Lawyers Can Offer Responsive Legal Care
The team at the Law Offices of Anidjar & Levine treats clients as individuals who deserve a personalized legal approach. A lawyer or their team will meet with you or any loved ones who may be plaintiffs in a lawsuit or beneficiaries of an insurance claim. They will listen and learn exactly how your accident has affected you.
Car accidents can cause immense pain and loss, and your lawyer knows how to help car accident victims like yourself. One of the first steps your lawyer may take for your case is determining who has caused you to suffer losses and why that person is liable.
Your Lawyer Will Address Liability for Your Accident
Lawyers can determine who is at fault for their client’s losses. Every accident has a specific set of circumstances, and your lawyer may learn how your accident happened by:
- Speaking with you or a loved one involved in the accident
- Reviewing any existing police reports
- Speaking with witnesses or reviewing existing witness accounts
- Reviewing evidence such as videotapes, which may show your accident happening
Knowing how your accident happened could be critical for your lawyer to determine who is liable for your accident. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) found that drivers are responsible for the vast majority of accidents, and at least one driver could be responsible for yours.
A driver may not have been paying proper attention when your accident happened. The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) explains that drivers can be distracted any time that they take their attention off of driving, take one or more hands off of the wheel, or take their eyes off of the road.
A distracted driver may be negligent, and a negligent driver could owe victims like you compensation for the harm that their negligence causes. Other forms of driver negligence may include:
- Tailgating
- Driving too fast
- Failing to drive cautiously in dangerous road or weather conditions
- Driving while intoxicated
- Failing to respond appropriately to traffic signals
Drivers may also be responsible for failing to ensure that their vehicle is safe. Events like tire blowouts and items falling from a vehicle could be the fault of a driver.
A Sarasota personal injury lawyer will determine if any parties besides a driver—like an employer or government—are responsible for your accident. Call the Law Offices of Anidjar & Levine today to speak with our team.
We Will Handle Every Aspect of Your Case
The team at Anidjar & Levine handles clients’ legal cases while their clients worry about getting better. As part of this relationship, you can ensure that:
- You receive any emergency care that you require
- You have your injuries formally diagnosed
- You have a clear path to recovery
- You are able to receive follow-up medical care as needed
As you look out for your health or the health of your loved one, your lawyer will begin forming your case for awards. Some clients may be best suited by bringing an insurance claim, while a lawsuit may be more appropriate for others.
A Lawyer Can Deal With Insurance Agents for You
Insurance claims can be daunting. You likely did not expect to be in a car accident, and the sudden prospect of having to file an insurance claim could cause you to worry. A lawyer can handle your insurance claim for you and deal with insurance representatives on your behalf.
A lawyer handling your claim can be convenient, but it may also help you defend your rights. A lawyer will not allow insurance companies to pressure you into accepting compensation that is less than you deserve. If the insurance company does not provide the compensation that your lawyer seeks, then they may transition your case into a lawsuit.
How One of Our Lawyers Can Lead Your Lawsuit
Your lawyer may turn to a lawsuit after first filing an insurance claim in order to recover compensation. Your lawyer may lead your lawsuit by:
- Documenting your account of your accident
- Collecting witness accounts of your accident
- Gathering physical evidence
- Documenting your medical expenses, lost income, and other losses
- Calculating the value of your non-economic losses such as pain and suffering
- Negotiating a pre-trial settlement
Most lawsuits result in a settlement, as the American Bar Association (ABA) explains. Your lawyer may finalize a settlement before a trial and may take your case to trial if they cannot reach an acceptable settlement.
