Why You Need a Personal Injury Lawyer

For those who have suffered injury from misconduct and negligence by others, in many instances it is their first experience with the legal system. Legal claims, litigation, and trial can be confusing, daunting, and overwhelming.

Insurance companies and businesses defend claims aggressively, aiming to avoid liability and underpay. With profits in mind, these companies generally try to take advantage of victims who are typically less familiar with the personal injury claims process and lack the resources to pursue claims on their own. They employ teams of investigators and claims handlers for the sole purpose of gaining a competitive advantage. For these reasons, hiring a personal injury attorney after having suffered harm from someone else’s negligence is important to help you determine your objectives, navigate the complexities of the legal system, and obtain full and fair compensation for your losses.

But, you do not need just any law firm.. you need the right law firm. The right law firm is one that has the experience, resources, and ability to handle your case and pursue your objectives. Each case involves specific incidents, with specific forms of negligence and liability, resulting in specific and unique injuries, harm, and loss.

How Hersh Kirtman Injury Law Can Help

The attorneys at Hersh Kirtman Injury Law have dedicated their careers to help level the playing field during your time of need.

All the while, Hersh Kirtman Injury Law works tirelessly to make sure personal injury victims understand the legal process and receive the personal attention they deserve to ensure their needs are met.

Armed with the necessary knowledge, skill, and experience, and most importantly an understanding of your goals, we can advise you of the best path forward.

Obtaining justice for our clients, whether through an out of court settlement, litigation, or trial, requires know how, persistence, and determination. In your time of need, you should focus on your health and welfare. Let your attorneys handle the legal processes and pursue the claims necessary to obtain the compensation you deserve. Unlike insurance companies and defendant corporations, who often owe duties to shareholders to maximize profits, we at Hersh Kirtman Injury Law have a single obligation: to guide, protect, and fight for you, our client. Here are some of the ways having Hersh Kirtman Injury Law on your side can prove vital to the success of your claim.

• Proving Liability. Liability is denied in most cases and where liability is acknowledged the defense typically also attempts to put liability on you or others, which limits their responsibility. Under Florida’s comparative fault laws, any amount of negligence attributed to you or others will reduce the amount the defendant has to pay. Not only is it your burden to prove your case, you may have to defend against arguments that you were the one to blame. We work tirelessly to gather the necessary evidence and prove the case, including defending against any argument that you shared in the fault.

• Proving Damages. Insurance companies and defendant corporations will also attack damages. They will say that the injury was not caused by the accident, that you were not as badly hurt as you say, or that your injury existed before the accident. We work with you to make sure we understand the totality of the harm you suffered, to be able to tell your story, and to have the evidence, including medical expert testimony, to demonstrate the full extent of your injury and your needs.

• Settlement. Some insurance companies and defendant corporations will attempt to settle claims quickly, before the victim had a chance to speak to an attorney or appreciate the full harm they have suffered. This generally results in underpayment. We help you understand the full and fair value of your case and guide you through the negotiation and settlement process. Ultimately, our primary goal is help you achieve your objectives. You need someone on your side who represents injury victims every day. People who settle with insurance companies by themselves almost always recover less than those represented by a lawyer.

• Litigate. If your case can’t be settled for a fair amount, it might be necessary to file a lawsuit. The threat of litigation is often enough to get an insurance company to settle to avoid spending money defending the claim and the risk of a jury awarding the injured party more money than the insurance company was willing to offer. But insurance companies only face this risk when they are dealing with attorneys ready, willing and able to file a lawsuit and proceed through trial if need be. Lots of lawyers go out of their way to avoid trials because they lack the confidence, skills, experience or resources to litigate. Not us. Our track record of success in the courtroom shows insurers and corporations that we are ready to spend the time and money necessary to achieve the best result possible for our clients, whether by a settlement or a jury verdict.
