Miami Daycare Negligence Lawyer

September 2, 2020 in Personal Injury /by Mark Kaire

Children deserve the safest and healthiest environments where they can learn and grow. The decision to entrust children to a daycare facility has to be taken with caution, care and diligent research.  Parents need to take extra precautions by interviewing caregivers and examining facilities carefully before leaving their child at a daycare facility. 

Florida law defines “Child Care” as the care, protection, and supervision of a child, for a period of less than 24 hours a day on a regular basis, which supplements parental care, enrichment, and healthy supervision for the child in accordance with his or her Individual needs, and for which a payment is made for care. 

A Child Care facility under Florida law “includes any child care center or child care arrangement which provides child care for more than five children unrelated to the operator and which receives a payment, fee or grant for any of the children receiving care, wherever operated and whether or not operated for profit”. 

Public schools, summer day camps, Bible schools etc. are the notable exceptions to the above definition.  

Negligence is defined as “Failure to take reasonable care to avoid causing injury or loss to another person.”  

To prove negligence, the plaintiff (the injured party) must establish the following four main elements:- 

  • The defendant (the daycare center) owed the plaintiff (the injured child) a reasonable duty of care.   

A daycare center is legally responsible for the injuries caused by the negligent actions or inactions of it’s employees or management.  It’s the daycare center’s duty not only to provide reasonable supervision, but also to properly inspect and maintain the daycare center including its classrooms, hallways, bathrooms, indoor and outdoor play areas in a reasonable and safe condition. 

  • The Daycare center breached it’s duty of care. 

    The breach of care by the defendant is the crux of the personal injury law.  If the daycare center breaches any of its duties or responsibilities, it can be held liable for the injuries sustained by the child.  It is the plaintiff’s burden of proof to convince the judge or jury that there was a breach of care committed by the defendants daycare facility. 

     

  • The breach of duty by the Defendant caused the accident. 

    It is not enough to show that the Defendant was negligent, careless or reckless,  the breach of duty must directly result in injuries suffered by the child.  It has to be established that the negligent action or inaction of the staff of the  daycare facility was the main cause of the injury suffered. 

     

  • The accident caused compensable damages. 

The lawyer of the plaintiff child has to establish that his or her client suffered damages due to the breach of duty by the daycare facility.  Damages may include physical injury, pain and suffering, mental anguish, emotional distress, lost wages of parents, loss of quality of life. 

WHAT SHOULD YOU DO AFTER YOUR CHILD HAS BEEN INJURED AT A DAYCARE FACILITY. 

  • ENSURE YOUR CHILD GETS TIMELY TREATMENT. 

Getting your child treated for the injuries sustained should be your top priority.  Call 911 or get your child to the nearest medical facility immediately. 

  • COLLECTION OF EVIDENCE. 

    After getting your child necessary medical attention and ensuring his or her safety, try to collect vital evidence such as the incident report from the daycare facility,  names and addresses of staff members who were present at the time of the accident and also try to get statements from them. 

     

  • CAPTURE PHOTOS AND TAKE VIDEO RECORDINGS. 

    It is essential to take photos of the injuries sustained by your child and also of the location where the accident occurred. It is necessary to show the insurance company adjuster or the jury the full impact and extent of the injuries sustained by your child.  Ask the daycare facility to provide you the security camera footage of the accident. 

     

  • AVOID GIVING STATEMENTS TO REPRESENTATIVES OF THE DAYCARE FACILITY. 

It is likely that before you speak to a Miami daycare negligence lawyer, representatives of the daycare facility will try to get you to agree to settlement terms and conditions that benefit them.  Avoid giving statements or signing any papers before consulting your daycare negligence attorney.  Do not accept blame and also avoid blaming anyone. 

EXAMPLES OF DAYCARE FACILITY NEGLIGENCE- 

Some major factors that lead to violations by DayCare facilities are:-

  • FAILURE TO SUPERVISE. 

If a child is injured or harmed due to the lack of reasonable supervision, the failure to supervise reasonably amounts to negligence. 

  • FAILURE TO KEEP PREMISES SAFE. 

    A daycare facility’s failure to provide a safe environment can lead to injuries to children in its care.  Leaving medicines or toxic substances within reach of children or not picking and putting away toys after children have played can lead to injuries to the children. 

     

  • FAILURE TO TAKE CARE OF A CHILD’S SPECIAL DIETARY NEEDS. 

    If a child suffers from an allergic reaction to certain foods,  then he or she should not be fed such foods.  Failure to comply with this can be considered an act of negligence. 

     

  • FAILURE TO SCREEN EMPLOYEES. 

It is the duty of the daycare facility to ensure that they conduct proper screening and thorough background checks on their employees.  Daycare facilities should avoid hiring individuals with a history of child abuse or reported instances of negligence at their former workplaces. 

TYPES OF INJURIES SUSTAINED BY CHILDREN AT DAYCARE FACILITIES:- 

Most common daycare facility accident injuries are :- 

  • Broken bones and Fractures.
  • Cuts.
  • Dislocations.
  • Poisoning.
  • Choking on food or other objects.
  • Dental injuries.
  • Food borne illnesses.
  • Injuries caused by outsiders.
  • Eye Injuries.
  • Injuries caused by other children.
  • Wrongful death.

Miami Construction Accident Lawyer

August 28, 2020 in Construction Accidents /by Mark Kaire

The good news is the Miami and South Florida construction industry is booming. The bad news is all that construction activity often leads to more construction accidents. To that end, just a few weeks ago 6 workers were injured after being hit by falling rebar in Brickell.

The construction industry is one of the most accident-prone sectors of the economy. Construction workers are subject to high levels of risk as they are often involved in executing potentially dangerous tasks such as lifting heavy objects, operating heavy machinery, and performing job duties at elevated heights. 

Adherence to proper protocol and safety practices can decrease a worker’s risk of injury. 

