Our Aventura Personal Injury Attorneys Handle a Wide Range of Negligence Cases

When you suffer injuries because of someone else’s bad behavior, you should not have to pay for the medical care and other costs required to manage your injuries and heal. Florida law may allow you to hold them legally responsible and recover compensation based on your expenses and losses.

An Aventura personal injury lawyer from our team represents victims and fights for maximum compensation on their behalf. We have the experience, skill, and knowledge to handle a wide range of negligence cases, including:

• Car Accidents: We can handle claims involving serious injuries in Aventura collisions caused by negligent drivers, defective vehicle parts, and hazardous road conditions. Florida has no-fault insurance laws, but we can help clients pursue additional compensation if they suffer serious injuries.
• Truck Accidents: We represent victims of accidents involving commercial vehicles. These accidents often result in severe injuries due to the size and weight of tractor-trailer trucks. Liability in these cases can be complex, but we’ll navigate it on your behalf.
• Bicycle and Pedestrian Accidents: Florida law protects bicyclists and cyclists who share the roads with vehicles. Our team can help you recover compensation for injuries caused by negligent drivers.
• Other Traffic Accidents: We also represent victims of accidents involving motorcycles, buses, and rideshare vehicles. Each type of accident has unique legal considerations, which our attorneys will consider when handling your claim.
• Workplace Injuries and Workers’ Compensation: We help clients pursue payouts through Florida’s workers’ compensation system, which provides medical benefits and wage replacement, and third-party claims.
• Dog Bites: Florida law holds dog owners strictly liable for bites in many cases. Our lawyers can help you build a case and file your claim.
• Slip and Fall: Our lawyers build cases to show property owners were aware of or should have been aware of hazards on their property, allowing us to hold them accountable for your slip, trip, or fall injuries.
• Other Premises Liability Injuries: We represent victims who suffered injuries from negligent security, swimming pool accidents, fires, and other hazards on someone else’s property.

How Much Does It Cost to Hire an Aventura Personal Injury Lawyer?

Our Aventura personal injury attorneys work on a contingency fee basis. This means you do not pay any upfront fees for our services or representation. Instead, your lawyer’s fee is a percentage of the settlement or court award you receive. The details of these agreements vary, but your attorney will be able to explain the percentages to you in a language you can understand before you hire our team.

If we do not win your case, you will not owe any attorney fees. We can discuss how we will handle your fees and costs during your free consultation with our team. We will not ask you to sign a contract or otherwise agree to let us manage your case until you are comfortable with the fee structure.

Our Personal Injury Lawyers in Aventura, FL, Fight for Maximum Compensation

Our lawyers know what recovering money to cover your accident-related expenses and losses means. We understand that your physical, emotional, and financial recovery are all linked, and it can be difficult to reach maximum medical improvement without the money to pay for your treatment, care, and rehabilitation.

Economic Damages

• Medical expenses and related care costs
• Long-term care and support expenses
• Lost wages, tips, gig work, and other income
• Diminished earning capacity for lasting impairments
• Property damage repair or replacement costs
• Out-of-pocket expenses

Non-Economic Damages

• Reduced quality of life
• Loss of independence, mobility, and other lasting disabilities
• Disfigurement and scarring

Wrongful Death in an Aventura Negligence Accident Case

Our Aventura wrongful death attorneys represent loved ones of fatal accident victims. Under Florida law, the personal representative of the victim—the executor of the estate recognized by the courts—files a wrongful death action on behalf of surviving family members and heirs.

These cases could allow the victim’s family to recover damages for their lost income, loss of services, medical bills, funeral and burial costs, and non-economic damages.

How Our Aventura Lawyers Build a Convincing Personal Injury Case

To hold an at-fault party accountable for their careless or reckless actions, we must have evidence that negligence occurred. This requires us to document four elements:

• Duty of care
• Breach of duty
• Causation
• Harm

A duty of care is usually established by the applicable laws, such as traffic laws, premises liability laws, or dog bite laws. A breach of duty occurs when the party who owes the duty of care violates those laws. This can cause an accident or incident, leading to injuries and other harm.

To prove negligence, we investigate what happened and collect evidence to support our allegations of wrongdoing. The evidence in these cases can vary widely but often includes:

• Relevant medical records
• Eyewitness statements
• A report from the Aventura Police Department
• An accident report filed by a store manager
• Accident scene photos
• Expert testimony from medical professionals, economists, and others
• Video footage of the incident, when available
• Medical bills, income documentation, receipts, and other paperwork

After developing a compelling argument to support our claim, an Aventura injury lawyer from our team demands fair compensation for you. This usually leads to settlement negotiations. If you and the insurer come to an agreement, the case is over.

When the circumstances call for it, our attorneys will file a lawsuit against the liable party or parties in an appropriate civil court. We will represent our client throughout this process, including during a trial in front of a judge and jury, if necessary. Under Fla. Stat. § 95.11, we generally have up to two years from the accident date to sue.
