At Kaire & Heffernan, our practice is dedicated to helping injury victims pursue compensation for the negligence of others. Attorney Mark Kaire opened The Law Office of Mark Kaire in 1997, and in 2014 added partner David Heffernan to become Kaire & Heffernan. Since then, both Mark Kaire and David Heffernan have become significant players in Miami’s legal scene.
Our success is grounded in the dedication we show to our clients. We have a team of dedicated staff on hand to examine your case from every angle and make sure we maximize your chances of success. Unlike at larger firms, your case will not be passed off to a young associate down the hall. Each attorney is very attentive and responds to all phone calls and questions by the end of each day. As a client, you will receive each attorney’s personal cellphone number, and they will be available to respond to emergencies 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

While anyone can file personal injury claims on their own, it is not necessarily wise to do so. Instead, contact our Miami attorneys at Kaire & Heffernan. With decades of experience, our lawyers can protect your rights and provide you with experienced legal counsel and representation in court. Below are two of the most important reasons why we are the right choice to represent you:
Our firm has represented thousands of clients in similar injury cases. We have significant legal skills and an understanding of the law in all types of accidents, including slip-and-falls, medical malpractice cases, motorcycle accidents, car crashes, cruise ship accidents and more. As a result, we are skilled in handling personal injury cases and know how to avoid some of the typical mistakes individuals make. We also have a great understanding of the state’s legal system and know which rules and procedures must be followed.
Our personal injury lawyers are seasoned in the art of negotiating with insurance companies. Without legal representation, you risk accepting an unfavorable settlement offer from the insurance firm of the opposing side. If you’re involved in a car accident, for example, then the other driver will probably have a large insurance firm on their side with a team of lawyers to protect their interests. It can be nearly impossible for injury victims to recoup medical expenses, lost wages and other damages when up against the opposition alone.

Hospitals and insurance companies never have your best interests in mind. If they’ve made you a settlement offer, chances are good that it’s for far less than you’re really owed. Unfortunately, most insurers (and other corporate defendants) will refuse to act fairly and faithfully until they’re facing a lawsuit with an aggressive attorney on the other side.
Insurance companies know who we are. They know we stand up for our clients and that we’re fully prepared to go to trial if necessary. Accordingly, we’re often able to negotiate an out-of-court settlement in your favor. But if the other side refuses to play fairly, we’ll take it to the judge.
Insurance companies and other “big players” already have plenty of power. “The little guys” need an advocate too. Our personal injury attorneys in Miami are that advocate. We fight giants.
Accidents and resulting injuries are common, but that doesn’t make them less painful or damaging for a victim. If you or a loved one has been injured, it’s important to protect your rights through a personal injury claim with a Miami lawyer. You can obtain compensation for your injuries and related expenses by proving four elements of negligence:
For injuries suffered on the job and claims related to workers’ compensation, it is not necessary to demonstrate that the other party was at fault.
Automobile accidents are an exception to personal injury laws in Florida, which is a “no-fault” state. This means that your auto insurance policy pays for your injuries and property damage regardless of who was at fault in the accident. However, you still may file a personal injury claim if you sustained serious injuries in a car accident, including significant, permanent injuries, scarring or disfigurement.
Have you been the victim of a serious personal injury caused by someone’s negligence? Has a family member or loved one suffered a wrongful death due to someone else’s negligence? You’ll want a seasoned Miami personal injury lawyer to help fight for your rights and get you fair compensation.
