Personal Injury in Miami

Help for accident victims in Miami-Dade County

Personal injuries are the physical or emotional injuries that arise from accidents or the death of a loved one when caused by the negligence, reckless behavior or wrongful act of another party.

These injuries, if they are part of a personal injury claim, are the result of an accident—even when a wrongful act has occurred.  In Florida, these personal injuries are subject to civil recovery, that is, you may file a lawsuit, and the responsible party must answer the suit in settlement negotiations or court. 

Examples of personal injuries include, but are not limited to the following:

How to start your personal injury lawsuit in Miami

When you are a victim of someone else's negligence and suffer serious injuries, Florida statutes limit the amount of time you have to file a lawsuit. It is, therefore, essential to retain an attorney as soon as possible after you are injured. A personal injury lawyer can protect your legal rights and hold responsible parties liable for the damage they caused.

The attorneys at the Law Offices of Ivan A. Schertzer represent injured clients throughout South Florida, including the towns of Miami, Hialeah, Hollywood, Davie, Miramar, Fort Lauderdale, and beyond.
