  • How Much Does It Cost to Retain a Personal Injury Lawyer?

    Many people are under the mistaken impression that they need to have money set aside in order to hire a personal injury lawyer. The truth is that Morgan and Morgan, much like many other Florida personal injury attorneys, work on a contingency fee basis. This means that we do not accept payment upfront for your legal claim and are only paid if we win your case or settle your case outside of court for you.

    This can give you peace of mind that we are working as hard as possible to fight for you and puts no further financial pressure on you during one of the most challenging times of your life. If you're currently dealing with the impacts of a personal injury accident, know that Morgan & Morgan lawyers will take up your case and do everything we can to help you walk away with the compensation that you need to close this chapter of your life.

    A personal injury lawsuit should not take an additional toll on you when you have the right personal injury attorney to help you. Our lawyers will handle the legal and insurance-related aspects of your case when you have been hurt so that your focus remains on your medical care and increasing your chances of recovery during this difficult time.

    Know that when you work with Morgan & Morgan attorneys, we evaluate each victim's case individually and help to determine the most appropriate course of action based on your individual needs and concerns. While we are successful in resolving many of these legal claims outside of court, we are also fully prepared and equipped to go to trial should that become necessary.

  • Do I Need to Hire an Attorney Immediately After an Accident?

    You have plenty of different things to think about. Deciding to file a lawsuit may not yet be on your radar.

    You may assume that your personal injury protection coverage in Florida will pay for your damages, but you may later learn that the severity of your injuries is such that you need additional compensation. Hiring a lawyer not only ensures that you get the protection and payment owed to you under any insurance policy. It also increases your chances of fighting back. If you have extensive medical bills, a permanent disability, or are no longer able to work because of this accident, you may be able to recover significantly more funds by hiring a qualified personal injury lawyer to represent you in your case immediately after you've been hurt.

    To make sure that you can manage your stress as well as remain focused on recovering from the accident, hiring an attorney in Fort Lauderdale, FL is strongly recommended. Our lawyers know that it can feel overwhelming, confusing, and frustrating to navigate the insurance and the legal process following a personal injury claim. Hiring an experienced personal injury attorney also sends a message to the other parties involved in your case about just how seriously you are taking your rights and the damages you may be owed. You do not need to worry about the paperwork or legal-related aspects of your claim without getting the support of an attorney first.

  • What Kinds of Damages Are Available in a Florida Personal Injury Lawsuit?

    Personal injury lawsuits in Florida are designed to help you recover all future and past costs or damages related to an injury that was not your fault. This can include a broad range of payments for damages, such as emotional distress, loss, wages, pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, loss of earning capacity, funeral expenses, and even more depending on your circumstances.

    A qualified attorney can tell you more about what you may be entitled to in a personal injury lawsuit. The lawyers at Morgan & Morgan sit down with victims at the outset of their case to total up your current and potential future medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages directly related to the accident.

    Many people underestimate how much an accident can impact them and therefore may subject themselves to taking a settlement offer that is too low to cover their expenses. This is why our lawyers work with you from the initial consultation so that you are fully prepared to understand each phase of the case and always know what is happening next.

  • How Do I Start a Personal Injury Case?

    Scheduling a consultation with the qualified lawyers at Morgan & Morgan is one of the best ways to put you on the path to full and fair recovery of compensation.

    You have a limited period of time in Florida to file a lawsuit when you have been hurt by someone else's negligence. You need to be prepared to understand what to do to gather this evidence and to file a suit in a timely manner.

    In most cases, the maximum period of time you can file a lawsuit after you've been seriously injured is four years from the date of the accident. Consult with the lawyers at Morgan & Morgan today to learn more about what it takes to file a lawsuit and what you should expect moving forward.

    There are other reasons why it makes sense to communicate with an attorney early on, even if you have not yet decided whether you will be filing a lawsuit. This is because it can take some time for your lawyers to gather all of the information necessary to open a claim. Furthermore, the bills and other expenses associated with the treatment of your accident injuries can pile up quickly. The sooner that you notify a personal injury lawyer about your intent or interest in filing a lawsuit, the easier it will be to begin this process and to be working toward justice.

  • Why Should I Hire Morgan & Morgan?
