How much compensation can I get for my car accident?

One of the first questions crash victims ask when they meet with us is how much their car accident is worth. It’s an important question. That’s because the financial impact of a serious car accident can quickly add up to thousands of dollars or significantly more. Such expenses can cover a wide range, including:

• Medical bills, including surgery and long-term medical care
• Vehicle repairs or the cost of buying a new car if your vehicle is a total loss.
• Replacement income if you cannot work while recovering from a car accident injury.
• Lost future income if you cannot return to work due to a permanent disability.
• Money for pain and suffering, especially if you have long-term chronic neck pain, back pain, or shoulder pain due to your accident.

Other accident-related expenses might be possible. And in every case, you should be financially compensated for each expense if the other driver caused your accident. That’s why it’s critical that you have a Florida car accident compensation lawyer aggressively fighting for the money you rightfully deserve. Because if you don’t get the maximum financial compensation you’re entitled to, you could have to pay for your accident out of pocket.

What you should do

After an accident, these are some of the most critical steps you need to take to obtain the money you deserve for your crash:

• Make sure your official police accident report is accurate - Any mistake made by the investigating police officer could affect how much money you receive for your crash.
• Have a doctor examine you - Insurance companies will likely refuse to compensate you without proof that you were hurt in your accident.
• Contact our law firm - The sooner you have our experienced attorneys on your side, the sooner we can help you with the details of your case. We can help you with the following:
  • File an accident claim with your insurance company - This might sound simple. But we strongly encourage you to consult with us first. Any mistake could jeopardize your case.
  • Investigate your accident - Evidence builds strong cases. And we know where to look to find the facts you need to build a rock-solid case.
  • Consult with experts - Experienced accident investigators know how to analyze an accident and find important details many people overlook.
  • Negotiate with insurance companies - Often, the insurance company for the driver who caused your crash will do everything they can to reduce or deny your claim. However, we know how to effectively negotiate with them for maximum compensation and can demand a fair settlement offer for your injury claim.
  • File a lawsuit - If negotiating for a fair settlement fails, we're prepared to go to court for you to file a car accident lawsuit on your behalf.
  • File an appeal - If your lawsuit is not initially successful, we can file an appeal on your behalf and continue fighting for the compensation you deserve.

Getting the money you deserve for your crash can be complicated. That's why it's critical that you have our legal team on your side as soon as possible. Schedule your free consultation today with a Florida car accident compensation attorney you can trust.
