In Florida, attorneys are permitted to represent you as consumers on a contingent fee basis. Oftentimes, when you’ve been involved in a catastrophic injury case or accident or situation, those cases will take years sometimes to travel through the litigation process. If you’ve suffered a catastrophic injury and you have mounting medical bills and are unable to work, a contingent fee representation system such as the one we have in Florida permits you and your attorneys to match the resources of the insurance industry or the trucking industry to help you along in your catastrophic injury case. All that means is you don’t pay your attorney fees until the end of the case, and only pay them if there’s been a recovery in the case. The attorneys get a percentage of that recovery for attorney fees. It also allows your attorneys to advance the costs of your case, and then only recoup those costs at the end of the case if there’s been a successful recovery on your behalf.

The investigation of a motorcycle accident is critical. Oftentimes you will have many witnesses, for example in an intersection collision case, and several years later when you take the depositions or sworn statements of those witness who have all observed the same exact crash, they will have greatly varying versions of what actually happened. So the investigation of a motorcycle accident is critical; you have to preserve evidence at the scene. Where did the motorcycle come to rest? Where did the other vehicles come to rest? Where were witnesses when they observed what happened? Were there skid marks or gouge marks in the roadway?
It’s crucial that you investigate very soon after a motorcycle accident to preserve that evidence that will become critical in later reconstructing the accident to determine who was at fault for the crash.

It is critical to have qualified experts to establish both liability and damages in a motorcycle accident case. We’ve had cases where there have been four or five witnesses that have observed a motorcycle accident, and invariably two years, three years later when you’re taking their depositions, they have completely inconsistent versions of what happened even though they all witnessed the same exact crash. So it’s important to have qualified, reputable experts that can talk to a jury about liability issues and can reconstruct the accident. Also, in motorcycle accident cases, you’re typically dealing with death or at least with catastrophic injuries. When you represent a motorcycle accident victim who has had catastrophic injuries, it’s important to have qualified medical experts that cannot only talk about current injuries but also assess future needs and future medical care required to treat what are oftentimes catastrophic injuries.

Medical Bill Expenses
If you’ve been injured in an accident, there are a number of ways your medical bills will get paid. One is, of course, through your own insurance company. Another might be through some governmental agency or governmental aid program. Another might well be through what is commonly referred to as an LOP or letter of protection. The most important thing regarding the payment of these medical bills, is get an attorney and have that attorney assist you in navigating your way through making sure these bills get paid, or that you at least have an agreement with the medical provider.

Insurance companies will evaluate your losses based on your economic and what we call your noneconomic damages. Your economic damages; what are your medical bills from the date of the crash up until the time of the trial or until the time of the settlement conference and what are your medical bills in the future that a doctor can determine are reasonably related to the crash itself. Also, what are your economic losses for missing work or your wage loss. Have you lost work as a result of this crash in the past, will you lose work in the future? So that’s the economic component that the insurance company will assess.
Aside from that is the noneconomic or the human damages element; what is the pain and suffering that you have experienced in the past and into the future related to a crash. What is your mental anguish, your loss of enjoyment of life? And while those damages are not as easily quantifiable as your economic damages, the insurance company will try to place a value on all of those damages together and that will determine what kind of money they may be willing to offer you to settle a case.
