Unfortunately, nothing is perfect, and people in Lauderhill are just as prone to suffer accidents and injuries as in other parts of Florida. Cars get into crashes. Slippery floors lead to falls.
Most of the time when these things happen, we tend to blame ourselves – or the universe. “What a freak accident,” we say. Or, “Clumsy me.” Or even, “Oh well, it couldn’t have been helped.”
What if it could have been helped though? What if it was not something uncontrollable that led to your injury, but the negligent actions of another? Should you have to pay for their mistake? Do they not bear some of the responsibility?
At The Injury Law Firm of South Florida, these are the kinds of questions that our experienced lawyers have been encouraging our clients to ask for decades. We understand the deep personal turmoil that a serious injury can cause. The pain and suffering that you must endure. The lost work time. The many trips to doctors and physical therapy appointments. The increasingly huge pile of bills.
Our attorneys firmly believe that you should never have to pay for someone else’s negligence. If they had behaved appropriately, you would not be in this situation in the first place, so it should be their responsibility to compensate you for what they did.
Thankfully, the State of Florida believes this as well and has set down clear laws covering how personal injury liability works in a variety of situations. As a firm that has handled countless of personal injury cases over the years, we have the knowledge and skill you need to get the compensation you deserve.
Malpractice claims, for example, typically require the use of expert witnesses who can explain why what the defendant did was not acceptable practice. Different types of cases may have different statutes of limitations. Claims against government entities work differently than those against private citizens or businesses.
Because of this, it is important that you work with lawyers who have successfully taken on a wide variety of Florida personal injury cases.
Something we deal with a lot in Lauderhill is negligent security.
Sadly, this area experiences quite a bit of crime. How much? The violent crime rate is about three times higher than the average for both the country as a whole and the state of Florida, and the property crime rate is above average as well. To really put things in perspective, Neighborhood Scout says that 91 percent of US cities are safer, while Area Vibes says that number is even higher – 93 percent!
When criminal activity is that prevalent, it is even more important for businesses to do their part to keep you safe. Keep doors locked. Make sure parking lots and other areas are well lit. Hire security guards if needed.
If you are robbed or attacked due to unsafe conditions, it may be possible to hold a third party, such as a hotel, liable for what happened. Not only can this enable you to recover financially, it can help you get closure on a horrible chapter of your life – and possibly prevent someone else from suffering as you have.
Do not let them get away with it. Fight for your rights and your family’s future by filing a personal injury lawsuit to help you win the compensation you need and deserve.
Our lawyers know the ins and outs of injury law in Florida and how to get results. We can help you just like we have helped countless others hurt in south Florida – but you have to reach out to us first.
