Auto Accidents
Auto accidents can result in serious injuries or death. A fundamental question following any accident is that of liability. Liability is the legal concept that is essentially the same as "fault" — the question of who is at fault for the accident. Although the concept sounds simple, the determination of liability is sometimes not simple at all. In many cases, more than one party (person or corporation or other legal entity) is liable.
Florida automobile accident law allows you to recover for injuries sustained as the result of another’s negligent operation of a motor vehicle. Damages from these claims include property damage, medical expenses, loss of income and future earnings, as well as pain and suffering. Sometimes the person who is making the accident claim is liable to some degree for his or her accident. Percentages are often used by a court or jury to describe liability — for example, a plaintiff (the accident victim) being found 30 percent liable, and the sole defendant being 70 percent liable. Even if the person making the claim is partially liable, he or she may still be eligible to recover damages.