A variety of different factors impact the determination of liability for a construction accident.  Our team of experienced construction accident lawyers analyze these factors to build a solid case for an injured worker’s right to compensation. 

Important factors that impact a construction accident case are:- 

  • LOCATION OF THE ACCIDENT. 

Location of the construction accident is a very important factor in determining liability.  If a site has a history of construction accidents, it clearly indicates that the owner or the party in charge of the premises neglected to correct unsafe conditions. 

  • CONDITIONS OF THE ACCIDENT SITE. 

    If conditions prevailing at the site of the construction accident  breached safety standards and regulations, then the owner or the party in charge of the premises will be held liable for the injuries sustained by the victim of a construction accident. 

  • EQUIPMENT IN USE. 

    If the construction accident was result of equipment malfunction or faulty equipment, the manufacturer is liable to pay damages to the victim.  Irregularities in equipment use and not following standard equipment using procedures are also important in determining liability. 

  • PARTY IN CHARGE OF THE CONSTRUCTION ACCIDENT SITE. 

    If an engineer, or a contractor, or an architect is in charge of a site and is responsible for maintaining safe conditions on the premises, then that entity can be held liable for the construction accident.  In such instances, the owner can escape liability. 

  • OWNER OF THE SITE. 

    The owner of the site is responsible for maintaining safe conditions on that property unless an agreement exists between the owner and a contractor placing liability on the contractor.  If an owner knowingly allows a contractor to carry out unsafe work on his or her property, then the owner is liable for any resulting injures. 

  • LEGAL RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE ACCIDENT VICTIM AND THE LIABLE PARTY. 

Compensation will not be legally enforceable if the victim was accessing the construction site against the will or without the knowledge of the party in charge of the site.  The victim of the accident, to be liable for damages has to prove that his presence at the site was permitted by the party in charge of the site. 

COMMON TYPES OF CONSTRUCTION ACCIDENTS. 

 Some common types of construction accidents are:- 

  • Slips and falls. 
  • Transportation accidents ( forklift accidents or accidents involving trucks on construction sites) 
  • Exposure to harmful substances, fumes etc. 
  • Scaffolding accidents. 
  • Poorly maintained or defective equipment. 
  • Improper training. 
  • Being struck by falling objects. 

TYPES OF INJURIES SUSTAINED IN CONSTRUCTION ACCIDENTS. 

Most common construction accident injuries are : 

  • Broken bones and Fractures
  • Spinal cord injuries.
  • Contusions.
  • Sprains and strains.
  • Lacerations.
  • Traumatic brain injuries.
  • Permanent disability.
  • Wrongful death.

     

STATUTE OF LIMITATION FOR FILING A CONSTRUCTION ACCIDENT CASE IN FLORIDA. 

There are specific time limits, restrictions and rules for filing an accident claim.  An experienced construction accident lawyer ensures that you fully understand the Federal, State and Local laws that might apply to your case.  Florida statute of Limitations for construction accidents is four years after the accident occurred. In general terms, residents of Florida have four years from the date of the construction accident to initiate a civil lawsuit.  

If an accident has resulted in a wrongful death, the plaintiffs have only two years to file a suit in Florida. 

It is in the best interests of the plaintiff to enlist the services of an experienced Construction Accident lawyer.  Sufficient time is necessary to collect evidence to establish the defendant’s liability. Various witnesses have to be traced and interviewed. Numerous records have to be collected and opinion of experts has to be sought.  

COMPENSATION FOR VICTIM OF A CONSTRUCTION ACCIDENT IN  MIAMI. 

Our Miami construction accident lawyers seek to get maximum compensation for the victim of a construction accident and help him or her explore other options and alternative ways to seek additional compensation for injuries sustained. 

Under Florida workers’ compensation laws, employers are granted immunity from liability for work injuries sustained by their workers. 

Florida workers’ compensation laws allow almost all workers injured in the scope and course of employment to collect benefits, regardless of whether the employer or the worker was responsible. 

Florida, being a Comparative Fault State,  allows a person to recover damages irrespective of his or her degree of fault.  A Court will apportion fault among the parties, and the plaintiff is entitled to recover damages to the extent, he or she is not responsible for causing his or her injuries. 

Our Miami construction Accident lawyers help victims recover:- 

  • Medical Bills. 
  • Lost Wages. 
  • Damages suffered due to Pain and Suffering. 
  • Damages suffered due to Emotional Distress. 
  • Costs of future corrective surgeries. 

THIRD PARTY LIABILITY. 

Employees are often eligible for worker’s compensation benefits after a construction accident but this benefits only cover a worker’s income losses and injury costs. 

The advantage of filing a third party lawsuit is that it enables a victim to recover damages for full costs of the accident, even if some of this costs have been covered by workers’ compensation.    

Third party liability in a construction accident arises when a third party other than the injured worker or the employer is responsible for the injuries or some of the injuries sustained by the injured worker.  Most common third parties responsible for construction accidents are, 

  • Construction site owners. 
  • Contractors and subcontractors. 
  • Engineers 
  • Architects 
  • Equipment manufacturers. 

If a worker sustains an injury as a result of an construction accident where a faulty tool or defective equipment was the cause or one of the causes, then that worker may pursue a claim against the manufacturer of that device under the theory of product liability. These devices include scaffolds, lifts, ladders, safety harnesses or other safety equipment. 

In some cases, property owners can be held liable for construction accidents on their property and the victim may pursue a claim under premise liability.  The plaintiff must establish the following elements: 

  • Defendant owned, leased or was in control and charge of the construction site. 
  • Defendant was negligent in the maintenance of the site. 
  • Plaintiff was harmed. 

WHY HIRE KAIRE & HEFFERNAN ? 

Construction Accident cases involve complex and intricate legal concepts.  Determining liability for injuries can be a difficult process which an injured worker should not attempt to undertake without the expert guidance of a competent construction accident attorney. 

