points to fine print in the policy, I've probably argued that same point myself.”
However you were hurt
Don’t face the insurance company alone.
A crash, a fall, a faulty product, or the death of someone you love. Whatever happened, the insurance company is already working to pay you less. For most of my career, I was that company's lawyer. Now I'm yours, anywhere in Florida.
Offer vs. recovery
I don’t take their first offer.
Actual results from cases handled by the firm; the amount in the bicycle case is confidential. Each case is different and past results do not guarantee a similar outcome.

Four steps that protect your claim.
Get medical care right away
Seeing a doctor right away creates a record of your injury. After a crash, Florida’s no-fault (PIP) rule can deny your bills if you wait past 14 days.
Save the evidence
Photograph the scene and your injuries. In a product case, store the product itself somewhere safe and dry as fast as possible.
Don’t give a statement or sign anything
A recorded statement is evidence, and a fast offer closes your case before you know its real value. Talk to me first.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to hire Galimidi Law?
The case review is free. You pay nothing up front. My fee comes out of the money I get for you (this is called a contingency fee). You pay no attorney fees or costs unless the firm wins money for you.
Do you speak Spanish?
Yes. The firm handles cases in English and Spanish and represents injured clients throughout Florida.
What makes Galimidi Law different from other injury firms?
For nearly two decades I was an insurance defense attorney. I represented the insurance companies and large corporations. Now I use that inside knowledge for injured people. You work directly with me, a senior trial attorney, not a case manager.
What areas of Florida do you serve?
Galimidi Law is based in downtown Miami and represents injured people throughout Florida, including visitors from out of state who were injured here.
How do I know if I have a personal injury case?
If someone else's carelessness caused your injury, you may have a claim. The best way to find out is a free case review. I will look at what happened and tell you honestly whether you have a case.
How long do I have to file an injury claim in Florida?
For most injury claims, you have two years from the day you were hurt. If a city, county, or state agency is involved, it can be shorter. If you miss the deadline, the case is usually over, no matter who was at fault. So talk to a lawyer early.
Should I give the insurance adjuster a recorded statement?
Not until you've talked to your own lawyer. Anything you say on a recorded call can be used against you. Questions that sound routine are often used later to make your injury look smaller. I spent nearly two decades on the insurance side. I know how those calls are used.
Will my case have to go to court?
Many cases settle. But insurance companies tend to pay fairly only when they know you are ready to go to trial. As a former defense attorney and trial lawyer, I prepare every case as if a jury will decide it.
What types of cases does Galimidi Law handle?
Car, truck, motorcycle, bicycle, pedestrian, rideshare (Uber/Lyft), bus, boat, and aviation accidents; slip and fall; injuries at short-term rentals; defective products (product liability); insurance bad faith; and wrongful death, across Florida.
Does it matter if my lawyer actually goes to trial?
Yes. Insurance companies keep track of which lawyers go to trial and which ones take whatever is offered. They offer less to lawyers who never go to court. I watched that happen for nearly two decades on their side. So I prepare every case as if a jury will see it. Most cases still settle, but they settle for full value only when the insurance company believes you'll go to court.
