We have witnessed the injuries and damage that can result from a crash and understand the struggle many accident victims face in trying to recover compensation for their losses.

How Can an Orlando Car Accident Attorney Help Me?

Our Orlando car accident attorney can help ensure that you receive full benefits from the insurance company and determine whether you can file a claim for additional damages against the party at fault for the crash.

PIP Insurance and Its Limitations

In Florida, all automobile drivers are required to carry a minimum of $10,000 in Personal Injury Protection (PIP) insurance that will cover 80% of their medical bills and 60% of any lost wages in the event of an accident, regardless of fault. These regulations were enacted in an attempt to reduce the number of crash-related lawsuits filed by Florida residents, as well as to lower insurance rates. Unfortunately, for many injured drivers, this insurance coverage may not be enough to cover the total cost of their medical bills and lost wages, and will not account for property damage, pain and suffering, and other damages.

What We Can Do?

If you’ve been involved in a car, truck or motorcycle accident, we may be able to help you collect compensation beyond that which is provided through insurance claims. We may be able to make a Personal Injury claim to recover money damages to compensate you for your serious Personal Injuries.  To be eligible for a Personal Injury claim or lawsuit, the victim of the crash must have died or sustained a serious Personal Injury such as:

  • A permanent injury
  • Broken bones
  • Permanent scarring or disfigurement
  • Paralysis
  • Brain damage
  • A significant head injury

If you’ve been in an auto, truck or motorcycle accident and it appears that you have sustained a serious Personal Injury as a result, then our Orlando accident attorney and his Legal Team will take action!  Our Orlando accident attorney and his Legal Team will prepare your claim thoroughly by:

  • Collecting police and accident scene reports
  • Questioning witnesses
  • Reconstructing the accident scene
  • Taking photographs of the scene, property damage, and your personal injuries
  • Analyzing medical reports
  • Contacting expert witnesses to review the evidence in your case
  • Speaking with the insurance adjusters to negotiate your accident claim on your behalf

Auto, Truck, or Motorcycle Accident Victims Be aware:  The insurance company or negligent party from which you are attempting to collect compensation will work against you.  They’ll try to claim that your accident injuries are temporary, rather than permanent. Your Orlando car accident attorney and his Legal Team can collect and organize the accident evidence on your behalf to rebut the defendant’s claims.

If you’ve been injured in an auto, truck or motorcycle accident, don’t wait any longer.  Call (407)380-7724 Today!  Or visit www.themendezlawfirm.com and fill out our FREE Case Evaluation form.
