What Is a Florida Personal Injury Case?

Car accidents, construction site accidents, truck accidents and other types of accidents can have devastating effects on your quality of life. Recognizing these numerous challenges and losses, Florida law allows you to take legal action against those who caused your injury and recover damages for mental anguish, diminished capacity to enjoy life, pain and suffering, disability, disfigurement, past and future medical expenses, lost wages and decreased earning capacity in the future, among other types of losses.

If you have suffered an injury because of the careless, irresponsible or wrongful actions of a person, business or other entity, then you may have a personal injury case that can and should be pursued. Personal injuries can occur in many different contexts, but to constitute a viable personal injury case in Florida, you and your attorney must be able to prove the four elements of a negligence cause of action:

• Duty of care: You must demonstrate that the defendant(s) had a legal duty to act with reasonable care, so as not to cause injury to another person. For example, all motor vehicle operators must operate their vehicles with reasonable care in order to avoid causing injury to other motorists and pedestrians.
• Breach of duty: You need to show that the defendant(s) breached this duty of care. For example, a driver who speeds, goes through a red light or drives while intoxicated breaches the duty of care all motor vehicle operators have while driving.
• Cause: You must have evidence to demonstrate that the defendant’s breach of his duty of care and the resulting accident caused your injuries.
• Damages: You must prove that you sustained losses, such as medical expenses, pain, suffering, and other damages, because of your injuries. Examples of the types of injuries for which Boyers Law Group has successfully represented clients include fractures or broken bones requiring surgery, spinal cord injuries, paralysis, brain injuries, nerve damage, severe burns, amputations, and many other serious injuries, including wrongful death.

Defendants can argue against any part of your claim by misrepresenting facts, in an attempt to invalidate your entire claim and prevent you from obtaining justice. Furthermore, insurance company representatives will often seek to contact you and distort the facts and the extent of your injuries in an attempt to undermine your claim and deny you fair compensation.  Therefore, if you have been injured due to someone else’s negligence, it is important to consult with a Florida personal injury trial lawyer experienced in successfully handling claims involving severe personal injury as soon as possible.  It is also essential that you do not speak to anyone, especially a representative of an insurance company, including your own insurance carrier, before contacting a lawyer who can guide you through the entire process.

The Boyers Law Group legal team works to build the strongest possible case from the very beginning of our representation for the firm’s clients.  Gathering the evidence, without delay, is often a critical component in achieving success in a personal injury case.

If you have been injured because of negligence at a resort or hotel in Florida, the experienced personal injury accident and resort tort lawyers of Boyers Law Group can help you obtain the fair and full compensation you deserve for your injuries.
• Pool and Drowning Accidents – Unfortunately, drowning and other accidents in and around pools and spas are far too common in Florida. Children suffer suction entrapment drownings at pools or drownings because pools do not have required fencing around them.  Diving accidents occur around pools and some pools or spas are improperly wired leading to electrocution injuries or fatalities.  When these accidents occur because a property owner and/or manager has been negligent, injured victims (or their families, in the case of drowning deaths) have the right to sue for damages.

• Negligent Security – Negligent or insufficient security at a hotel, motel, store, shopping center, mall, bank/ATM, parking lot, bar, nightclub, other commercial premises or in a residential development can enable criminal activity and resulting injury. If negligent or insufficient security, such as a lack of security cameras or locks, poor lighting, the absence of security guards or inadequately unprotected property in an area known to be a high crime area played a part in your being attacked and injured, the Boyers Law Group personal injury attorneys can help you bring a strong premises liability claim to hold the property owner liable and recover full compensation for your injuries.
• Construction Site Accidents – Accidents can occur in many ways at construction sites, including falls from scaffolding and other elevated platforms, defective or improperly operated machinery or equipment, electrocution, burns and falling debris, among many sources of serious or even fatal construction site injuries. When negligent operation or maintenance of premises or equipment or the use of defective equipment caused these accident injuries, you have the right to take legal action and recover damages from the responsible parties.
• Daycare Center Accidents – Daycare centers have a legal duty to provide a reasonably safe environment for children in their care. When they breach their duty and children are injured, the injured child and their parents can hold the careless caretakers accountable and obtain the substantial compensation to which they are entitled under the law. The Boyers Law Group attorneys will fight tirelessly for the full compensation your family deserves for your child’s injuries, pain and suffering.
