WHAT A DEDICATED PERSONAL INJURY LAWYER DO FOR YOU

by The Perazzo Law Firm, P.A.

What does a dedicated Personal Injury Attorney and Law Firm do for their clients?

The Perazzo Law Firm – Dedicated to putting their clients interests first…Always!

Personal injury accidents that require legal assistance and representation go beyond knowing the law (Tort Law), especially when dealing with insurance companies for compensation from personal injury accidents that lead to medical attention and economic losses. Personal injury accidents stemming from vehicle collisions, slip and fall incidents, dog attacks, premises liability claims, defective products or services, and wrongful death, will most often cast victims and loved-ones into a whirlwind of complications that stem beyond their concerns for physical, mental, and economic recovery. Many times, insurance companies will place obstacles down the road to recovery and resort to the common practice of offering accident victims unfair compensation settlements. Basically, and in layman’s terms, insurance companies like to make money not spend it, especially if the accident victim and/or family requires a large sum of money to compensate for losses incurred. However, it’s not all about money when a dedicated personal injury lawyer is involved. Though Jonathan Perazzo focuses on maximizing the accident victim’s recovery, he and his entire legal staff strive jointly to achieve their client’s 100% satisfaction. How? – By attending to every aspect of their claim throughout the entire legal process and until their case is resolved. When a client is 100% satisfied, Perazzo Law is too!

In Miami, Jonathan Perazzo and his highly-dedicated and professional personal injury staff, remind potential clients that choosing a law firm that has a good reputation in terms of results and client satisfaction, is just as important as going to the right doctor, electrician, or mechanic for service. Apart from understand the law and knowing how to confront insurance providers, a dedicated and experienced personal injury lawyer will be able to help accident victims that have suffered personal injury, seek proper medical care and get access physical therapy facilities for quality rehabilitation. Also, given the experience obtained from handling thousands of clients that have sustained bodily injury, a personal injury lawyer will be able to relate to the pain and suffering accident victims experience. Furthermore, hiring a personal injury lawyer is extremely helpful when pain and suffering causes accident victims to become overwhelmed with the legal complications that come from accidents and insurance claims. Many times, accident victims fail to remember that an insurance claim may end-up in a court of law. When this happens, a personal injury lawyer is required to carry out a successful litigation.

gavel-1238036-300x201 Why is a personal injury lawyer needed when a case goes to trial? Simply because a trial lawyer has access to vital information that a client may not know exists, and this information may make or break a case, and this is of utmost importance when financial compensation for damages and injuries is at stake.

WHAT HAPPENS IF I AM INJURED IN A CAR ACCIDENT?

by The Perazzo Law Firm, P.A.

JONATHAN PERAZZO, PERSONAL INJURY ATTORNEY AND FOUNDER OF THE PERAZZO LAW FIRM IN MIAMI, ANSWERS THE QUESTION; “WHAT HAPPENS IF I AM INJURED IN A CAR ACCIDENT?”

“If you are the driver or a passenger that is injured in a car accident, it is highly recommended that you seek medical attention, even if no evident signs of bodily harm are present.” Jonathan Perazzo, a highly dedicated and experienced car accident attorney, with almost a decade of representing clients injured in traffic accidents in Miami- Dade and Broward County, strongly urges accident victims to do this.

From his vast experience dealing with injured parties and filing insurance claims for compensation, the moments following a car accident are crucial to the success of an insurance claim. Injuries to the head, neck, and back are often quite common and sometimes go unnoticed at the time of the crash, manifesting themselves over time. However, by that time it may be too late to seek compensation or reduce the chances of filing an insurance claim which fairly compensates the accident victim and his/her family members in the event of lost wages or crippling medical expenses. After an accident that involves a head-on or rear-end collision, drivers will undoubtedly suffer some sort of neck injury through damage to the cervical spine. Injuries to the cervical spine may result in headaches, numbness in the upper or lower extremities, and sometimes even dizziness. These may result in permanent injuries to accident victims after an accident if not treated immediately and properly through quality medical care. That’s why, knowing what to do after an accident is so crucial to the well-being of the accident victims. Following an accident, victims should present themselves to the nearest hospital for a medical evaluation, making sure to request and keep all medical records of their visit and results. Upon presenting themselves to the hospital, they should notify the treating physician of any pain they are experiencing and any factors not in line with the way they normally feel. For example, after a rear-end or head-on collision, drivers or passengers may feel dizziness or experience headaches, two factors that require a C-scan or MRI of the cervical spine. When a car accident victim suffers a blow to the head or injuries to the face, especially if airbags deploy because of the impact, the neck and cervical spine must be examined properly. Sometimes a car accident victim may experience injuries to the face that may include lacerations and contusions to the nose from banging their face against the steering wheel, dashboard, or from a deployed airbag. It’s worth noting that suffering a broken nose is quite common when airbags deploy, and a broken nose can be considered a permanent injury.

Slip and Fall accidents encompass a special area of law governing situations where an individual suffers bodily harm while on the property of another business or indivdual.

by The Perazzo Law Firm, P.A.

Sizzling finale to Sticky Frying pan Class-Action Lawsuit.

gavel-1238036-300x201 TAMPA, Fla. A woman that had purchased a non-stick frying pan off an “As-Seen-On-TV” ad, settled independently rather than through a class action suit. In what began in New York as a lawsuit based on the grounds that the non-stick frying pan was in fact too sticky, ended in a Florida federal court. The case and its settlement were made public on August 28 with the specific terms unspecified publicly.

Apparently, the $20 Blue Diamond Enhanced Ceramic Non-Stick Pan, wasn’t up to par with what was advertised on TV, and every time the buyer, a Florida resident, used the pan to prepared a fried meal, the food got stuck to the non-stick pan’s surface.
