West Palm Beach Personal Injury Lawyers Seeking Financial Recovery For Clients

Dedicated lawyers fight on behalf of negligence victims

It takes a seasoned attorney to hold negligent parties accountable for the injuries they cause. At Vassallo, Bilotta & Davis, we fight on behalf of South Florida clients who have been hurt in vehicle accidents, falls and other incidents triggered by the carelessness of others. From offices in West Palm Beach and Stuart, our lawyers obtain substantial compensation for victims through verdicts and favorable settlements. With more than a century of combined legal experience, firm attorneys are tireless advocates for injured individuals during trials and settlement negotiations. No matter what type of negligence led to your injury, we will vigorously pursue damages for medical costs, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

Knowledgeable advisers detail Florida legal standards for injury claims

If you’ve been injured and wonder whether you have a claim, our experienced attorneys can explain key aspects of personal injury law, such as:

• Statute of limitations — Florida law allows injured victims four years from the date of the incident to file suit. However, any delay lessens the likelihood of locating key evidence and witnesses.
• Damage caps — Though some states have strict damage caps for personal injury plaintiffs, Florida limits only punitive damages and certain medical malpractice awards.
• Comparative negligence — Even if you are partly responsible for the incident where you were hurt, relief is still available under the state’s pure comparative negligence standard. Victims are entitled to collect damages that are reduced by the percentage of fault assigned to them.

As committed personal injury and workers’ compensation lawyers, we understand the financial pressures you face when you get hurt and cannot work. That is why we offer a free initial consultation so that you can obtain immediate legal support.

Stuart attorneys assist people injured in motor vehicle accidents

Busy Florida roads and increasingly distracted drivers frequently lead to car accidents. Throughout the area, we represent individuals who have been hurt in car crashes and other vehicle collisions. We battle for a fair resolution and make sure that you do not accept unfair settlement offers from insurance companies or adversaries. Our accomplished litigators also understand the specific legal and factual issues associated with motorcycle and truck accidents.

Seasoned advocates pursue compensation for people hurt in falls

Property owners must take reasonable measures to prevent hazardous conditions on their premises. If you have been hurt due to a slip and fall incident, we can review the circumstances to determine if negligence contributed to the injury. Whether you tripped on a slick floor, fell on an unsafe outdoor walkway or suffered some other type of slip and fall accident, we will work hard to pinpoint the responsible parties and hold them accountable.

Proven lawyers deliver strong results in dog bite cases

Florida dog owners are responsible for the damage that results from dog bites, even if the animal does not have a history of attacking people. When this occurs, we help injured victims obtain full compensation from defendants and their insurance companies. These frightening incidents can cause serious injuries, requiring extensive treatment, so we make sure to seek a result that fairly addresses the harm you have suffered.

Dedicated counselors advise family members on wrongful death actions

When a person dies because of someone else’s negligence or misconduct, our firm seeks appropriate damages under Florida’s wrongful death statute. We conduct a thorough investigation so that bereaved family members can secure financial compensation for funeral costs, wages that the victim would have earned, and the companionship that was lost. Whether the fatality arose from a car crash, an intentional act or some other type of incident, we can help deliver some relief during a difficult time.

Knowledgeable attorneys handle spinal cord and brain injury litigation

In these cases, we make sure that the short- and long-term consequences of your injury are fully outlined for jurors and adversaries.
