One of the most common questions we get from car accident victims is: If I get cited for the accident, can I still sue?

Of course you can. The police officer wasn’t a witness to the accident in most cases, as a result, it doesn’t matter who gets the ticket. The jury decides who should’ve gotten the ticket. Call us with any questions about your car accident claim. I’m Mel Wright, I’m a partner at Colling Gilbert Wright and Carter. Call us at 1-800-49-LEGAL.

Car Accident Injury Compensation

Hi. I’m Julia McGrath, an attorney here at the Dolman Law Group. Often times clients ask me can I be compensated or can I get money from my pain and suffering that I’ve sustained as a result of my motor vehicle collision? In order to get money for pain and suffering damages, the law actually tells us in Florida what we need to prove. And what we need to prove is that you’ve suffered a permanent injury.

What is Considered a Permanent Injury?

The law also spells out for us what can be considered a permanent injury. So that’s loss of use of an important bodily function, loss of a limb, disfigurement other than scarring, or any other permanent injury within a degree of medical certainty. For more information, contact me, Julia McGrath here at the Dolman Law Group. Thanks again for visiting 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.

If you’re not wearing your seat belt and you’re injured in an accident in Florida can you still recover money damages?

Of course you can. The seat belt didn’t cause the accident. It may have contributed to some of your injuries, but you’re still entitled to recover from the person who caused the accident. Call us at Colin Gilbert Wright & Carter at 1800-49 LEGAL with any questions about your car accident claim.

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.
