Questions & Answers
The questions we hear most
Straight answers about how injury claims work in Florida — and what hiring us actually costs you.
What types of personal injury cases do you handle?
The Fort Lauderdale personal injury attorneys at The Bald Injury Lawyers have experience handling Fort Lauderdale car crash claims, trucking accidents, bicycle accidents, dog bites, slip & fall, Lyft and Uber car accidents, and more. Contact us if you have questions about your case.
Do I pay anything up front?
At The Bald Injury Lawyers, we handle personal injury cases on a contingency fee basis. That means you don’t pay us an attorney’s fee up front. If we don’t recover money for you, you don’t owe us an attorney’s fee for our work. If we do recover money for you, our fee is a percentage of the recovery, as explained in your contingency fee agreement. Our attorney’s fee is paid from the recovery rather than requiring you to pay us out of your pocket. Your agreement will also explain how case expenses and other amounts owed from the recovery are handled. No recovery. No attorney’s fee.
What are your thoughts on my case?
That’s one of the first questions we hear during a free consultation, and it’s an important one. The truth is, we can’t always know the full value or strength of a personal injury claim during the first conversation. There may be important facts, medical records, insurance coverage issues, witnesses, or other evidence that need to be investigated before we can give you a meaningful assessment. That’s one of the advantages of a contingency fee arrangement. You don’t have to pay us by the hour while we investigate your claim. We can investigate the facts, evaluate the evidence, determine who may be responsible, and assess the available insurance coverage without you worrying about receiving a large legal bill simply because we determined that your claim wasn’t one we could pursue. If, after investigating your case, we determine that there isn’t a viable claim, we will tell you. And because we work on a contingency fee basis, if we don’t recover money for you, you don’t owe us an attorney’s fee for our work. Our free consultation is the first step. We’ll listen to what happened, answer your questions, explain what we see based on the information available, and discuss whether we believe we can help.
How do Fort Lauderdale car accident attorneys negotiate with insurers?
After a car accident, you will likely deal with an insurance adjuster who will try to settle your claim quickly and for as little money as possible. Our experienced lawyers can help you negotiate with the insurance company to get the compensation you deserve. This may include reimbursement for your medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
What if the other driver was speeding or driving recklessly?
According to Florida’s no-fault laws, if you are involved in a car accident, your own PIP coverage pays part of your medical bills and lost income, regardless of fault, up to $10,000. You may also have a claim against the other driver. Florida’s no-fault law limits lawsuits for pain and suffering after car crashes. You can pursue those damages against the at-fault driver if the crash caused (1) significant and permanent loss of an important bodily function, (2) a permanent injury within a reasonable degree of medical probability, (3) significant and permanent scarring or disfigurement, or (4) death (Fla. Stat. § 627.737(2)). To recover from a driver who was speeding or driving recklessly, you will need to prove that their actions caused the accident. This can be hard to prove, but it may be possible with witnesses or video evidence. If you are successful in court, you may be awarded damages for your medical expenses, property damage, and pain and suffering. Suing the other driver does not guarantee a recovery, especially if the evidence is thin or the driver has little insurance. We can gather the evidence, look for every insurance policy that may apply, including your own uninsured motorist coverage, and tell you honestly whether a claim makes sense before you decide.
What are the grounds for a slip and fall lawsuit?
A Fort Lauderdale slip and fall lawsuit can be based on the legal theory of premises liability. To have grounds for a slip and fall lawsuit, a plaintiff must prove that the property owner or occupier had a duty to maintain safe premises, that the defendant breached this duty, and that this breach caused the plaintiff’s injury. Additionally, the plaintiff must also show that the defendant knew or should have known of the dangerous condition and failed to remedy it or adequately warn of it. In a business slip and fall on a foreign substance, you must also show the business knew or should have known of the condition (Fla. Stat. § 768.0755).
