As a brain injury survivor, you could be facing serious and possibly long-term impairments. These can make it difficult to work, provide for your family, enjoy your lifestyle, or care for yourself.
Insurance companies also know how much a brain injury will change your life. As such, they may offer you a low settlement quickly, in the hopes that you will sign before you understand the full extent of your injuries. They may even pressure you into signing by using a “take it or leave it” approach.
When this occurs, you want someone on your side who can help you through this difficult time. An Ocala catastrophic injury attorney can negotiate with insurance companies while you focus your energy on what truly matters—your health and your recovery.

You Have a Limited Time to Seek Financial Recovery
You have all the time in the world to reach maximum medical improvement after suffering a TBI. Yet, the same flexibility does not apply to your personal injury lawsuit. Per Florida Statutes § 95.11, you have just two years from the date of your accident to sue the at-fault party.
While we resolve most personal injury cases through negotiations, you don’t want to lose the right to litigation. That’s because, if the liable insurance company refuses to settle, suing could be your only option for seeking damages. There are also other reasons why a lawsuit may suit your circumstances.
Because we don’t charge upfront fees or costs, there’s no reason to delay starting on your injury case. You can learn more about your rights, options, and next steps during your free legal consultation.

You don’t have to lift a finger when it comes to your case’s progression. All you need to focus on is adapting to your new normal.
Combating Unfair Accusations of Fault
The insurance company may try blaming you for what happened, hoping to avoid paying the full value of your claim. We stand between you and any unfair allegations of fault. Insurance companies know we’re a force to be reckoned with. The insurance adjuster will take your case seriously when they see that we’re in your corner.

Ocala Brain Injury FAQs
How Can I Determine If Someone Else Is Legally Responsible for the Traumatic Brain Injury?
To determine if someone else is legally responsible for a traumatic brain injury in Ocala, FL, you must show that their negligence directly caused the injury. This involves proving they owed you a duty of care, breached that duty, and caused harm as a result. This isn’t your responsibility when you work with us. We’ll evaluate the facts, determine whether another party is liable, and gather evidence to support your claim.
Is There a Time Limit for Filing a Lawsuit Related to a Traumatic Brain Injury in Florida?
Yes, in Florida, the statute of limitations for filing a lawsuit related to a traumatic brain injury is generally two years from the date of the injury. Missing this deadline can prevent you from recovering compensation. It’s important to speak with a member of our team as soon as possible to protect your rights.
How Do I Pay for a Lawyer in a Traumatic Brain Injury Case?
Our traumatic brain injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you don’t pay any upfront costs. Instead, we only get paid if they successfully recover compensation for you. This arrangement allows you to pursue your case without financial strain.
What If the Insurance Company Offers a Settlement Soon After the Traumatic Brain Injury Occurs?
If an insurance company offers a quick settlement after a traumatic brain injury, it’s important to be cautious. These early offers are often lower than what your case may truly be worth. Accepting a settlement too soon could prevent you from receiving compensation for long-term medical costs and other damages. We recommend that you run all offers by us before you accept them.
