How to choose a lawyer in Gomez

Choose a lawyer who focuses on personal injury rather than one who handles it occasionally. Ask about a real trial track record, since insurers treat cases differently when they know an attorney will go to court. Look for knowledge of local courts and how local insurers handle claims. Get clear contingency terms in writing, including the percentage and costs, and confirm who personally handles your case day to day. Finally, check the attorney's standing with the State Bar. Use these questions as you compare the local attorneys listed in our directory.

What to do after an accident in Gomez

Get medical care first, even if you feel fine, since some injuries show up later. Document the scene and your injuries with photos, and exchange and gather information from everyone involved. Avoid admitting fault or giving a recorded statement to an insurer. Keep records of treatment, bills, and any time missed from work. Then act promptly: Florida has a filing deadline of 2 years from the date of injury for claims on or after March 24, 2023, while older claims had 4 years. Missing that deadline can end your claim, so contacting a local attorney early matters.

Florida injury law, in brief

Florida uses modified comparative negligence with a 51% bar, so you recover if you are not more than 50% at fault, while medical malpractice remains pure comparative.
