Westchase Injury Lawyer
An accident or other injury sucks most people into a vortex. The serious injuries usually require immediate hospitalization, which the victim usually cannot afford. As medical and other bills pile up, the victim is unable to work, so there is no way to pay them. The stress victims feel is compounded by the insurance company’s relentless pressure to settle a claim quickly. In these situations, people are understandably tempted to take the initial settlement offer and move on. But there is simply no way to know if this offer is fair.
In this environment, the diligent Westchase injury lawyers at the Rinaldo Law Group begin working immediately to get victims out of these vortexes. We quickly evaluate your case and lay out your legal options. Then, we collect evidence which supports your claim for damages. Then, we put together a compelling case for compensation. The hard work we do on the front end of your claim usually results in better results at the back end.
Matters We Handle
Most personal injuries happen suddenly and without warning. The injury turns the victim’s life completely upside-down in the blink of an eye. Some examples include:
- Vehicle Wrecks: Most car accidents aren’t “accidents” at all. Driver error causes over 90 percent of these incidents. From this perspective, a car crash claim is not really about financial compensation. Rather, it’s about forcing people to accept responsibility for the mistakes they make.
- Swimming Pool Drownings: More of these incidents happen in Florida than in any other state. A few moments under the water could cause a permanent brain injury. Other swimming pool injuries include chemical burns because of excessive cleaning agents. Typically, property owners are responsible for these and other injuries.
- Truck Wrecks: Fully-loaded large trucks weigh over 80,000 pounds. As a result, the force in these collisions is much higher than any vehicle safety system could possibly absorb. Some of the serious injuries these victims sustain include severe burns, head injuries, internal bleeding, and shattered bones.
Other personal injuries happen slowly over time. Medical misdiagnosis-related illnesses are a good example. The misdiagnosis rate is about 20 percent in Florida. That rate might not seem too high, until one considers a doctor’s fiduciary duty. Because of this high duty of care, a 20 percent misdiagnosis rate is absolutely unacceptable.
Our Approach
The Westchase injury lawyers at the Rinaldo Law Group begin every case with a conversation. We quickly ascertain your needs and goals in a particular claim.
Then, the real work begins. Our experience enables us to lay out all your legal options and carefully explain the pros and cons of each one. Dog bites are a good example of this part of the process. Florida’s animal attack law is quite complex. Each possible approach usually has some significant pros and cons.
Your personal injury case may seem tedious and time-consuming at first. However, once we painstakingly build a case, things usually happen quickly.
We prepare every case as if it will go all the way to the Supreme Court, even though most personal injury claims settle out of court. That preparation puts us in an excellent position to negotiate the most favorable settlement possible under the circumstances. These settlements usually benefit victim/plaintiffs. They end the case earlier and give victims more control over the outcome.
