## Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How much does it cost to hire a personal injury lawyer in Boca Raton?
A: Leifer and Ramirez handles personal injury cases on a contingency fee basis. There are no upfront fees and no costs charged to you unless the firm recovers money on your behalf. The fee is a percentage of the recovery, agreed upon before the firm begins work on your case.

Q: How long will my personal injury case take to resolve?
A: It depends heavily on the severity of your injuries, the complexity of liability, and whether the case settles or goes to trial. Cases involving clear liability and defined injuries may resolve within several months. Cases involving disputed liability, catastrophic injuries, or multiple defendants can take one to three years or longer. The firm will not push you toward a quick settlement that undervalues your claim simply to close the file.

Q: What if the insurance company already offered me a settlement?
A: Early settlement offers from insurance companies are almost always lower than what the claim is actually worth. Insurers present early offers before you have finished medical treatment, which means the full extent of your future losses is not yet known. Accepting an early offer typically releases all future claims arising from the incident. Before accepting anything, consult with a Boca Raton personal injury attorney to have the offer evaluated against the full scope of your damages.

Q: What if I was partly at fault for the accident?
A: Florida's modified comparative negligence rules allow you to pursue a claim even if you bear some responsibility for the accident, provided you are not found to be more than 50 percent at fault. Your recoverable damages would be reduced by the percentage of fault attributed to you. An attorney can work to ensure that your share of fault is not overstated by the opposing party or their insurer.

Q: Can I still file a claim if the at-fault driver was uninsured?
A: Yes. Florida allows uninsured motorist coverage claims under your own policy if the at-fault driver lacks sufficient coverage. Additionally, there may be other parties, such as an employer if the driver was working, a vehicle owner, or a third party responsible for a hazardous road condition, who bear liability independent of the driver's coverage. A thorough investigation of all potential responsible parties is part of what the firm does before advising on the value of your claim.

Q: What happens if my injury gets worse after I settle?
A: Once you sign a settlement release, you generally cannot return to seek additional compensation from the same parties, even if your condition worsens. This is one reason why settling before reaching maximum medical improvement is risky. An attorney will advise you on the appropriate time in your recovery process to evaluate settlement, and will project future medical needs into the damages calculation rather than limiting it to costs incurred to date.

Q: Are nursing home injury cases handled differently than other personal injury claims?
A: Nursing home abuse and neglect claims in Florida involve a specific statutory framework that governs residents' rights and facility obligations. These cases often require review of care plans, staffing records, medication administration logs, and facility inspection reports from state regulators. The procedural requirements can differ from standard negligence claims, and the damages may include categories specific to elder abuse law in addition to standard personal injury damages.

Q: Can I bring a medical malpractice claim if a hospital, not just a doctor, made an error?
A: Yes. Hospitals can be held vicariously liable for the negligence of employed physicians and staff, and directly liable for systemic failures such as inadequate supervision, credentialing failures, or deficient policies and procedures. Medical malpractice cases in Florida involve specific pre-suit investigation and notice requirements before a complaint can be filed, so early consultation with a Florida personal injury attorney handling malpractice matters is particularly important.

Q: Is a police report required to file a personal injury claim?
A: A police report is not legally required to file a civil personal injury claim, but it is valuable evidence that documents the incident, identifies the parties, and sometimes includes a preliminary determination of fault. For accidents that were not reported to law enforcement at the scene, other forms of documentation, including witness statements, surveillance footage, and photographs, become more important in establishing what happened.

Q: What should I do if the property where I was injured asks me to sign an incident report before I leave?
A: You may report that an incident occurred, but be cautious about signing any document that contains a characterization of what happened or your current condition. Statements made immediately after a fall or accident, before you have been evaluated by a physician, can be used to dispute the severity of your injuries later. Note that you requested and were or were not given a copy of the report, and contact an injury attorney in Boca Raton before providing any further statements to the property ...

Q: Is it too late to pursue a Hurricane Irma insurance claim in Florida?
A: Whether any avenue remains open depends on the specific legal theory and the timeline of your individual claim. Florida law governing insurance disputes involves multiple deadlines that interact in ways that require careful analysis. Some policyholders who believe their claims are closed still have options depending on how and when their claim was handled. A legal review of your specific situation is the only reliable way to determine what, if anything, remains available.

Q: My insurer paid something but I think it wasn't enough. Can I still dispute the amount?
A: Receiving a partial payment does not necessarily close your claim or prevent you from pursuing the remaining disputed amount. Whether you can still challenge the valuation depends on your policy language, whether you signed any release documents, and the procedural history of your claim. Many policyholders who accepted partial payments without signing broad releases retained the right to pursue additional amounts through appraisal or legal action.

Q: What is the insurance appraisal process and how does it apply to an Irma claim?
A: Most Florida homeowner and commercial property policies include an appraisal clause that allows either party to invoke a structured valuation process when they disagree on the amount of a loss. Each party selects a licensed appraiser, those appraisers attempt to agree on the loss amount, and if they cannot agree they jointly select an umpire whose decision on any disputed item is binding. This process can result in substantially higher payments than the insurer's original estimate, and it is ...