Our qualified and experienced Attorneys possess in depth knowledge and experience to assist a victim and his family to navigate through complex construction accident laws.  Our team relentlessly fights to secure maximum compensation through verdicts and settlements for victims of construction accidents in Miami and all across Florida. 

Our team of creative and crafty construction accident lawyers in Florida can guide and assist an injured worker and also file a lawsuit on his or her behalf to get additional compensation. 

Our team of Miami construction accident lawyers know how to effectively deal with Attorneys and Insurers of the employers, owners of construction sites, parties in charge of construction sites and third parties who try to deny the plaintiff’s claim or reduce the claim value significantly.

Miami Truck Accident Lawyers

August 26, 2020 in Car Accidents /by Mark Kaire

All auto accidents are dangerous. However, if such accidents involve a truck, then the risk of serious injuries and even death increases significantly.   The cost of injuries and damages rise in accidents involving trucks. 

A victim of a truck accident enters into a legal battle with the driver, the trucking company, and the insurance company to receive full compensation for Injuries, which is impossible without the able guidance of a competent and experienced truck accident lawyer. 

If you have been the victim of a truck accident, then the actions you take soon after a truck accident can have a major impact on your case.  Our truck accident lawyers recommend that you do the following:- 

  • STAY AT THE SCENE OF THE ACCIDENT. 

After an accident, do not leave the scene of the accident.  Stay in the vicinity of the accident scene and remove yourself, your passengers and the vehicle from being exposed to further harm. 

  • REPORT THE ACCIDENT. 

    It is important to call emergency services and the Police to report the accident. 

     

  • ASSESS INJURIES. 

    Check on the people involved in the accident .  Assess their injuries and your own injuries as well.  If necessary go to the emergency room as soon as possible to check for potential injuries. 

     

  • TAKE PHOTOS AND CAPTURE VIDEO FOOTAGE OF THE WRECK. 

    If possible, use your cellphone to capture images of the entire scene and also of vehicles involved in the accident from various angles.  It is important to take photos of road signs, road conditions (such as slickness from rain).  Check for skid marks left on the road by the vehicles involved in the accident. The truck accident company will likely have their safety investigator on the scene. Accordingly, you should either call a lawyer right away or you should photograph the scene.

     

  • AVOID MAKING STATEMENTS OR GIVING DETAILS OF THE ACCIDENT ON SOCIAL MEDIA. 

    Posts on social media right after an accident can be used against you in an injury lawsuit with regard to severity of injuries sustained.  While speaking to representatives of other parties involved in the accident, refrain from blaming anyone or accepting blame for the accident. 

  • GET YOURSELF ASSESSED FOR SERIOUS INJURIES. 

Concussions and internal bleeding do not show obvious symptoms right away. Medical records of injuries sustained can be vital in recovering adequate compensation. 

COMMON CAUSES OF TRUCK ACCIDENTS. 

 Government agencies and truck manufacturers work together to ensure road, vehicle and driver safety,  yet truck accident numbers continue to rise.  Some major factors that contribute to truck accidents are:- 

1.   Driver errors. 

The most common errors of truck drivers that lead to accidents are as follows:

  • Failure to yield right of way. 
  • Impairments (alcohol, illness, fatigue). 
  • Reckless driving. 
  • Failure to keep in proper lane.

COMPENSATION FOR VICTIM OF A TRUCK ACCIDENT IN  MIAMI. 

 Miami truck accident lawyers seek to get maximum compensation for the victim of a truck accident and help him or her explore other options and alternative ways to seek additional compensation for injuries sustained. 

Florida laws provide compensation to truck accident victims for injuries and damages caused by the negligence of truck drivers.  Given below are the types of damages that a victim of a truck accident may be able to recover:- 

ECONOMIC DAMAGES. 

  • Past and current medical costs. 

In most of the truck accident cases, the medical bills are the largest single expense incurred by the victim.  Adequate medical care and treatment is required by the victim for his injuries. 

  • Future medical costs. 

    After initial treatment and rehabilitation, victims of truck accidents often require further medical care in the future.  Expert testimony from doctors and therapists can establish that the victim requires further extensive treatment. 

     

  •  Lost wages and business income. 

    A victim, whether employed, self employed or a business owner, is entitled to recover compensation for the time spent away from work or business. 

     

  • Loss of future earning capacity. 

    Some injuries harm the victims in such a manner that they are no longer able to do the job that they were doing before the accident. In many instances, a victim may have to change from a full time job to a part time job or move from a highly paid job to a lower paying job.  In such cases, additional compensation maybe awarded. 

     

  • Permanent injury and disability. 

    Some injuries have life long implications on the health of a victim of a truck accident. 

A victim never recovers fully from his injuries. 

NON ECONOMIC DAMAGES. 

  • Pain and suffering. 

Injuries cause pain which can be extreme and debilitating.  Such pain is accompanied by emotional suffering and stress.  Florida law allows victims to collect compensation for such suffering. 

  • Emotional distress. 

    Additional mental and emotional illnesses can arise from injuries sustained in a truck accident.  Emotional distress, if proven by experts can support a victim’s claim for compensation. 

     

  • Loss of consortium. 

    Injuries sustained in truck accidents can limit and restrict a victim’s basic life functions resulting in loss of love, affection and companionship.  Under loss of consortium, a victim can claim damages for physical isolation suffered due to injuries sustained in truck accident. 

     

  • Loss of enjoyment of life. 

    A victim of a truck accident is entitled to receive compensation if he or she is unable to perform physical, social and recreational activities which he or she enjoyed performing before sustaining injuries in the truck accident.

Miami Pedestrian Accident Lawyers

August 21, 2020 in Car Accidents /by Mark Kaire

Walking is one of the best ways to get around Miami. Unfortunately, pedestrian accidents due to negligence are one of the greatest causes of deaths and serious injuries in Miami and throughout Florida.  

