Types of Personal Injury
You may be eligible for compensation through a personal injury case if another person acted in a way that was negligent, leaving you with expensive injuries. The legal team at The Law Offices of Anidjar & Levine handles all types of personal injury cases including but not limited to:
- Car accidents
- Bus accidents
- Truck accidents
- Medical malpractice
- Work-related accidents
- Slip and falls
- Bicycle accidents
- Pedestrian accidents

- Wrongful Death
Any of these personal injury cases can leave you with severe damages including broken bones, internal bleeding, back and neck injuries, traumatic brain injury, paralysis, and even death.
Identifying Negligence in A Personal Injury Case
It is important that we identify the negligent actions that led to your injury. Collecting vital documents and evidence, our team of personal injury lawyers will work to identify the following four important elements of personal injury:
- Duty of care: We must demonstrate that the liable party held a legal duty of care to your safety and wellbeing.
- Breach of duty: We must demonstrate that the responsible parties’ negligent actions breached that duty of care.
- Causation: We will identify that the negligence was in fact, the cause of the accident.
- Damages: We will identify that the negligence led to actual damages. These are the costs that we will fight to recover on your behalf.
By identifying these four critical elements, we will build your case and determine who is responsible for your damages.
Pure Comparative Negligence
It is possible for more than one party to be at fault when a personal injury occurs. Even if you are partially responsible for the accident, we can still fight to collect compensation on your behalf. Under Florida’s pure comparative negligence laws, the state would reduce your compensation amount by the percent that you are at fault.
Florida’s Statute Of Limitations
Florida gives us just four years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury case. There are many things that can complicate this process and failing to stay within these strict time limits can make it difficult, if not impossible, to collect the compensation that you deserve. Some details can even shorten the filing time limit.
In order to avoid losing your eligibility to file, it is best to discuss your case with a lawyer as soon as possible.

Gather Important Documents
Our legal team will immediately begin gathering essential documents to identify who is responsible for your damages. Just a few of the documents that may be important to your case include:
- Medical records
- Police report
- Witness statements
- Driver logs
- Training logs
- Images
- Videos
- Expert witness statements
Depending on the details of your case, it may also make sense that we work with experts to recreate the scene of the accident.
Recover Damages
Suffering a personal injury can put you in a difficult financial position. It can leave you with expensive medical bills. If you are unable to return to work, you may find it difficult to keep up with these bills as well as household expenses.
Our team will work to recover the following damages:
- Current and future medical bills
- Property damages
- Rehabilitative costs
- Lost wages and work benefits
- Diminished earning capacity
- Pain and suffering
Because every personal injury case differs, the exact damages that you collect will depend on the details of your case.
Manage All Communications
Your recovery is the most crucial thing following a personal injury. By leaving the legal communications to us, you can focus on your recovery. We will manage all communications from insurance companies and the other legal team while keeping you updated on your case.
It is also possible that the responsible party will offer a settlement. Settlement offers can keep both parties out of court, reducing the cost of legal services and court fees. Our legal team will help you evaluate any settlement offers that you might receive. If an offer does not appropriately cover your damages, then we are ready to turn it down and fight for what you deserve.
