When can you sue when you slip and fall in a store or business?

Driver Without Insurance Injures Biker

If you were riding your bike in Florida, and were injured by another car that did not have insurance, can you still recover for your injuries? The answer to that depends on a number of factors, the most important of which is whether or not you have UM, which is uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage. It’s important to have UM coverage because it protects you in this exact type of situation, if you are injured as a result of the carelessness of someone else who is uninsured or has insufficient insurance to cover your injuries.

How does the lawyer get paid?

If you have a medical malpractice case, we handle those cases on a contingency fee bases. So if you give me a call, I will be glad to discuss the contingency fee with you and basically if there’s no recovery, there is no fee. If we get a recovery for you, our fee is a percentage of that. My name is Ron Gilbert with Colling Gilbert Wright and Carter, 1800-49 LEGAL.

Swimming Pool Owner Liability

The owner of a swimming pool can sometimes be held legally liable for any accidents, injuries, or drownings that happen in the pool. But that depends on whether or not the owner took reasonable steps to prevent the accident from happening.

Common examples of reasonable steps that a swimming pool owner can take, is making sure that there is the appropriate fence or enclosure around the pool to prevent children from wondering into it, to make sure that it is adequately lit.

In certain circumstances making sure that there is a lifeguard, or making sure that other people are around to prevent accidents from happening. Another important thing is to pay close attention to the surface surrounding the pool, make sure that it is a non-slip or slip-resistant surface to prevent slip and fall type accidents in the pools area.

How To Successfully Litigate Personal Injury Claim

Hi. I’m Julia McGrath an attorney here at the Dolman Law Group. Often times clients ask me, what do I need to be doing as a client, in order to succeed on my personal injury claim? While we, as the attorney, are investigating the claim and doing the legal research, it’s important that you as a client to fill some of your obligations as well.

Keeping Medical Records

One of those things is keeping fresh with your medical records, and what I mean by that is seeking medical treatment and going to your doctor’s appointment. These appointments and medical records become imperative, in order for us to demonstrate to the insurance company the extent of your injuries and what you should be compensated for. It’s important when you’re meeting with your treating physician to document the extent of your injuries by listing everything that hurts and everything that’s wrong with you. Be thorough in your complaints, so that your doctor can take down all this information and embody it into your medical record for us to use later down the road.

Cruise Line Injury Claim

Cruise line claims are different than most negligence claims. In Florida we have a four-year statute of limitations on negligence claims. However, it’s very different when you’ve been injured while on a cruise. The ticket or your cruise contract– it actually is that. It is a contract and there is usually small print language on the back of your contract that requires you to bring your claim or file written notice of your claim with the cruise line, typically within six months of there being an accident. And then to file a lawsuit within one year of the accident which is obviously much different than having a four-year statute of limitations.

All too often in Florida people that have been injured on a cruise line will wait too long because they think they have four years to bring a claim when it’s just not the case. The cruise line ticket or contract applies and you must read that language. You must have family members look at the contract if you’ve been injured while on a cruise line because often times you will no longer have rights to bring a claim if you wait too long and that’s typically more than six months from the date the incident occurred.