Negligence is defined as “Failure to take reasonable care to avoid causing injury or loss to another person.”  

To prove negligence, the plaintiff (the injured party) must establish the following four main elements:- 

  • The defendant (the accused party) owed the plaintiff a reasonable duty of care.   

Drivers owe a duty of care towards pedestrians and others on the roadway when they get behind the wheel of a vehicle. 

  • The Defendant breached his or her duty of care. 

    The breach of care by the defendant is the crux of the personal injury law.  It is the plaintiff’s burden of proof to convince the judge or jury that there was a breach of care committed by the defendant. 

     

  • The breach of duty by the Defendant caused the accident. 

    It is not enough to show that the Defendant was negligent, careless or reckless, it has to be established beyond reasonable doubt that his or her act of negligence was the main cause of the accident. 

     

  • The accident caused compensable damages. 

The plaintiff has to establish that he or she suffered damages due to the breach of duty by the Defendant.  Damages may include physical injury, pain and suffering, economic damages, mental anguish, emotional distress, lost wages, loss of quality of life and/or property damage.  

Pedestrians who survive accidents involving cars, trucks, buses, motorcycles, or other vehicles often suffer serious Injuries.  Pedestrians have no protection if a vehicle crashes into them. 

Motorists have seatbelts and airbags, motorcyclists and bicyclists often wear helmets and other protective and safety gear, but pedestrians have nothing to lessen the force of the impact. 

Most victims of pedestrian accident require months or even years of intensive medical treatment and rehabilitation before they recover. 

COMMON CAUSES OF PEDESTRIAN ACCIDENTS. 

 Government agencies work diligently to ensure pedestrian safety by reducing speed limits and introducing stricter traffic laws, yet accident numbers continue to rise.  Some major factors that contribute to pedestrian accidents are:- 

  • Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. 
  • Distracted drivers or pedestrians. 
  • Falling asleep while driving. 
  • Speeding. 
  • Recklessness. 
  • Bad weather conditions. 
  • Failure to obey traffic rules. 
  • Roadways in a bad condition. 
  • Construction zone. 
  • Pedestrians not using crosswalks to cross roads. 
  • Pedestrians wearing clothes of darker colors at night. 

TYPES OF INJURIES SUSTAINED IN PEDESTRIAN ACCIDENTS. 

Most common pedestrian accident injuries are :- 

  • Broken bones and Fractures.
  • Facial injuries .
  • Spinal injuries/ paralysis.
  • Loss of limbs and amputations.
  • Road Burns/Scarring
  • Lacerations.
  • Traumatic brain injuries.
  • Permanent disability.
  • Death.

     

STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS FOR FILING A PEDESTRIAN ACCIDENT CASE IN FLORIDA 

There are specific time limits, restrictions and rules for filing a pedestrian accident claim.  An experienced pedestrian accident lawyer ensures that you fully understand the Federal, State and Local laws that might apply to your case.  Florida statute of Limitations for pedestrian accidents is four years after the accident occurred. In general terms, residents of Florida have four years from the date of the accident to initiate a civil lawsuit.  

If an accident has resulted in a wrongful death, the plaintiffs have only two years to file a suit in Florida. 

COMPENSATION FOR VICTIM OF A PEDESTRIAN ACCIDENT IN  MIAMI. 

Our Miami pedestrian accident lawyers seek to get maximum compensation for the victim of an accident and help him or her explore other options and alternative ways to seek additional compensation for injuries sustained. 

If the victim of a pedestrian accident owns a car and has Florida’s mandatory Personal injury Protection (PIP) insurance, his or her injuries and lost wages will be covered up to $10,000.  If the victim of the pedestrian accident does not own a car, then the at fault party’s PIP insurance will cover the damages and costs.  In most cases, this Insurance is not sufficient to cover the victim’s total amount of accident related expenditure.

How To Prepare For A Safe Summer Road Trip

August 10, 2020 in Car Accidents /by Mark Kaire

Every summer sees an increase in packed cars and RVs on the road, full of families off on their summer vacation road trips. This number may increase this summer as families search for ways to safely leave their homes during COVID-19. Road trips are adventures that build memories for families, but accidents can happen. Prevent mishaps and injuries by preparing for your trip with safety in mind. 

Get Your Car Ready 

Your car will play a big role in keeping your trip safe and on schedule. Before you take the trip, you should give your car a thorough inspection. Schedule necessary maintenance such as oil changes or a tune-up. 

When looking over your car, be sure to check: 

  • Windshield wipers 
  • Fluids 
  • Tires 
  • Battery 
  • Brakes 

    Make necessary fixes or replacements or take your car to your mechanic to have the necessary services performed. Taking the time to get your car ready can prevent breakdowns or accidents. 

    Pack Your Car 

    When packing your car, you should think about what you’re packing, as well as the way you’re packing it. Be sure that you have a spare tire for your car, as well at the correct tire iron and a jack. If you have to pull over after getting a flat tire, be aware of the space you place between your car and traffic on the road. Many individuals out of the cars on the side of the road have been struck and injured or killed in the past. In fact certain portions I-95 do not have an emergency shoulder, as the emergency lane was re purposed for a profit generating express lane. You may also consider purchasing a road safety kit, which contains items like a reflective vest, a flashlight, jumper cables, and other tools to help get you back on the road. Don’t forget to pack a basic first-aid kit as well. 

    When packing your car, take into account your car’s weight limit and where the weight is in the car. Heavy items should be loaded close to the floor, and roof racks or roof-mounted cargo containers should only be used to carry lightweight, bulky items. Placing too much weight on the roof of your car can change the way it handles and increase the risk that you will lose control or roll over. It is also important to pack emergency supplies and tire changing tools where they can easily be reached if needed. 

    Unloading your entire car on the side of the road probably isn’t your idea of a good vacation memory. Make sure that maps or GPS devices, drinks, snacks, entertainment, and coats are where they can easily be reached during the trip. 

    Drive Safely 

    The final way to prevent accidents on your trip is to observe safe driving habits. Reduce distractions and ask a passenger to take care of the maps, music, or snacks. Always wear a seat belt and follow the rules of the road. Stop for gas before you get too low and take stops to stretch and move around to reduce soreness or strain from the drive. Keep your speeds low and allow plenty of space when navigating unfamiliar highways. If driving at night, in poor weather, or in traffic, be sure to reduce your speed as well. 

    Vacations should always be worry-free, and a little preparation can help keep yours that way. Keep your trip safe and fun by following these tips to prevent car accidents. If you are injured, however, an experienced Miami personal injury attorney can help you fight for your right to compensation. 

    At Kaire & Heffernan, we hope that your summer trips are always safe and injury-free. If you or a loved one is involved in an accident, you can trust that our Miami personal injury attorneys will be there for you. We can help you devise a strategic plan to recover the damages you deserve, and our caring team offers personalized client service to suit your needs

Miami Motorcycle Accident Lawyer

August 7, 2020 in Car Accidents /by Mark Kaire

Florida holds the dubious distinction of being the state with the highest number of motorcycle fatalities in the country.  Every year more than 8000 motorcyclists are injured in accidents in the state. 

A motorcycle rider injured in an accident must first seek proper medical treatment and then enlist the services of an experienced motorcycle accident lawyer in Miami to help him or her overcome the legal hurdles that he or she might face following a crash.  An experienced Miami Motorcycle Accident Lawyer guides a victim through the following stages in a motorcycle accident case.:- 

STAGES IN A MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT CASE. 

  • INVESTIGATION. 

An experienced Florida Motorcycle Accident Attorney will conduct an in depth investigation to determine whether the facts and circumstances genuinely support a claim for damages.  The lawyer will seek to address the following questions:- 

  1. Which of the party/parties were at fault. 

    Determining who was at fault can be very difficult.  The insurance company of the opposing party will attempt to transfer the blame on the victim for causing or contributing to the accident. 

  2. Were injuries sustained, and if so, were they caused by the accident? 

    It is vital to document injuries caused by the accident.  Injuries are documented by collecting and studying medical records, medical bills, doctor’s evaluation etc. 

  3. Is there insurance available to provide adequate compensation? 

    A Motorcycle Accident Lawyer will seek to identify all potential sources of compensation for a accident victim.  The lawyer will evaluate insurance coverage of the at fault parties and ascertain other possible sources of insurances available to the victim such as personal injury protection and health insurance. 

  • SENDING DEMAND LETTER WITH COMPILATION OF DOCUMENTS TO INSURANCE COMPANY. 

    The lawyer sends a demand letter to the insurance company to notify of the victim’s claims.  A demand letter is drafted professionally and precisely by the lawyer and is supported by necessary documents which contain:- 

    1. A summarized list of all the facts and information regarding victim’s claim. 
    2. Victim’s rationale explaining the liability of the at fault party. 
    3. Detailed description regarding the medical treatment undergone by the victim and the expenses incurred. 
    4. Detailed description of all income lost. 
    5. Detailed description of all types of damages and losses sustained. 
    6. A demand for a compensation amount to resolve the claim. 
  • NEGOTIATIONS. 

    After intensely scrutinizing the claim made by the victim in the demand letter, the insurance company may:- 

    • ACCEPT DEMAND. 

      In this  scenario,  insurance company accepts the demand and agrees to the compensation claimed in the demand letter.  Such a thing rarely happens as Insurance companies always indulge in negotiations to bring down the claim made by the victim. 

    • COUNTER OFFER MADE BY THE INSURANCE COMPANY. 

      The insurance company offers the victim an amount less than what he or she had asked for in the demand letter.  The victim decides to accept such an offer, or continue negotiations or file a lawsuit after consulting his lawyer. 

    • INSURANCE COMPANY DENIES CLAIM. 

      The insurance company may deny the claim outright and refuse to pay. 

  • LAWSUIT. 

    In the event of a victim rejecting the offer of the insurance company or the insurance company denying the claim of the victim outright, the victim through his lawyer files a lawsuit. 

  • MEDIATION. 

    In Florida, all accident cases are ordered to mediation by the presiding Judge assigned to conduct the trial.  In mediation, a neutral mediator, usually a retired Judge or a lawyer, assists the parties to amicably settle issues and differences in the case.  

    The mediator helps the parties to reach a mutually agreeable solution.  A mediator generally does not render a decision.  If parties reach a settlement, insurance company will transfer the agreed upon amount to the victim who in turn will dismiss the lawsuit. 

    If parties are unable to reach a settlement,  the case will go to trial. 

  • TRIAL. 

    The case will be conducted before a jury and a judge .   

    Phases of a trial are as follows:- 

    • Jury selection. 
    • Opening statements. 
    • Witness testimony. 
    • Closing arguments. 
    • Instructing the jury. 
    • Deliberations and 
    • Verdict. 

      A jury verdict is unpredictable and this reason motivates parties to settle a case and not leave the outcome in the hands of a jury. 

Lawsuits are an expensive proposition and litigating parties face mounting legal costs. 

A party unhappy with a verdict can seek to Appeal if there is sufficient legal basis for it. 

Florida requires motorcycle riders to take a basic rider course and to get a proper license, or an endorsement added to their existing driver’s license. 

A 2018 report from the National Transportation Safety Board found that 64% of motorcycle related accidents were caused due to a negligent act of another vehicle driver and not due to the fault of a motorcycle rider. 

Negligence is defined as “Failure to take reasonable care to avoid causing injury or loss to another person.”  

To prove negligence, the plaintiff (the injured party) must establish the following four main elements:- 

  • The defendant (the accused party) owed the plaintiff a reasonable duty of care.   

All motorists such as car drivers, truck drivers and motorcycle riders owe a duty of care towards other riders, drivers, passengers, pedestrians and others on the roadways. 

