Identifying All Your Damages

Most people injured in a car crash don’t know all the damages they’re entitled to. Our team will investigate your crash and ensure that we have identified all your recoverable damages. You could recover compensation for your:

• Medical Expenses: Hospital bills, doctor visits, prescriptions, physical therapy, and future medical care
• Lost Wages: Any income you lost while you were unable to work
• Loss of Earning Capacity: Reduced ability to earn in the future
• Property Damage: Repair or replacement of your vehicle and other damaged personal items
• Pain and Suffering: Compensation for physical pain and emotional distress
• Emotional Distress: Anxiety, depression, or PTSD caused by the accident
• Loss of Consortium: Impact on relationships with a spouse or family
• Rehabilitation Costs: Vocational training or therapy to regain skills
• Out-of-Pocket Expenses: Transportation, home modifications, or medical equipment

Unfortunately, some accidents are fatal. If you lost a loved one in a Miramar car accident, Florida’s Wrongful Death Act allows eligible survivors to recover damages, such as funeral and burial costs, loss of the decedent’s financial support, loss of companionship, protection, and guidance, as well as mental pain and suffering. The estate may also recover lost earnings and medical expenses incurred before death.

Dealing With the Insurance Company

Insurance companies don’t want to give you the money you deserve. But we know how to take them on. We have 50 years of experience fighting tooth and nail for clients—and winning.

We Won’t Let the Insurance Company Ignore You

We took on a car accident case in which a young man was rear-ended by another driver in a rental car. The other driver’s insurance company refused to engage with our client, ignoring him entirely until we got involved. Once the insurer realized we weren’t going to back down from the fight, we were able to obtain $410,000 for our client’s neck injury.

We Won’t Let the Insurance Company Blame Your Pain and Injuries on Pre-Existing Conditions

We handled a case in which a company vehicle crashed into our clients’ vehicle, causing severe and life-threatening injuries. The insurance company’s adjuster claimed that our clients’ pre-existing injuries weren’t worth a six-figure settlement. We obtained $350,000.

We’ll Ensure You Understand PIP Coverage

Florida car accidents can be complex due to the state’s no-fault laws. These laws require drivers to turn to their own insurance policy first, regardless of whether or not they were at fault. Drivers must turn to their personal injury protection (PIP) coverage, which covers 80% of their medical bills and 60% of their lost wages, up to the policy limits, which is typically $10,000.

However, only $2,500 will be available if the doctor doesn’t believe it’s an emergency medical condition.

It is also important to note that to access your PIP benefits, you must get medical attention within 14 days of your accident.

We Can Sue the Other Driver If You Qualify

You may be able to sue the other driver if their negligence caused or primarily contributed to your accident. However, you must also prove that you suffered an injury that exceeds the serious injury threshold. That includes:

• “Significant and permanent loss of an important bodily function.
• Permanent injury within a reasonable degree of medical probability, other than scarring or disfigurement.
• Significant and permanent scarring or disfigurement.
• Death”

Your Meldon Law car accident attorney in Miramar can help you prove that your injury qualifies. Once we have done that, we will establish the other party’s negligence:

• The other driver owed you a duty of care to drive safely and prevent accidents.
• They breached that duty by behaving negligently. Negligent behaviors could include speeding, intoxicated driving, distracted driving, aggressive driving, tailgating, or fatigued driving.
• That breach caused your accident and injury. For example, the other driver was texting and didn’t see you stopped at a red light. You suffered whiplash, a spinal cord injury, and a traumatic brain injury.
• You suffered damages, such as medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

If we are able to establish that the other driver caused your accident and injuries, you can recover:

• The remainder of your medical bills
• The remainder of your lost wages
• All other related expenses, such as the cost of transportation to and from doctor’s appointments and home or vehicle renovations to accommodate your injury
• Pain and suffering
• Mental anguish
