What is a Personal Injury Lawsuit?

A personal injury lawsuit is a legal claim filed by someone who has been injured due to another person’s or entity’s negligence. In Florida, these cases are governed by laws that allow injured individuals to recover compensation for their losses.

The core elements of a personal injury case include:

Duty of Care: The responsible party owed a duty to act reasonably and avoid causing harm.

Breach of Duty: The duty was violated through negligence, recklessness, or intentional misconduct.

Causation: The breach directly caused your injuries.

Damages: You suffered measurable losses, such as medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

Florida operates under a comparative negligence rule, meaning your compensation could be reduced if you are partially at fault. For instance, if you’re 20% at fault, your recovery will be reduced by that percentage.

Understanding these laws is vital, and a skilled personal injury lawyer can help you navigate the process effectively.

Types of Personal Injury Cases We Handle

As skilled personal injury lawyers in Miami, Florida, we handle a wide range of personal injury claims, including but not limited to:

Car Accidents

Car accidents are one of the most common causes of personal injuries. It could be a rear-end collision, a T-bone crash, a head-on accident, or something else. Whichever it is, we help victims recover compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

Slip and Fall Accidents

Slip and fall injuries often occur due to hazardous conditions like wet floors, uneven surfaces, or poor lighting. Property owners have a responsibility to maintain safe premises, and when they fail, they can be held accountable.

Truck Accidents

Collisions with large trucks can lead to catastrophic injuries. Truck accident cases usually involve multiple parties, including drivers, trucking companies, and manufacturers. We have the expertise to untangle these complexities and build a strong case for you.

Bicycle Accidents

Bicycle crashes can result in severe injuries due to limited rider protection. We advocate for cyclists injured by negligent drivers or unsafe road conditions.

Boat Accidents

From collisions to operator negligence, boating accidents can lead to devastating consequences. We help victims navigate complex maritime laws to seek fair compensation.

Bus Accidents

Whether it’s a public transit bus or a private charter, bus accidents can leave multiple victims injured. We handle claims involving bus companies and government entities.

Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcyclists are especially vulnerable on the road. We represent riders injured by distracted or reckless drivers, so that their rights are protected.

Pedestrian Accidents

Pedestrians struck by vehicles often suffer life-altering injuries. We hold negligent drivers accountable for failing to prioritize pedestrian safety.

Premises Liability

Property owners must maintain safe conditions. We represent victims of slip and falls, inadequate security, or hazardous premises.

Product Liability

Faulty or dangerous products can cause serious harm. We take on manufacturers and corporations to secure justice for defective product injuries.

Rideshare Accidents

Accidents involving Uber or Lyft vehicles require understanding complex insurance policies. We make sure that rideshare passengers and other victims receive the compensation they deserve.

Short-Term Rental Accidents

Injuries at vacation rentals, like Airbnb properties, typically involve complex liability issues. We help victims recover damages from property owners or rental platforms.

Wrongful Death

Losing a loved one due to someone else’s negligence is devastating. We represent families in wrongful death claims, seeking justice and financial support for funeral costs, lost income, and emotional pain.

No Win, No Fee: Our Contingent Fee Promise

At Galimidi Law, we operate on a contingency fee basis, which means you don’t pay us unless we win your case. This arrangement ensures that everyone, regardless of financial situation, has access to quality legal representation.

You won’t pay any upfront costs—our fee is a percentage of the settlement or award you receive. This motivates us to fight tirelessly for the best possible outcome in your case.

Beware of Early Settlement Offers

Insurance companies may approach victims with early settlement offers. While these might seem like a quick way to resolve your case, they are rarely in your best interest. Such offers typically undervalue your claim, failing to account for long-term medical expenses, lost earning capacity, and pain and suffering.

A fair settlement reflects the full extent of your losses—both current and future. Florida law allows victims to pursue compensation for a wide range of damages, and our experienced attorneys work hard to make sure that no aspect of your claim is overlooked.

What Damages Can You Recover?

If you’ve been injured, you may be eligible for compensation for:

Medical Expenses

Covers hospital stays, surgeries, physical therapy, and future medical care.

Lost Wages

Compensation for income lost due to time off work or reduced earning capacity.

Pain and Suffering

Addresses physical pain and emotional distress caused by the accident.

Property Damage

Reimbursement for damage to personal property, such as your vehicle.

Loss of Consortium

Compensation for the impact on relationships, especially in wrongful death cases.
