An injury can throw off everything from your daily routine to your long-term financial plans. If you were hurt in the Coral Ridge Country Club area or anywhere else in Fort Lauderdale, understanding your legal options can help you decide what to do next.
A personal injury lawyer can guide you through the process, helping you understand which accidents may qualify for compensation and what the claims process looks like. Knowing this can make a big difference as you work to recover.
A Fort Lauderdale legal team may handle many different accident and injury claims. Not every incident qualifies for compensation, but certain circumstances often lead to litigation.
Car, truck and motorcycle crashes are a leading source of injuries in Florida. Even a low-speed collision can lead to severe harm, such as broken bones or head trauma. When drivers don’t follow traffic laws, they—or their insurance providers—may be responsible for the resulting damage.
Slip and trip hazards can lead to serious injuries on someone else’s property. Generally, property owners must address or warn about potential dangers. If they ignore a known risk, they could be held responsible for any harm that occurs.
Residents in care facilities depend on staff for their well-being. When caregivers fail to meet reasonable standards—whether by neglect, physical harm or improper supervision—those responsible may face legal liability.
Doctors and other healthcare professionals aim to provide safe treatment, but mistakes can happen. When a provider’s error or oversight leads to a significant injury, it may qualify as malpractice. Surgical errors, birth injuries and misdiagnoses are common examples of preventable failures that can form the basis of a claim.
Medical malpractice cases are tough to win without a personal injury attorney because they involve complex medical information, and proving that a healthcare provider’s mistake caused serious harm can be challenging. You need expert testimony, solid evidence and a clear understanding of the law to fight for justice.
Manufacturers and retailers should ensure their products are safe for consumers. If a defect in design, production or labeling causes harm, legal action may be warranted.
Faulty vehicle parts, dangerous prescription drugs or recalled household items are some of the more frequent sources of product liability cases.
If you’ve been hurt because of someone else’s actions, you may be able to recover money for different types of losses. Although every case is unique, here are some common categories of damages:
Knowing the typical types of damages can give you a sense of what you might ask for in a claim. However, you could have unique factors beyond these categories, so talking with a personal injury lawyer can help you understand your specific options.
The claims process usually starts when you notify the person or insurance company you believe is responsible for the accident. Then, you’ll collect information to show how you were harmed, especially medical records and witness statements.
While most cases settle, sometimes you have to go to court. Here’s a quick look at the usual steps:
Going to court can involve months or even years of back-and-forth, including gathering evidence, scheduling court dates and dealing with potential appeals. This process can be stressful and expensive. For many people, settling ends up being a more practical and efficient choice, especially if the offer fairly covers their losses.
There’s no single formula for figuring out how much a personal injury claim might be worth without having more information about your case. Things like how badly you were hurt, what your medical bills look like, how your everyday life changed and whether the at-fault party has insurance all play a part.
Below are a couple of past outcomes that Kogan & DiSalvo personal injury attorneys have secured our clients. These examples aren’t guarantees or predictions of future results, but they show how settlements can vary:
If you’ve been hurt in a crash or any other accident, contact our Fort Lauderdale team to talk about your situation and learn more about your options.
In most personal injury cases, lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if they win money for you. At Kogan & DiSalvo, your consultation is always free, so you can learn about your legal options without any upfront cost.
Our contingency arrangement also covers filing fees, record requests and expert evaluations. You only pay us a percentage of what we recover, and if we don’t win anything for you, you won’t owe attorney fees.
In Florida, you have just two years from the date of your accident to file a lawsuit seeking compensation for your injuries. Certain exceptions can apply, such as those involving minors or cases where the harm was not immediately discoverable.
If you have questions about how these deadlines affect your situation, it’s wise to speak with a personal injury attorney as soon as possible to ensure you don’t miss the window to pursue your claim.
Whether an accident caused you physical pain, emotional stress or financial worries, this tough time can leave you feeling lost. At Kogan & DiSalvo, we’re ready to help you by offering a free consultation and a financial guarantee that you’ll only get paid if we win money for you—so there are no upfront costs and no added stress about fees. Our goal is for you to focus on healing, not on the confusing legal processes.
If you were injured in an accident in Coral Ridge Country Club, Fort Lauderdale, or anywhere else in South Florida, our personal injury lawyers are ready to fight for you so you can get the compensation you deserve.

