Criminal Assault

Protecting Crime Victims in Florida

Crime victims may feel helpless and not know they can seek justice beyond a criminal conviction for their attackers. Florida law gives crime victims clear rights to information about what is going on in their attackers’ criminal cases and a way to seek compensation, often called restitution. Using your state-given rights, you can collect compensation from your attacker for your losses.

Cruise Ship Accidents

A cruise ship accident claim must be handled in a much different way than other boating accident claims. Your statute of limitations is much shorter, and your cruise ticket often states that you must file your lawsuit or claim for injuries only in Miami.

Slip and Fall

It is the responsibility of property owners and managers to maintain a reasonably safe property for visitors (invitees), residents, employees. Homeowner’s and business insurance policies cover a wide variety of claims, including those for dog bites, assaults due to inadequate security, swimming pool drowning, and exposure to toxic chemicals and mold.

Catastrophic Injuries

Catastrophic Injuries are devastating and permanent in nature. Whether they are caused by car accidents, work-related accidents, medical errors, defective products, prescription drug reactions or other dangerous conditions, they have an enormous impact on the lives of the victims and their families.

Car Accident Attorneys

The moments after a car crash can be crucial on making sure you preserve your rights. There are a number of steps you can do to protect yourself and/or a love one. Of course, every situation is different and the list below may not apply to you.

Large Truck Accidents

Accidents involving large trucks are among the most serious and most deadly in the United States. At our firm, we recognize that handling these cases requires a thorough understanding of commercial vehicle regulations on both the federal and state level.

Wrongful Death

A wrongful death claim is a suit that arises from the death of an individual that was caused by the conduct of another. A wrongful death suit is different from other types of personal injury claims because the actual victim (the “decedent”) is not bringing suit, rather it is the family members or the decedent’s estate.
