When to Hire Tampa Personal Injury Lawyer If you’re new to an attorney-client relationship, you may wonder about the advantages of hiring a personal injury law firm. One reason is that your legal team can better help you recover compensation. Research from one insurance company shows that a claim handled by an experienced Tampa personal injury attorney settles for 400% more than a claim that an individual handles without an accident lawyer (on average). This fact is the major reason insurance claims adjusters are so aggressive in getting individuals to resolve their claims before personal injury lawyers get involved. Remember the basic rule of insurance companies Insurance companies sell insurance products and are in the business of making money. They generate revenue from consumers paying them for the insurance. Their costs occur when they have to pay claims. Insurance companies want to sell more policies and pay fewer claims to be profitable. These are billion-dollar companies that have been making record profits year after year. To put it in perspective, State Farm once saw a $3.2 billion increase in net income from one year to the next. Insurance companies are very good at denying or settling claims for pennies on the dollar. Personal injury lawyers don’t cost you money upfront so that they can fight for you against these large insurance companies. Lawyers for personal injury victims are most often paid at the backend of your case, about 33% of the recovery on average. Read section 627.736 for more information on the personal injury protection benefits you’re entitled to. The success of any legal matter depends on the unique circumstances of each case, therefore, we cannot guarantee particular results for future clients. Types of Personal Injury Cases We Handle If you’re looking for a law office or team of trial attorneys, Denmon Pearlman may be the right fit for you. Below is a list of the cases we handle for our clients. Tampa Car Accidents Our team handles accidents in and around Tampa, FL. According to the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV), over 250,000 people died from traffic accidents in 2021. If you’ve been involved in an auto accident and suffered catastrophic injuries due to a negligent driver, our law firm can help you. Truck Accidents Truck accidents can be devastating, especially when semi-trucks are involved. You need an experienced PI attorney to go up against insurance and trucking companies on your behalf, and that is exactly what we do for our clients. Slip and Fall Accidents Property owners are responsible for providing a safe environment and making repairs when unsafe conditions exist. We help slip and fall accident victims recover compensation to cover medical expenses, lost wages, physical pain and suffering, and more. Bicycle Accidents Bicycle accidents frequently occur in Tampa, FL, which is a case we handle for our clients. Always be careful when riding a bike in Florida and if the worst happens, talk with a personal injury attorney who can help you recover from an accident. Motorcycle Accidents Like bicycles on the road, motorcycles are common in Tampa, FL, and unfortunately, many motorcycle drivers will be involved in an accident. Careless drivers are often to blame for catastrophic injury to motorcyclists. In this type of auto accident, we help injury victims with a strong injury claim get maximum compensation. Uber and Lyft Accidents Ridesharing accidents may result in the same injured victims as traditional ones, but these cases have unique factors. One difference is that the driver will have their insurance policy, as will Uber or Lyft. Navigating the different insurance firms is just one way we help injured clients get the most from their cases. Neck and Back Injury We can help our clients with any significant neck or back injury resulting from a negligent party, whether due to a workplace accident, drunk driving accident, or other situations. Regardless of how it happened, we can help hold the liable party responsible so you can recover compensation for injuries. Pedestrian Accidents Pedestrians can be injured by truck drivers, in car accident cases, and even by a property owner that has failed to repair an unsafe environment. Regardless of how a pedestrian is injured, our experienced personal injury team and injury attorneys help defend pedestrians when an accident occurs. Medical Malpractice Our Tampa, FL team has years of experience getting settlements from local hospitals. Medical malpractice can lead to birth injuries, traumatic brain injury victims, and more. We use all legal resources to defend our clients when medical malpractice occurs. Product Liability When you buy a product, you are not expecting it to be defective. A defective product might have a flaw in the design, fail to work correctly, or simply malfunction and cause you harm. When that happens, our law firm is there for clients. Dog Bite Accidents Dog bites can occur at a friend’s house while you’re eating dinner or in your neighborhood when someone’s dog runs up to you and attacks. Regardless of how it happens, a dog attack can cause significant injuries to victims, resulting in medical bills, lost wages, and more. And just like a car accident, where the driver of a car is liable, in the case of dog bites, the responsible party is the dog’s owner. Read section 767.04 for more about dog bites and damages. Nursing Home Abuse No one wants to think about abuse happening to loved ones, but it can occur. We represent clients who have a loved one in a nursing home who are victims of abuse or negligence.
