Homestead Serious Injuries
Unfortunately, accidents are not predictable, and some can lead to serious injuries. While any serious or catastrophic injury can be life-changing, these situations are made worse when they are the result of an accident caused by another’s negligence, which, in our experience as Homestead serious injury lawyers, is the majority.
Serious injuries run the gamut – from loss of limb, head trauma, and severe neck and back injuries to broken bones and disfigurement – but all can be devastating to the victim and their loved ones. Sustaining a serious injury can change almost every aspect of your life. Aside from pain and suffering, serious injuries can cause hardships and financial loss for the whole family.
If you’ve suffered from a serious injury, it’s important to know that you have rights. A Homestead serious injury attorney at Friedman Rodman Frank & Estrada can help you obtain the compensation that you deserve. We believe that the party who caused your injuries should be held responsible for their reckless or negligent behavior and that you should be compensated to the fullest extent.
What Should Accident Victims Do After Suffering Serious Injuries?First and foremost, if you’ve suffered serious injuries, you should seek medical attention. Before filing claims or taking any sort of legal action, it’s essential that you take care of yourself. Make sure your injuries are being properly tended to in a timely manner.
Next, you should know that the state of Florida has a “statute of limitations,” which means that there’s a set deadline for the amount of time you have to file a lawsuit in civil court against the person or company that might be legally at fault for your serious injuries. Under Florida's statute of limitations, depending on the date of accident, you generally have two and/or four years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit for negligence. If you don't file within the appropriate timeframe, the court will likely refuse to hear your case. For injury claims against a city, county or state government, the time limit is usually even less than four years.
