Who South Florida Residents Call When Harmed by Others’ Negligence
When you’ve suffered a personal injury due to the recklessness or carelessness of another, you may already realize that the responsible party should compensate you for your injuries. However, you might not know what your first step should be.
The best thing you can do is work with a Fort Lauderdale personal injury attorney who has experience handling – and winning – this type of case. At Lawlor, White & Murphey, we’re confident we can help you find the justice and peace of mind you need to go on after being injured or wronged by your insurer.
As trial lawyers, our job is simple. We represent people who have been harmed by large corporations and insurance companies, or have been injured due to the negligence or improper actions of others.
Airbnb Rentals
Being able to rent out someone's house instead of a hotel room can seem like a godsend when traveling. Not only is there often more room to spread out and settle in, many Airbnb rentals are also cheaper. Because of this, many people do not think to ask themselves an important question: who is liable if I get hurt? Unlike with a hotel, you will not be able to simply sue Airbnb. Who the responsible party is can be quite a bit more complicated. Let us guide you through this process and make sure it goes smoothly and you get the compensation you deserve.
Auto Accidents
South Florida roads and highways are incredibly busy thoroughfares full of people desperately trying to get from point A to point B. But that doesn’t give anyone the right to drive while distracted, drink before getting behind the wheel, or otherwise act recklessly.
Bad Faith Insurance
Most people think that their insurance company is looking out for their best interests, but in reality insurers are businesses that often care more about their bottom line than they do about you.
Bicycle Accidents
Often, bike accidents occur due to the illegal, dangerous, or careless actions of a driver. You can seek reparation for this often devastating type of injury with the help of an experienced bike accident lawyer.
Boating Accidents
Florida is home to the most boats anywhere in our entire country. Unfortunately, we also have the most boating accidents, because far too many people don’t understand how to properly operate a vehicle on the water.
Brain Injuries
Traumatic brain injuries can prevent people from being able to work or even engage in normal activities of daily life; many are life-threatening. If someone you love has suffered a serious brain injury due to another person’s negligence, make sure you get the help you need.
Child Injuries & Accidents
Kids are vulnerable in all kinds of ways, and when they are hurt because of an action that someone else took, you need to do everything in your power to protect them and make sure nothing like this happens again.
Cruise Injury & Maritime
There’s no doubt about it – maritime law is particularly complex, and plenty of people don’t even realize that there are specific laws governing accidents that occur on the water. It’s unfortunate that this area of law is so poorly understood, because it affects plenty of Floridians. With 1,197 miles of coastline, 914,535 registered boats, and an estimated $10.56 billion economic contribution from the boating industry in 2013, the ocean is essential to many Floridians’ lives.
Defective Products
Dangerous, poorly made products lead to injury for thousands of US citizens every year. In the past, these products have made it through the responsible company’s supply chain onto the shelves of stores and into our homes. Corporations have a duty to use reasonable care when designing, manufacturing, and inspecting their products.
Distracted Driving Accidents
It comes as surprise to many that the number one cause of Florida auto accidents isn’t drunk driving—it’s distracted driving. Many are quick to condemn drunk drivers as a dangerous enemy to the safety of other drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians alike.
Dog Bite Injuries
While a dog can’t be held responsible for its behavior, the owner certainly can. If an owner fails to properly train and control their animal, they not only do the dog a disservice, but also put everyone around them at risk, and may be liable for resulting injuries.
DUI Accidents
Intoxicated drivers aren’t just a threat to themselves. They pose a danger to everyone around them, from drivers to bicyclists to pedestrians.DUI accidents are all too common in Florida, where drunk driving fatalities account for nearly 30 percent of all total traffic deaths every year.
Hurricane and Property Damage Claims
Insurers often try to claim that damage suffered during a hurricane was preexisting or actually related to something else that isn’t covered by your policy. Don’t let these kinds of tactics negatively impact your family’s future. Demand fair and just compensation.