  • The Defendant breached his or her duty of care. 

    The breach of care by the defendant is the crux of the personal injury law.  It is the plaintiff’s burden of proof to convince the judge or jury that there was a breach of care committed by the defendant. 

  • The breach of duty by the Defendant caused the accident. 

    It is not enough to show that the Defendant was negligent, careless or reckless, it has to be established by a preponderance of the evidence that his or her act of negligence was the main cause of the car crash. 

  • The accident caused compensable damages. 

The plaintiff has to establish that he or she suffered damages due to the breach of duty by the Defendant.  Damages may include economic damages, pain and suffering, mental anguish, emotional distress, lost wages, loss of quality of life and/or property damage.  

COMMON CAUSES OF MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENTS/CRASHES: 

 Some major factors that contribute to motorcycle accidents are:- 

  • Inexperienced riders. 
  • Riding under influence of drugs or alcohol. 
  • Distractions (Texting, eating or talking on a cellphone.). 
  • Speeding. 
  • Failure to obey traffic rules. 
  • Tailgating. 
  •  Lane splitting. 
  • Poor weather and road conditions. 
  • Failing to wear or improper use of protective gear (helmets, leather clothing). 

TYPES OF INJURIES SUSTAINED IN MOTORCYCLE COLLISIONS/ CRASHES. 

Motorcycle accident injuries vary from person to person, and from crash to crash.  Most common motorcycle accident injuries are :- 

  • Broken bones and Fractures.
  • Injuries to the chest.
  • Leg and knee injuries.
  • Facial damage.
  • Spinal injuries/ paralysis.
  • Scarring.
  • Lacerations.
  • Traumatic brain injuries.
  • Permanent disability.
  • Wrongful death.

STATUTE OF LIMITATION FOR FILING A MOTOR CYCLE ACCIDENT CASE IN FLORIDA 

There are specific time limits, restrictions and rules for filing a accident claim.  An experienced motorcycle accident lawyer ensures that a victim fully understands the Federal, State and Local laws that might apply to his or her case.  Florida statute of Limitations for motorcycle accidents is four years after the accident occurred. In general terms, residents of Florida have four years from the date of the accident to initiate a civil lawsuit.  

It is in the best interests of the plaintiff to enlist the services of an experienced Miami motorcycle accident lawyer.  Sufficient time is necessary to collect evidence to establish the defendant’s liability.  Numerous records have to be collected and opinion of experts has to be sought.  

Motorcycle accident cases must be filed at the earliest as these cases rely heavily on witness statements.  After a few weeks, witnesses tend to forget details about the accident.  

COMPENSATION FOR VICTIM OF A MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT IN  MIAMI. 

Our Miami motorcycle accident lawyers seek to get maximum compensation for the victim of a motorcycle accident and help him or her explore other options and alternative ways to seek additional compensation for injuries sustained. 

Several states will not allow a person to recover damages if he or she contributed to, or is more than 50% responsible for his or her own injuries.  Florida, being a Comparative Fault State,  allows a person to recover damages irrespective of his or her degree of fault.  A Court will apportion fault among the parties, and the plaintiff is entitled to recover damages to the extent, he or she is not responsible for causing his or her injuries.  In Florida, the median hospital bill for a injured motorcyclists is approximately $47,000. 

Our Miami motorcycle Accident lawyers help victims recover compensatory damages mentioned below:- 

ECONOMIC DAMAGES. 

  • Medical Bills. 
  • Lost Wages. 
  • Lost earning capacity. 
  • Property damage. 
  • Estimated future medical expenses. 
  • Out of pocket expenditure. 

NON-ECONOMIC DAMAGES. 

  • Pain and suffering.
  • Mental anguish.
  • Loss of companionship.
  • Emotional distress.
  • Loss of enjoyment of life.

Punitive damages can be sought too.  For a case to qualify for punitive damages, the victim will have to prove that the at fault party’s conduct was malicious, wilful and reckless.  

DETERMINATION OF FAULT IN A FLORIDA MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT. 

Florida is a no fault state, which means that in the event of an accident, riders have to turn to their own vehicle insurance for coverage.  It means each person’s insurance company pays for their own client’s accident expenses.  Who was responsible for the accident is not taken into consideration.

Miami Workers Compensation Overview

July 28, 2020 in Workers Compensation /by Mark Kaire

The Workers’ Compensation laws are designed to provide payment of wage loss benefits, medical cost coverage and other benefits for those employees who have been injured at work. The two main purposes of Workers’ compensation laws are to ensure employees receive prompt payment of benefits from workplace injuries and to prevent lawsuits against employers when employees are injured.

Workers’ Compensation laws are in place to make the employer strictly liable for injuries sustained in course of employment.  The injury must arise in course and scope of employment for a valid claim, and an employer – employee relation must exist.

If you or any of your loved ones has been injured in a workplace accident, it is important to know how the process of Workers’ Compensation works from the moment an employee is injured. Given below are the various stages in a workers’ compensation claim:

  • SEEK MEDICAL TREATMENT.  

The number one priority should always be the health of the person injured in a workplace accident. Employee should seek treatment from a health care provider authorized by his employer and employer’s Workers’ Compensation insurers (or Carriers).  If it’s an emergency, injured employee should seek treatment at the nearest clinic or hospital.

  • REPORT THE INJURY TO EMPLOYER.

    It is important for the injured employee to report the injury to his or her employer within 30 days of knowing that he or she suffered a work-related injury. Failure to duly report can result in denial of benefits.  The entire process is set into motion once the injury is reported.

     

  • EMPLOYER REPORTS INJURY TO HIS INSURANCE COMPANY (CARRIER).

    The employer has to report of the injury sustained by the employee to its insurance company within seven days after receiving employee’s report.  This is called the first report of Injury or illness, or accident report.

