Fighting Vigorously For Injury Victims In Indian River Estates

Aside from the amazing amenities offered by the retirement community, residents of Indian River Estates have their choice of nearby attractions to visit.

Regardless of the number of services a community offers or how closely linked it is to surrounding communities, no area is completely without its tragedies. Indian River Estates is no exception. Unfortunately, negligence is everywhere and we put ourselves at risk each time we step out of our front doors. 

Statistics make this even more clear. In 2019, more than 20 people lost their lives to roadway accidents in Indian River County. Imagine the number of lives that were impacted — hundreds, thousands? Even a single life altered due to another’s negligence is a life too many. At Hoskins, Turco, Lloyd & Lloyd, we fight for these victims and their families, seeking compensation for what they are owed.

Negligence Must Be Proven After a Personal Injury

If you were involved in a vehicle collision, boating accident, or similar incident, you have every right to file a claim seeking damages. The question is: does your claim have a high chance of success? It’s not enough to show an insurance company or court that you were hurt in an accident. You and your attorney will have to prove several things in order to win an award. These elements are:

1. You were indeed involved in an accident.
2. You suffered injuries as a direct result of the accident.
3. You suffered monetary damage as a direct result of those injuries.
4. Someone’s negligence or reckless behavior led to the accident.

When these four elements are present, you have what it takes for a case to have a high chance of success. Your lawyer will be able to calculate all damages in full and negotiate with an insurance company on your behalf to seek an appropriate settlement. When necessary, we are willing to take your case in front of a judge and jury to seek the compensation you need.

Comparative Negligence In Florida

Florida is a state that follows the comparative negligence rule. In other words, if you are found to be partially at fault for your injury accident, your final award will be reduced. But by how much? The exact number will vary, but you can expect your award to be reduced by the percentage that you were found negligent. In other words, if you are awarded $100,000 and found to be 25% negligent, your final award will be $75,000. 

Your attorney can review the finer details of this legal rule with you. They can also help you conclusively establish who was truly at fault for your accident. Injury victims often face allegations that they contributed to their own accident when in reality this is not the case. Working with an Indian River Estates personal injury lawyer allows you to work to refute common defenses insurers and at-fault parties use to reduce their liability.