Q: My Irma claim was denied for a hurricane deductible reason. What does that mean?
A: Florida homeowner policies typically carry a separate hurricane deductible, often expressed as a percentage of the insured value of the property rather than a flat dollar amount. If your estimated loss did not exceed that deductible, the insurer could deny payment while still acknowledging the damage occurred. However, insurers have sometimes applied deductible calculations incorrectly or used undervalued property assessments that artificially lowered the payout. If the math on your deductibl...

Q: What if my property was in a flood zone and I had both homeowner and NFIP flood insurance?
A: When a property has both homeowner coverage and a National Flood Insurance Program policy, the critical issue after a hurricane is correctly allocating damage between wind-caused losses covered under the homeowner policy and flood-caused losses covered under the NFIP policy. Insurers handling the homeowner side sometimes attributed damage to flood in order to shift responsibility to the federal program, while NFIP adjusters did the same in reverse. If your losses fell into a gap between these...

Q: Does bad faith law apply to Hurricane Irma insurance disputes?
A: Florida has statutory provisions that address an insurer's obligation to handle claims in good faith and with reasonable promptness. If an insurer failed to properly investigate your Irma claim, unreasonably delayed payment, or misrepresented your policy terms to reduce a payout, those actions may support a bad faith claim in addition to the underlying breach of contract claim. Bad faith actions carry separate potential damages beyond the base claim value. Whether those provisions apply to yo...

Q: I was renting when Irma hit and my belongings were destroyed. Do I have a claim?
A: Renters who had renters insurance at the time of Irma may have coverage for personal property losses and additional living expenses if they were displaced. The same disputes that arose with homeowner claims, underpayment, denial based on policy exclusions, and disputes over documented value, also arose with renters insurance claims. If your renters insurance claim was denied or underpaid and you believe the insurer's position was incorrect, those disputes are also reviewable.

Q: My insurer sent a low estimate. Does that mean I have to hire my own contractor to prove the difference?
A: Independent contractor estimates are some of the most important evidence in a disputed insurance claim. If your insurer's internal estimate was based on a contractor or estimating software that undervalued the cost of materials and labor in your area, a competing estimate from a licensed contractor with experience in the local market can directly undercut the insurer's position. In legal proceedings or appraisal, documented contractor estimates carry significant weight. Your attorney can help...

Q: Can a commercial property owner pursue a Hurricane Irma claim differently than an individual homeowner?
A: Commercial property policies often have different terms, higher coverage limits, and distinct provisions related to business interruption, extra expense, and contingent business interruption coverage that do not appear in homeowner policies. Commercial policyholders also frequently dealt with more complex adjusting processes and had greater exposure when insurers underpaid. The legal analysis of a commercial Irma claim involves both the property damage component and any income-related coverag...

Q: What happens if my insurer argues the damage was pre-existing and not caused by Irma?
A: Pre-existing condition defenses are a common tactic insurers use to reduce or eliminate hurricane claim payments. Under Florida law, an insurer asserting a pre-existing damage exclusion or a wear-and-tear exclusion bears certain burdens related to that position. Independent forensic evaluations, contractor reports, and photographic evidence from before and after the storm can be powerful tools in rebutting this argument. An attorney familiar with how these disputes play out can assess the str...

Q: How is liability established in a burn injury case?
A: Liability depends on the circumstances that caused the burn. In premises liability cases, the injured person must show that the property owner knew or should have known about a dangerous condition and failed to address it. In product liability cases, the claim may rest on manufacturing defects, design defects, or failure to warn, and the injured person does not have to prove negligence in the traditional sense. In workplace cases, workers' compensation covers medical expenses and partial wage...

Q: What degree of burn is required to have a viable legal claim?
A: There is no minimum burn degree required to bring a claim, but the practical reality is that the strength and value of a burn injury case corresponds closely to the severity of the injury. Third-degree burns that cause permanent scarring, require skin grafting, or result in functional impairment generate claims of significantly greater value than minor first-degree burns. Second-degree burns vary widely in severity. An attorney can evaluate the specific injury and prognosis in the context of ...

Q: Can I sue my landlord if I was burned in a fire at my apartment?
A: Potentially, yes. Florida landlords have legal obligations to maintain properties in a reasonably safe condition, which includes functioning smoke detectors, proper electrical systems, and code-compliant gas lines. If a fire resulted from a landlord's failure to address a known hazard or maintain required safety equipment, the landlord may face premises liability. The specific facts, including whether the landlord had notice of the dangerous condition, are central to that analysis.

Q: My burn happened at work. Can I still file a personal injury claim?
A: Workers' compensation in Florida is generally the exclusive remedy against your employer for workplace injuries, but it is not the only avenue. If a third party contributed to the burn, such as a contractor on the job site, an equipment manufacturer, or a property owner other than your employer, a separate personal injury claim against that party is possible and can be pursued alongside a workers' compensation claim. These cases require careful analysis of who controlled the conditions that l...

Q: How long does a burn injury lawsuit typically take in Palm Beach County?
A: Serious burn injury cases that proceed through litigation in Palm Beach County's Circuit Court often take one to three years from filing to resolution, depending on the complexity of the medical issues, the number of defendants, and the court's docket. Cases that settle before trial move faster, but settling before the full extent of injuries and future medical needs is documented can significantly undervalue the claim. An attorney can advise on the appropriate timing for resolution based on ...