Motorcycle Accidents
Unlike car drivers, motorcyclists aren’t protected by things like seat belts, windshields, and doors. If someone hits your motorcycle, the resulting injuries are almost always serious. Don’t let an accident ruin your life.
Negligent Security
When property and business owners cut corners on security measures and personnel, they leave their clients vulnerable to criminal attacks. Whether it’s in a parking lot, a senior living facility, or at an ATM, negligent commercial entities who fail to provide their patrons with security must be brought to justice.
Pedestrian Accidents
Florida roads are built for cars, not people. That’s probably why our state has some of the highest numbers of pedestrian injuries and fatalities in the country. If you want to make things better for everyone, you need to fight back.
Prescription Drug Liability
Despite heavy backlash, major pharmaceutical companies often push untested and dangerous prescription drugs on the market. The side effects of these drugs can range from mildly annoying to harmful to fatal. Strike back against the wrongdoings of these huge corporations today and make sure that no one else is harmed the way you were.
Professional Malpractice
Lawyers, doctors, and financial professionals all have a legal duty of care to all of their clients. If they fail to follow the very specific rules of their profession and it causes you harm, they need to be taken to task.
Public Adjusters
You get insurance for your property because you want to want to make sure that it’s protected if some sort of unexpected emergency occurs. A fire that roars through your home. Pipes that burst. Damage caused by an infestation of mold. And, of course, every Floridian’s worst nightmare, a hurricane that tears through everything in your life and leaves your without anywhere to go.
Uber & Lyft Ride-Sharing Injuries
People allow themselves to get distracted. They drink before getting behind the wheel. They behave recklessly. There are a wide variety of ways that someone can cause a car accident that does serious harm to you, and it is imperative that you hold them accountable.
Premise Liability
No matter how graceful we like to think that we are, we’ve all tripped before, and most of us have fallen flat on our faces at one time or another. If it was a minor fall, you might have just picked yourself up and laughed the incident off, but if the fall was more serious, it can be difficult to move on.
Swimming Pool Accidents
Swimming pools help South Floridians beat the heat—-but they are also the site of thousands of slips, falls, and drowning accidents every year. Whether the pool is owned privately or publicly, the owners have a responsibility to take necessary precautions to prevent the worst-case scenarios. If they fail to do so, they should be held accountable.
Testosterone Injuries
It’s all the rage right now to get testosterone supplements, but there’s a dark side to this industry. Far too many people are using supplements that are only truly needed by a few, and more and more side effects are still being uncovered.
Truck Accidents
If you’re lucky enough to survive an accident with a semi or big rig, you’ll quickly discover that trucking companies will do whatever they can to avoid giving you what you need to recover. You need someone on your side who knows how to hold them accountable.
Wrongful Death
No one can bring back your loved one, but by holding the responsible parties accountable you may be able to help yourself find closure and keep anyone else from having to suffer through the same pain as you.
A HELPING HAND WHEN INJURED FLORIDIANS NEED IT
When you’re involved in an accident, it can throw your entire life off course. One second you’re starting a family and in the running for a promotion, and the next you’re lying in a hospital bed trying to recover from something completely unexpected.
You know that you need medical care to get better, but you spend the entire time worrying. How are you going to pay for this? Where is your family going to find the money to cover your lost income? Will that promotion – or even your job – still be there by the time you get better?
These are the kinds of things that no one wants to have to go through. It’s why people in South Florida try to be as careful as possible – wearing safety gear, driving the speed limit, and taking whatever precautions we can. Unfortunately, as the experienced injury attorneys at Lawlor, White & Murphey know all too well, even the most safety-minded person in the world can’t always protect themselves or their families if someone else acts in a negligent manner.
In a perfect world, no one would ever have to pay for someone else’s mistake, but the world we live in is far from perfect. Our goal is to give you a voice when you need it most, and make sure that you and the people that you love are treated in a fair and equitable manner. It isn’t about using your injury to get money, but rather making sure that when someone else knocks you off of your feet, you have the ability to get back up and keep going.
