Your Palm Beach Gardens Car Accident Attorney Will Not Stop Fighting for You
Building a personal injury case against an at-fault driver can be time-consuming and complicated. When our law firm handles your case, we can help you avoid the mistakes people make after a car accident.
Our auto accident lawyers will:
- Conduct a comprehensive investigation: Our attorneys are skilled investigators who can uncover critical evidence that may not be apparent on its own.
- Read and review your car accident report: This is important because it contains information about the other drivers involved in your crash and any witnesses. It also includes information about how the accident occurred, such as what caused it and whether there were any mechanical problems.
- Review your medical records: These documents contain valuable information about your injuries and treatment. They can include reports from doctors, nurses, and therapists.
- Calculate the financial value of your case: The amount of money you receive depends on factors like the severity of your injuries, the extent of your losses, and the length of time you need to recuperate.
- Compile and organize evidence: Your attorney must collect all relevant evidence related to your accident, including photos, police reports, witness statements, and medical records.
- Contact the at-fault driver’s insurance carrier: Insurance companies often try to settle cases quickly by offering lowball offers. To get a better settlement, you should contact the insurance company directly.
- Collect available photos and video footage: Photos and videos can provide powerful proof of your injuries and damage to your vehicle.
- Negotiate settlements: Our attorneys can negotiate a fair settlement for your injuries without going to trial.
- File lawsuits: If necessary, we can file a lawsuit against the at-fault driver’s insurance company to seek compensation for your damages.
We’ll handle all verbal, written, and electronic communication related to your case, including obtaining and filing complex insurance claim forms from insurance providers.
We will also represent you on a contingency fee basis to ensure you pay nothing out of pocket for an accident caused by another driver’s negligence.

Your Palm Beach Gardens Car Accident Lawyer Will Work to Prove the Four Elements of Negligence
Your Palm Beach Gardens auto accident attorneys will ensure your case meets all required legal parameters. To start, we’ll work to prove the required elements of negligence, which include:
- Duty of care: The duty element requires that the defendant owed you a legally recognized obligation to act reasonably under the circumstances.
- Breach of duty: The breach element requires that the defendant failed to perform their obligations.
- Causation: Causation requires that the defendant’s actions were the actual cause of your injuries.
- Damages: Damages require that your injuries result in monetary loss.
At the Law Offices of Anidjar & Levine, we’ll do everything possible to prove you are entitled to compensation for the at-fault driver’s negligent actions.
We Gather Evidence to Show Your Losses and Prove Liability
Your physical recovery after a car accident can impede your ability to be an active participant in your case. When we handle evidence collection for you, the file we build may include the following:
- Accident scene photos
- Car accident report
- Job and salary records
- Medical records and bills
- Photos of your injuries
- Witness statements
Because each client we represent is unique, your evidence file may contain additional documentation. Most car accident cases with strong evidence are settled outside the courtroom, so we’ll work hard to build a solid evidence file for you.
Your Car Accident Attorney Will Fight for Economic and Non-Economic Damages
After a negligence-based car accident in Palm Beach Gardens, you may be entitled to recover multiple types of recoverable damages.
Economic Damages for Car Accident Injuries and Losses
Economic damages can include:
- Ongoing medical bills and expenses for medical care
- Income loss until you recover
- Treatment-related travel expenses
- Property damage or total loss
- Diminished property value
Non-Economic Damages You Could Recover
In addition, you may recover the following non-economic damages:
- Emotional distress
- Physical disfigurement
- Mental anguish
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Pain and suffering
Wrongful Death Damages
If your family lost a loved one in the accident, you could be entitled to wrongful death damages, including:
- Funeral and burial expenses
- Loss of financial support
- Loss of domestic support
- Loss of consortium
- Loss of companionship
Finally, depending on the cause of your accident, you might be entitled to collect punitive damages. These are rare and are only awarded in cases where the court deems the at-fault driver’s actions intentional or egregious. Whatever damages you qualify for, our lawyers will work towards getting you the maximum compensation available.
Your Right to Seek Compensation for a Car Accident Has A Time Limit
Doctor’s appointments and follow-up care can easily consume the weeks and months after your accident. However, your recovery should not stop you from filing your lawsuit within the allowable filing deadline.
- You must file a personal injury lawsuit two years from the accident date.
- You have two years from the date of the death of a loved one to file a wrongful death lawsuit.
Your car accident lawyer will work to settle your Palm Beach Gardens case out of court or file your lawsuit before the statute of limitations expires.

These and other injuries can be very serious and even deadly if left untreated, so it’s important to seek medical treatment as soon as possible. We can also use your medical records to help support your claim to get you fair compensation for your losses, so don’t delay.