     

  • INSURANCE COMPANY (CARRIER) SENDS BROCURE OR PACKET TO THE INJURED EMPLOYEE.

    The insurance company, within three days of receiving the first report of injury sends accident report to the injured employee along with information about his or her rights.

     

  • INSURANCE COMPANY (CARRIER) ACCEPTS CLAIM.

    The insurance company should issue the first benefit check within 21 days after the injury is reported.  The amount of compensation depends on whether the employee is entitled to temporary total disability (TT) or temporary partial disability (TP) benefits. 

    The employee should continue to receive checks bi-weekly until he or she returns to work or until 104 weeks have passed. If employee reaches Maximum Medical Improvement (MMI), he or she must receive a permanent impairment rating.

     

  • INSURANCE COMPANY (CARRIER) DENIES CLAIM.

    The Insurance company must notify the employee of its decision to deny benefits within 120 days of the injury being reported. 

    The employee can make efforts to resolve with the insurance company.

     

  • EMPLOYEE FILES PETITION FOR WORKERS’ COMPENSATION BENEFITS.

The employee can enlist the services of a qualified and competent Miami Workers’ compensation lawyer who possesses in depth knowledge and experience to assist and guide the employee to navigate through complex and confusing workers’ compensation laws. 

COMMON TYPES OF WORKPLACE ACCIDENTS.

 Some common types of workplace accidents are:-

  • Electrocutions.
  • Falls from heights.
  • Construction site accidents.
  • Crane accidents.
  • Warehouse accidents.
  • Falling objects.
  • Power tool accidents.
  • Vehicle accidents.

TYPES OF INJURIES SUSTAINED IN WORKPLACE ACCIDENTS.

Most common workplace accident injuries are :-

  • Head Injuries.
  • Broken Bones and Fractures.
  • Burn injuries.
  • Spinal Cord damage.
  • Sprains and bruises.
  • Dislocations.
  • Loss of limb and Amputations.
  • Permanent Partial Disability.
  • Permanent Total Disability.
  • Wrongful Death.
  • Lower Back Injuries
  • Neck Injuries

STATUTE OF LIMITATION FOR FILING A WORKERS’ COMPENSATION PETITION FOR BENEFITS IN FLORIDA

There are certain specific time limits, restrictions and rules for filing a workers’ compensation petition for benefits.  An experienced Miami Workers’ compensation lawyer ensures that you fully understand the Federal, State and Local laws that might apply to your case.  Florida statute of Limitations for workers’ compensation is two years after the accident occurred. In general terms, residents of Florida have two years to file a petition for benefits from the date of the accident and one year after the last date of received benefits.

THIRD PARTY NEGLIGENCE.

In addition to Workers’ compensation, a workplace injury victim is entitled to pursue a legal claim against a negligent third party responsible for his or her injuries. In Florida, a competent Miami Workers’ Compensation Lawyer will explore whether a third party’s negligence contributed to a worker’s injury or illness.

If the negligence of a property owner, product manufacturer, an onsite vendor or a subcontractor contributed to a worker’s occupational injury, a third party negligence claim could result in additional compensation for the injured worker.

Workers’ Compensation benefits are limited and may not provide enough money necessary for recovery from severe injuries.  A third party negligence claim can seek compensation for:-

  • Medical Expenses.
  • Property damage.
  • Pain and suffering.
  • Wrongful death.

COMPENSATION FOR VICTIM OF A WORKPLACE ACCIDENT IN  MIAMI.

Our Miami Workers’ Compensation lawyers represent the interests of the injured workers at hearings, trials, mediations, arbitrations, proceedings and also negotiate settlements on their behalf.

Workers’ compensation pays for all medical care that is necessary to treat a work-related injury or illness.  The treatment should be authorized by the insurance company and prescribed by a doctor of the choice of the insurer (carrier).  The injured worker is entitled to receive cost of travelling to and from doctors’ appointments and to get prescribed medicines.

In most cases, a benefits check accruing to a injured worker is paid bi-weekly and is two-third (66.7%) of average weekly wage.  If an employee is injured at work, various costs are incurred which are covered by Workers’ Compensation.  These costs are:

  • Hospital or other ongoing medical bills.
  • Lost wages.
  • Ambulance transportation.
  • Disability payments.

If an employee dies as a result of a work-related accident within one year from the date of the accident or within five years of continuous disability, the family of the deceased employee could be entitled to:

  • Up to $7,500 to cover funeral expenses.
  • Education benefits to surviving spouse.
  • Up to $150,000 in compensation to dependents of the deceased.

Miami Slip and Fall Lawyers

July 20, 2020 in Personal Injury /by Mark Kaire

Over one million people suffer significant injuries from slip and fall accidents in the United States.  These injuries can alter the injured person’s entire life, can cause loss of employment, loss of mobility, enormous medical bills as well as permanent pain and suffering.

Only automobile accidents rank above slip and fall accidents as causes of accidental deaths in the Country.  Businesses have a legal obligation to make sure their premises are free from harm and in a reasonably safe condition for customers and guests.

If a person is injured or seriously hurt after slipping, tripping or falling on someone else’s property because of the owner’s negligence, the injured person is entitled to receive compensation for medical bills, time he or she was off work and even for pain and suffering.

If you or any of your loved ones has been in a slip and fall accident, it is important to remember and follow these steps immediately following the unfortunate incident:-

  • SEEK MEDICAL TREATMENT.  

The number one priority should always be the health of the person involved in a slip and fall accident.  It is important not only to get urgent treatment, but also to get injuries evaluated and documented.  In future lawsuits, medical records are valuable evidence.

  • REPORT THE ACCIDENT.

    It is important to report the accident irrespective of where it occurred.  Whether in a store, a parking lot, on a sidewalk or even if its at the residence of a friend, it is necessary to report the incident to the manager, owner or landlord.  Seek written report that details the unfortunate incident. 

  • PROPER DOCUMENTATION.

