Looking for Injury Lawyer West Palm Beach

At Drucker law offices, our accident lawyer in Boca Raton (also, Miami injury lawyer, North Miami accident lawyer, Pembroke Pines accident attorney, Miramar accident lawyer, Plantation lawyer, Tamarac accident lawyer, Coral Springs lawyer, Fort Lauderdale accident lawyer), we assist our clients who were involved in a crash. One of the most frequent queries that we're asked, relates to a individuals rights once they were involved in a car crash. These questions come from both drivers who caused the crash and those that did not.

Let's illustrate. Mary and Joseph are in an accident. Mary is stationery at a red light when Joseph rear-ends her car. Joseph accepts responsibility for this accident and is issued a traffic ticket. They both go to a medical centre. They are both absent from work for a week. After seeing their respective doctors, both Mary and Joseph are diagnosed with permanent injuries. It is a requirement of the law to facilitate entitlement to pain and suffering. Let us look at what their individual rights are and what are the differences between them

Regarding the car, Mary could claim from Joseph's property damage coverage. As Joseph was responsible for the crash, Mary's car must be fixed by his insurance company. There would be no deductible and Mary would not go out of pocket anything through Joseph's insurance. However, Mary's insurance would not fix Joseph's car. If Joseph has collision coverage, then he could get his car fixed through his own insurance but there likely will be a deductible, somewhere between $250 and $1,000. If Joseph does not have collision coverage, then he must fix his car and bear the cost of it in full.

According to Florida law, 80% of medical bills and 60% of wages lost (to the sum of $10,000 is paid for by PIP. This is regardless to who was at fault. In accordance with this PIP coverage, both Mary and Joseph have the exact same rights relating to medical bills and time missed from work. However, Mary will have a claim against Joseph for 20% of out of pocket expenses and 40% of wages. Joseph will not have the capacity to make that claim against either Mary or her insurance company. If Joseph has medical health insurance, he can seek to have unpaid medical bills paid through his health insurance. In the event of temporary disability insurance like sick leave, then he can claim extra monies from that source.

Lastly, allow us to consider the problem of pain and suffering. In Mary's case, she would have a claim for pain and suffering to the extent that she has permanent injury (or death; or permanent disfigurement; or significant scarring). Joseph would not have a claim for pain and suffering. In conclusion, you can see that both parties have some rights, however the party who wasn't at fault would have the most rights. We offer our help to people who find themselves not at fault and provide a free consultation.
