Our Belleview Personal Injury Lawyers Put Your Needs First

We have served Florida for more than half a century and are deeply embedded in the communities we serve. We don’t take cases and then occasionally shoot our clients a text message; we treat them like family. Our firm keeps the lines of communication open.

To put it simply: Meldon CARES. We pride ourselves on offering:

• Compassion
• Accountability
• Reliability
• Excellence
• Success-driven results

We believe that everyone needs to be aware of their legal rights. Over the years, we have invested our time in educating the public by writing and providing books, blogs, and consumer guides, hosting podcasts, and producing Law Talk Live, a weekly legal talk show. We do all of this as a free service, giving Floridians the tools they need to understand their rights.

What You Can Expect From Our Belleview Personal Injury Team

The legal services we offer vary on a case-by-case basis. Yet, we strive to offer each of our clients:

Open and Consistent Communication

When you are injured, you want to and must focus on yourself. Shock gives way to pain and confusion as multiple people vie for your time and attention. Our personal injury attorneys work as gatekeepers, dealing with insurance adjusters, police, and others to calm the frenzy and allow you to focus on one thing: your recovery.

Comprehensive Legal Advocacy

We listen to your story, answer your questions, and offer advice when you ask for it. Once you’ve chosen a direction, we implement a legal strategy that puts your needs first. We investigate your accident, handle all paperwork, and calculate your injury-related losses.

Representation Throughout the Claims Process

After filing your insurance claim, we negotiate with the insurers for the full and fair compensation settlement you deserve. If your claim is denied or the insurers do not act in good faith, we prepare for trial and file a personal injury lawsuit seeking a compensation verdict. We are your fiercest advocates who will fight in court for every dime you deserve.

Our Personal Injury Attorneys in Belleview Handle Your Case’s Complexities

There’s no such thing as a straightforward personal injury claim or lawsuit. Even seemingly cut-and-dry cases involve paperwork, negotiations, and an understanding of the liable insurance policy. You don’t have to worry about any case-related challenges with us on your side. We take care of everything your case requires to achieve a fair outcome, including:

Proving the Other Party’s Negligence

We can’t file a claim, allege the other party’s recklessness, and recover damages. We must prove that another party’s negligence caused your accident, severe injuries, and losses. Using the accident report, eyewitness testimony, and other evidence, we assert that:

• The at-fault party had a duty of care to act cautiously. For instance, all motorists in Belleview must obey traffic laws. Property owners must keep their premises in safe condition.
• The at-fault party breached that duty by not acting as a reasonably prudent person would under similar circumstances. For instance, a reasonable motorist would refrain from drinking and driving. A responsible property owner would warn visitors of potential hazards.
• The at-fault party’s recklessness or carelessness caused you to suffer injuries.
• You have financial losses arising from the incident.

We know that understanding the legal principle of negligence can get complicated. Yet, you don’t have to worry about it. All you have to focus on is spending time with your family; in the meantime, our Belleview personal injury lawyers handle everything.

Adhering to the Statute of Limitations

Once we identify the at-fault party and have proof of negligence, our personal injury lawyers in Belleview file a claim with the liable insurance company. However, if negotiations don’t work out, we may file a lawsuit and seek financial compensation through the court system.

You have two years after the date of your injury to file a civil lawsuit. If you do not file within the deadline given by the state, you may be barred from pursuing a judgment. Again, this is yet another thing you don’t have to worry about with our legal representation; we handle your case’s time-sensitive factors, including the statute of limitations.

Combating Unfair Allegations of Negligence

Your case is unique, as are the factors affecting the trajectory of your personal injury claim. Early in discussions, our Belleview personal injury attorneys will discuss Florida’s modified comparative negligence rule as it applies to your case. This rule means that if you are found to be more than 50% responsible for the accident, you can’t recover compensation.

Make no assumptions––and don’t let the other party’s allegations of fault discourage you from seeking damages. Call us today to start your free case review. Here, you can meet our team, voice your concerns, and learn about your legal options.

Our Personal Injury Lawyers Are Committed to Recovering Fair Compensation

How much you can recover depends on many factors unique to your situation. Some compensable losses in your case may include:

• The income you lost during your recovery period, including tips, commissions, and bonuses
• Loss of future earning capacity (if your condition will affect your long-term earning power)
• Medical bills, including but not limited to medical devices, surgery, hospitalization stays, rehab, long-term care, prescriptions, and lab tests
• Property damage (if your car was damaged, for instance)
• Pain and suffering
• Other non-economic damages, including emotional distress, mental anguish, and loss of consortium

Our Law Firm Has Recovered Millions for Our Injured Friends and Neighbors

To us, our case results represent more than the compensation we’ve recovered for injured people; they represent our commitment to justice and legal advocacy. Some of our stories include:

Our client was riding their bicycle when a commercial truck hit them. We secured $3 million for their past, present, and future injury-related losses.

The details of this specific settlement are confidential, only known between our lawyers, our client, and the liable insurance company. Yet, we can disclose that we recovered $1.5 million for the losses arising from a T-bone accident.

Our client was walking through a parking lot when she was hit by a car. She required lower back surgery and a spinal stimulator implant. We secured $1.25 million for her losses.

The outcomes of these cases may not reflect how much you can recover from the liable party. Yet, we hope that these outcomes give insight into our legal advocacy.