Three years ago I had an injury while away on vacation and contacted Kogan and DiSalvo the next day. Their entire team were absolutely great from my initial call and intake, to trial date and settlement.
My attorney, George, helped me through every step of the process. He always kept me informed on the progress of the case and always responded to any questions I had.
I highly recommend Kogan & DiSalvo, a law firm that truly cares about their clients.

The firm was great with my case.
Karen Clarke
I had the pleasure of working with Todd Baker and, more closely, Paul Sylvestri on my case. From the very beginning, Paul was not only thorough and knowledgeable, but also made me feel truly supported. He handled every step with urgency and care, ensuring that the process moved forward efficiently, far faster than I expected, given how long cases like mine can often drag on.
What stood out most was how genuinely I felt treated as a person, not just another case file. I quickly learned that most personal injury law firms make clients feel like they’re just part of a revolving door. That was never the case here. Paul and his team prioritized my well-being and worked hard to ensure I was fairly and fully compensated for my suffering.
Their professionalism, compassion, and commitment made an overwhelming situation much more manageable. I’m incredibly grateful for the outcome and the way I was treated throughout the process. I couldn’t have asked for a better team.

Jennifer was amazing throughout the whole process.

I was fortunate to be represented by this amazing law firm after a car accident, and I have nothing but gratitude for their work. From the very first contact, they demonstrated professionalism, empathy, and a genuine commitment to resolving my case in the best possible way.
I want to especially highlight Stephany Herrera, who was my first point of contact. From the beginning, she was open, attentive, and truly listened to me. Thanks to her, I was connected with attorney Paul Silvestri, who, along with the entire team, handled my case with excellence, keeping me informed every step of the way.
Thanks to their dedication and hard work, my case was successfully resolved. I highly recommend this firm to anyone in need of legal assistance. Thank you again to the entire team for your support and commitment.
Rachel Wilson

Thank You team for your hard work and effort. I can say my medical bills are paid and my case settled. Thanks Again for being a reputable organization.
James Pinto
Absolutely astonishing to work with. Not only has every question I’ve asked been answered, everyone has made everything in the process very pleasing!
Scott Solomon
My wife and I were in a major accident. After the accident one of our big worries was our medical bills. Sam at Kogan and DiSalvo coordinated with our Drs to assure coverage and put our minds at rest. I had to have surgery which thankfully went well. I was very happy to not have any unanswered concerns during that time. The person who hit us blamed us for the accident but our dash camera showed them at fault. Tiffany our Rockstar of a lawyer proved them at fault and leveraged the insurance for the maximum settlement. She then went after our under/uninsured coverage and fought for a settlement that we could never have dreamed of. Never a doubt Tiffany and the team of Kogan and DiSalvo are the lawyers that you want on your side. Thank you again.

Trust the Process – Outstanding Team, Remarkable Results
Working with Kogan & DiSalvo was one of the best decisions I could’ve made—and a huge part of that was thanks to Tiffany Fanelli. From start to finish, she and the team were knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely committed to helping me through every step of the legal process.
You really have to trust the process. It can be slow, and at times, it might feel like nothing is happening—but behind the scenes, your team is working hard. If you have questions, ask. If you’re not sure what to do, ask. That open communication made all the difference for me, and it helped me stay informed and confident the entire way through.
I can’t thank Tiffany and the firm enough for their hard work and support. Their patience, professionalism, and attention to detail led to an outcome that exceeded my expectations.
One more thing—if you don’t have UM (Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist) coverage, get it. Too many drivers out there are uninsured, and protecting yourself with UM coverage is essential. I’ve learned how crucial it is, and I hope others will too.
Highly recommend Kogan & DiSalvo, and especially Tiffany Fanelli, for anyone needing a reliable and compassionate legal team. Thank you all for All your hard work.
