Here are key factors to consider when choosing a West Palm Beach car accident attorney:

  • Experience: Your attorney should specialize in car accidents, with a proven track record of success in negotiating settlements and representing clients in court.
  • Reputation: Look for online reviews and ask for referrals from trusted sources. A good reputation shows that the attorney is respected and trusted in the legal community.

Your Questions Answered

SHOULD I GET A LAWYER AFTER A CAR ACCIDENT IN WEST PALM BEACH?

We know that being involved in a car accident in West Palm Beach is a difficult situation. So it’s a good idea to consult with a car accident lawyer. An attorney can help you understand your legal rights and options, navigate the complex legal process, and negotiate with insurance companies on your behalf.

Many car accident attorneys in West Palm Beach work on a contingency fee basis, which means they only get paid if you win your case. The typical contingency fee ranges from 33% to 40% of the settlement or award, depending on the complexity of the case.

Even if the car accident is minor, it’s still a good idea to consult with a car accident lawyer. An attorney can help you understand your legal rights and options, and ensure that you are fairly compensated for any damages or injuries. Additionally, some injuries may not be immediately apparent after the accident, so it’s important to have a lawyer review your case to ensure that your rights are protected.

If you have been injured in a car accident in West Palm Beach, you may be able to sue the at-fault driver for damages. To succeed in a lawsuit, you must prove that the other driver was negligent and that their negligence caused your injuries. Damages that you may be able to recover include medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and property damage.

PREMISE LIABILITY

$450,000

James was searching for equipment for painting at Home Depot. In the aisle next to him, there was a worker on a lift stocking the highest shelf. The worker pushed boxes so far across the shelf that they fell off the other edge and hit James in the head. The force almost knocked James unconscious. He sat down and the loud bang got the worker off the ladder to see what fell. When they saw James they offered him a bucket and made a report. James did not recall leaving the store or how he got home. He did not recall much except being at home depot and getting hit in the head. Home Depot told him that it was a small box of dust masks that hurt him. We discovered it was actually a large box of emergency kits that fell off the shelf.
