While you can pursue a personal injury claim on your own, you risk settling for less money than you deserve. Hiring an attorney to handle your case will give you time to focus on getting better while also increasing the odds of maximizing your financial award.

Here’s why you should contact Lavent Law, P.A. immediately after your Aventura accident:

Insurance companies are much more likely to negotiate a fair settlement when you’re represented by an attorney.
You may not realize that multiple people could be responsible – and financially liable – for your accident and injuries.
You could miss out on valuable compensation if you let an insurance company decide what your case is worth.
Others involved in your accident will try to blame you for your injuries.

Another person’s negligent actions put you in harm’s way. You didn’t ask to get hurt. You shouldn’t have to deal with the consequences of your injury alone. We are here to help you fight for the money you deserve. Call our office today to learn more.

What If I’m Partly Responsible For My Injury?

Accidents are rarely straightforward. In fact, it’s common for multiple factors to contribute to an accident. In some situations, you may even be partly responsible for your own injuries. Do not panic if you contributed to your accident. Under Florida law, you can still recover compensation as long as you are not more than 50 percent at fault. If you are found more than half responsible, you recover nothing. This rule changed in March 2023.

However, sharing fault for your own injuries will limit the amount of money you can get. Your damages will be reduced by however much you contributed to your accident. For example, you would only be able to recover 70 percent of your damages if you were 30 percent at-fault for an accident.

Be prepared to be blamed for your own injuries. Others involved in your accident will try to shift as much of the blame to you as possible. You can protect yourself and your financial recovery by hiring an attorney to handle your case. We know how to keep these claims from hurting your case. We will investigate your case and find evidence that limits your liability after an accident.

How Long Do I Have to File an Aventura Injury Claim?

The state of Florida limits the amount of time you have to pursue compensation after an accident. Most Aventura personal injury claims based on negligence must be filed within two years of the date of your accident (for accidents after March 24, 2023). You can be denied the money you need and deserve if you wait too long to file your claim.

There are times when you might have more or less time to pursue compensation. This will depend on what type of accident caused your injury.

Birth Injury: Special rules for young children can extend the deadline up to the child’s 8th birthday.
Medical Malpractice: Generally within 2 years of when the injury was, or should have been, discovered.
Wrongful Death: Claims must be filed within 2 years of the date of death.

In most car accident and slip-and-fall cases, the two-year clock starts on the day of the accident, even if your injury is diagnosed later. Some exceptions exist, so don’t count on extra time without talking to a lawyer.

Protect your right to recover compensation by calling us after your accident. We are here to help you fight for the money you deserve.

What Damages Can I Recover After an Aventura Accident?

Whether you’re injured because a rear-end collision or a slip and fall at the Aventura mall, the consequences of an accident can be devastating. If someone else is responsible, you can demand compensation for your accident-related costs.

You may be entitled to compensation for:

Property damage
Medical bills
Lost wages
Disability
Pain and suffering

Loss of enjoyment of life, and more.
