Weston, FL Personal Injury Lawyers

Accidents strike when life is unfolding normally—turning plans upside down and leaving families facing unexpected challenges. Weston, Florida, with its well-kept neighborhoods and close-knit community, is a wonderful place to call home. But even here, unexpected accidents—like car collisions, slips and falls, or medical errors—can leave you physically hurt and emotionally shaken. When this happens, having a compassionate, dedicated personal injury lawyer from Kogan & DiSalvo standing with you can make all the difference. We understand this isn’t just a case; it’s your life, and we are committed to guiding you every step of the way.

Understanding Personal Injury Law in Florida

Florida’s personal injury laws exist to protect those harmed by someone else’s negligence and to help victims recover full and fair compensation for their physical, emotional, and financial losses. Personal injury claims can arise from a variety of incidents, including:

• Car Accidents: These are among the most common and often involve cars, motorcycles, bicycles, and pedestrians. Even a minor collision can result in serious injury or long-term consequences.
• Slip and Fall Accidents: Property owners in Florida are legally responsible for maintaining safe conditions. When hazards like wet floors, uneven pavement, or poor lighting cause accidents, victims have the right to hold negligent parties accountable.
• Medical Malpractice: When medical professionals fail to provide appropriate care, resulting in misdiagnoses, surgical errors, medication mistakes, or other forms of negligence, patients deserve justice.
• Product Liability: Defective or dangerous products can cause serious harm, and manufacturers or sellers must be held responsible.
• Wrongful Death: In tragic cases where negligence causes a fatality, families deserve support and compensation as they seek to heal and find closure.

Every claim is unique, and understanding your rights will empower you to protect your future.

Common Questions, Clear Answers

Clients frequently ask:

• “How much time do I have to file a claim?” Florida generally allows four years from the injury date to file personal injury lawsuits, but medical malpractice claims typically have a two-year limit. Waiting too long can cost you your case.
• “Can I afford a lawyer?” Most personal injury cases in our firm work on a contingency fee basis—meaning you pay nothing unless we win your case, offering peace of mind when finances are tight.
• “Will I have to go to court?” Many cases settle, but if trial is necessary, we stand with you every step of the way, bringing knowledge and compassion to the courtroom.

Your questions are important and deserve honest, straightforward answers.

The Realities of Injury Risks in Weston

Weston is a community that values safety, but accidents still happen. Its location near major highways such as I-75 and I-595 means traffic incidents are, unfortunately, frequent. In Broward County alone, thousands of crashes lead to injuries annually.

• Speeding, distracted driving, and weather contribute heavily to car accidents here.
• Slip and fall incidents stem from hazards like wet surfaces or neglected maintenance, even in upscale communities.
• Medical malpractice and defective product injuries, while less common, carry serious consequences that need expert attention.

Recognizing these risks empowers you to seek help promptly and protect your rights.

Florida’s Comparative Negligence: What It Means for You

Florida’s pure comparative negligence rule can affect how much you recover after an accident. If you’re partially at fault—even slightly—your award may be reduced by your percentage of responsibility. For example, if you’re awarded $100,000 but found 20% responsible for the accident, you’d receive $80,000.

This underscores why having experienced lawyers like those at Kogan & DiSalvo matters. We meticulously investigate and challenge fault determinations to safeguard your rightful compensation.

Choosing the Right Legal Partner in Weston

Your lawyer becomes an ally during one of life’s most difficult times. Look for:
