Orlando Personal Injury Case Recovery

If you have a personal injury accident case in Florida, there are different types of damages that you’re entitled to, but generally speaking, you’re entitled to past damages and future damages. The past damages would include things like medical bills, and economic losses, lost earning capacity, missing time from work – things like that. You’re also entitled to future damages. If you have a permanent injury or a bad injury, you’re entitled to recovery medical bills that you may need in the future. You’re also entitled to recover what’s called lost earning capacity, or the ability to earn money in the future. You’re also entitled to recover future pain and suffering.

Insurance Claims

Typically, you want an attorney to help protect your rights and help walk you through the handling of your claim. A lot of times, at the beginning, insurance companies, insurance adjusters, will act as if they’re trying to be friendly and trying to be helpful. But, we all know that insurance companies, in certain situations, have a tendency to try and take advantage of victims in the claims handling process. It’s important to have an attorney that knows how to deal with insurance adjusters, that knows how to deal with insurance companies in the claims process and have an attorney that can adequately and properly protect your rights.

Has My Child Sustained a Brain Injury?

If you have questions about whether your child has a brain injury, here’s some things to look for. There are certain milestones that children go through: babies, toddlers, and if they’re not reaching the milestones at the right time frame, that should raise a question in your mind whether or not there’s something going on that’s not exactly right in their brain. Look for things like are they crawling, are they handling their toys with their fingers, grasping appropriately, is there good strength in their hands, are they lifting their hands over their head, are they able to feed themselves, hold their bottle, walking and cruising along the sofa at the right age? Those are things that you need to look for, the milestones to determine whether or not there might be a brain injury. If you have more questions about how your child is doing, give me a call. I’d be glad to discuss the details with you. My name’s Ron Gilbert with Calling Gilbert Right and Carter, 1800-49 legal.

Collecting Damages For Injuries

Collecting damages for injuries in an accident case requires quite an impressive effort. It means getting an attorney who can go after those damages for you. It means pursing a defendant or the person legally responsible for causing those damages. In most accident cases, it is the insurance company of the other party which will be paying for the damages or paying an amount of money for the assessment of damages. In some instances, you may be going after a corporation, and it is the corporation itself paying those damages.

Insurance Company Recorded Statement

You are not required to give a recorded statement to the insurance company for the other driver or the other car involved in your car accident case. However, you typically will be required to give a recorded statement to your own insurance company if they ask for one. Due to the Cooperation Clause, it is typically included within every auto insurance policy. If you decide not to cooperate with your insurance company by giving the recorded statement, they can deny coverage. So, it’s important that you give a recorded statement if they requested. However, before giving any recorded statements, it’s important to make sure you talk to your attorney about it first.