    It is important to collect names, addresses, phone numbers and email addresses of all potential witnesses. These witnesses offer valuable insight into how the Victim fell, causes of the accident, the nature of injuries suffered.  Photographs and videos are pursuasive evidence of the conditions that may be prevailing at the time of the accident.  Injured parties should take photographs of his injuries too. It is essential to put away the shoes and clothes that were worn by the injured person in safe storage.

     

  • MAINTAIN CALM AND COMMUNICATION SHOULD BE LIMITED.

    The Injured person should refrain from posting pictures or videos of the accident on social media.  He or she should refuse to give statements to insurance companies, instead should hire an experienced Miami slip and fall lawyer and let the lawyer deal with them.  The injured person should not blame anyone and also shouldn’t take blame for the accident.  Admitting any part of the blame upfront can undermine a future lawsuit.

  • CALL EXPERIENCED SLIP AND FALL ATTORNEYS IN MIAMI.

Slip and fall accident cases are complex and hard to prove.  Our qualified and experienced Attorneys possess in depth knowledge and experience to assist a victim and his family to navigate through complex and confusing slip and fall accident laws.   Our team relentlessly fights to secure maximum compensation through verdicts and settlements for victims of slip and fall accidents in Miami and all across Florida.

COMMON CAUSES OF SLIPS AND FALLS:-

 Some major factors that contribute to slips and falls are:-

  • Wet, Icy or Waxed floors.
  • Inadequate Lighting.
  • Sidewalk defects.
  • Holes in floors or pavements.
  • Warning Signs not posted on known hazards or construction areas.
  • Spilled substances on floors.
  • Uneven floors.
  • Loose steps and hand rails.
  • Elevators and Escalators.

TYPES OF INJURIES SUSTAINED IN SLIP AND FALLS.

STATUTE OF LIMITATION FOR FILING A SLIP AND FALL ACCIDENT CASE IN FLORIDA

There are specific time limits, restrictions and rules for filing a Slip and Fall accident claim.  An experienced Florida Slip and Fall Accident lawyer ensures that you fully understand the Federal, State and Local laws that might apply to your case.  Florida statute of Limitations for slip and fall accidents is four years after the accident occurred. In general terms, residents of Florida have four years from the date of the slip and fall accident to initiate a civil lawsuit.

It is in the best interests of the plaintiff to enlist the services of an experienced slip and fall accident lawyer without any delay.  Sufficient time is necessary to collect evidence to establish the defendant’s liability.

A Florida slip and fall accident case always hinges on whether the property owner knew or should have known of the negligent condition.   Various witnesses have to be traced and interviewed.  Numerous records have to be collected and opinion of experts has to be sought.  Having the option of going to Court always gives an added leverage during settlement talks.

COMPARATIVE NEGLIGENCE.

In Florida, the property owner is bound to argue that the victim should bear some amount of blame for the accident. Florida has a “ Pure Comparative Negligence “ rule.   Under this rule any damages awarded to a plaintiff will be reduced according to the percentage of his or her fault in the accident.

Proof of plaintiff negligence will not bar a claim entirely,  but it could reduce the amount of overall compensation awarded.  It is the responsibility of the defendant to prove Comparative Negligence.  The property owner must prove that the plaintiff did not demonstrate reasonable care and he or she was responsible for injuries sustained.  Some common arguments put forward by defendants in slip and fall accident cases to establish Comparative Negligence are:-

  • Victim was on a part of property that he or she had no right to be on.
  • Victim was not paying sufficient attention.
  • Victim ignored warning signs about conditions.
  • Victim did not wear appropriate footwear.
  • Condition was open and obvious.

COMPENSATION FOR VICTIM OF A SLIP AND FALL ACCIDENT IN  MIAMI.

Miami Car Accident Lawyer

July 16, 2020 in Car Accidents /by Mark Kaire

As our economy and schools reopen, we begin to see the traffic we are accustomed to. Thus, it is a good time to remember that Driving is a privilege, not a right.  Every driver has a legal obligation to act in a manner prescribed by law.  Failure to do so can result in an accident.

According to the Florida Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles Department, an estimated 200,000 accidents are recorded in Florida every year.  Car accidents due to negligence are one of the greatest causes of deaths and serious injuries in Miami and throughout Florida.

Negligence is defined as “Failure to take reasonable care to avoid causing injury or loss to another person.”

To prove negligence, the plaintiff (the injured party) must establish the following four main elements:-

  • The defendant (the accused party) owes the plaintiff a reasonable duty of care.  

All drivers owe a duty of care towards other drivers, passengers, pedestrians and others on the roadway when they get behind the wheel of a vehicle.

  • The Defendant breached his or her duty of care.

    The breach of care by the defendant is the crux of the personal injury law.  It is the plaintiff’s burden of proof to convince the judge or jury that there was a breach of care committed by the defendant.

     

  • The breach of duty by the Defendant caused the accident.

    It is not enough to show that the Defendant was negligent, careless or reckless, it has to be established by a preponderance of the evidence that his or her act of negligence was the main cause of the car crash.

     

  • The accident caused compensable damages.

    The plaintiff has to establish that he or she suffered damages due to the breach of duty by the Defendant.  Damages may include physical injury, pain and injury, mental anguish, emotional distress, lost wages, loss of quality of life and/or property damage.

Our qualified and experienced Attorneys possess in depth knowledge and experience to assist a victim and his family to navigate through complex accident laws.   Our team relentlessly fights to secure maximum compensation through verdicts and settlements for victims of car accidents in Miami and all across Florida.

Several states will not allow a person to recover damages if he or she contributed to, or is more than 50% responsible for his or her own injuries.  Florida, being a Comparative Fault State,  allows a person to recover damages irrespective of his or her degree of fault.  A Court will apportion fault among the parties, and the  plaintiff is entitled to recover damages to the extent, he or she is not responsible for causing his or her injuries.
