Who Do I Hire Following an Auto Accident

Hi, I’m Julia McGrath, an attorney here at the Dolman Law Group.  Oftentimes, people ask me, “What kind of attorney do I need after I’ve suffered an injury?” What I tell them is that you need a personal injury attorney. Now there are a lot of attorneys out there that handle criminal law, family law, bankruptcy, but only a personal injury attorney knows how to deal with an insurance company and knows how to maximize the value of your claim.  For more information, call me – Julia McGrath – here at the Dolman Law Group.

Personal Injury Litigation Process

I’m Alexander Knapp from the Dolman Law Group, Clearwater, auto accident attorney. Oftentimes when new clients come through our doors they’re confused. They’ve never been through a personal injury case before and they want to know what the process entails. Very simple, there are five basic steps to a personal injury case.

Step One

Step one is the accident and the ensuing medical care that the client has to undergo to make himself feel better.

Step Two

Step two, your attorney will collect all of your medical records and submit a demand on your behalf to the insurance company in an attempt to resolve your case.

Step Three

The third step, we enter into a negotiation with the insurance company in an attempt to amicably resolve your case for both sides.

Step Four and Five

Step four, should we fail to amicably resolve the case with the insurance company, we’re forced to file a lawsuit with the court and enter into the litigation process, and step five, should the case not resolve during litigation, a trial. Thanks for listening. If you have any questions about your personal injury claim, feel free to contact me, Alexander Knapp, at the Dolman Law Group. Visit our YouTube channel.

Rental Car Coverage in Orlando Auto Accident

I’m Ron Gilbert with Colling, Gilbert, Wright & Carter. Many times insurance coverage will have rental car coverage included. If that’s included in your policy, your own insurance company will cover the rental car cost if you’re in an accident and your car is damaged. If you don’t have rental car coverage then you’re going to have to pay for the rental car up front and will be seeking damages in the claim against the person that is at fault. Again, I’m Ron Gilbert with Colling, Gilbert, Wright & Carter, 1-800-49-LEGAL.

Motorcycle Accident Litigation in Orlando

In Florida, a lot of people like to get outside and ride motorcycles especially in the Summer or in the Spring. When the weather’s nice, we also have a lot of tourists who drive in Florida so that’s a bad combination. Over the years, we’ve handled a lot of cases involving motorcycles or hit by cars and vehicles and tourists. Usually the motorcyclist is hurt the worst in those cases, and a lot of times the motorcyclists and their families ask us if the person can still bring the case even if they weren’t wearing a helmet, and the answer is yes you can. You do not, by law, have to wear a helmet in Florida. The way they use it against you is by arguing that comparative fault is some of the fault is yours for not wearing a helmet, but you’re still allowed to bring the case, and you’re still allowed to recover if you were not at fault. If you have a question about a motorcycle accident case, call me, Nathan Carter at Colling Gilbert Wright & Carter 1-800-49-LEGAL.

Most Difficult Personal Injury Case in Orlando

One of the most difficult cases that I’ve ever handled as a trial lawyer was for a family member. My nephew was unfortunately killed in a car accident. He was a deputy sheriff and was t-boned in an intersection by an 18 wheeler. It was a very difficult case to handle. I had to deal with my brother-in-law, and my sister-in-law throughout that entire case, and the grieving process. So, I’ve been involved in cases that are very personal to me. I understand where you are with your case, and with the grieving process that you’re going through. If you’d like to discuss that with me, I’m Ron Gilbert with Colling, Gilbert, Wright & Carter; 1800-49-LEGAL.
