Insurance Providers Will Not Offer a Fair Settlement


An insurer may contact you with an initial offer if you file a personal injury claim. Remember that you might not be fairly compensated by this offer. It takes time to assess your damages precisely, and an insurance provider will want you to accept a minimal payment.


To ensure that your family is receiving everything to which they are entitled, we can evaluate any offer. If required, we can litigate your case and seek a just settlement. Even though some cases are settled before they go to trial, we occasionally file a lawsuit right away.

Steps to Compensation

  • 1. Seek Treatment for Injuries

    The most crucial action to take following an accident-related injury is to seek medical attention. Some people believe there is no need for an examination because they don't have any acute symptoms following the mishap. Even though you might not have any pain or discomfort right away after the injury, you might experience severe agony a year later.


    Additionally, skipping medical care will hurt your chances of receiving financial compensation for your injuries. The insurance companies for the negligent party will utilize the fact that you delayed seeking medical attention after the accident to cast doubt on the severity of your injury and your right to reimbursement.

  • 2. Contact Hogan Smith

    You could need a personal injury attorney to help you recover the full cost of your medical care if you were in a serious accident, your injuries require ongoing care or frequent hospital trips, or both.


    Even if you decide against hiring one, you should at the very least speak with one about your claim. You might not be aware of some regulations, such as the statute of limitations, which establishes a deadline for filing a lawsuit. No matter how little you think your accident or injury was, you might discover that filing a claim is trickier than you anticipated.

  • 3.File a Claim

    The third stage in making a personal injury claim is to notify the party responsible for your injuries and their insurance company that you intend to do so. This can be done by you or by your lawyer. This may occasionally facilitate a speedy resolution of your claim.

  • 4. Gather Documents/Evidence

    Now is the time to gather your medical bills and records from your doctors, talk to them about the full extent of your injuries, find out what kind of ongoing care you will need, gather bills and/or estimates for the damage to your car or personal property, keep track of lost wages, etc.

  • 5. Settlement Negotiation

    Your personal injury attorney at Hogan Smith will be responsible for contacting the responsible parties and their insurance company to reach a settlement agreement. You and your attorney will accept the offer if the settlement obtained via negotiations is one you will be content with. But if the respondent does not make a reasonable counteroffer, you can decide to sue in order to get the just recompense you deserve.

  • 6. File a Lawsuit

    If our attorneys cannot reach a settlement agreement with the at-fault parties, we file a lawsuit with the courts. If your case goes to trial, we will present evidence and the judge and jury will decided your compensation.

Insurance offering a settlement of depreciated value?

You Deserve Replacement Cost

As the victim of a car accident, you are entitled to the total amount needed to replace your vehicle. Extra costs that you might not have considered are:

  • Current replacement cost of your particular make, model, and year
  • Sales Tax
  • Titling Fees
  • Vehicle Registration Fees
  • License Plate Fees

Hiring a personal injury attorney will help you get the compensation you need to get back on the road and on with your life. Don't waste another day, call Hogan Smith to get started on your claim.

WERE YOU DECLARED AT FAULT?

YOUR INSURANCE STILL MUST PAY

If your insurance company is refusing to pay what you deserve, contact Hogan Smith today to fight to that which you are entitled.

Personal Injury Compensation

An auto accident personal injury victim may be able to pursue compensation for their damages depending on the specifics of the incident or auto accident, the seriousness of their injuries, and other considerations.


Pain and Suffering

Calculating the Unseen Personal Injury Costs

Pain and suffering are different for each claimant, but fairly common standards are used to calculate compensation. Things that will be considered are the physical pain caused by the vehicle accident injuries, the after-effects of the pain such as anxiety, loss of sleep, loss of appetite, the pain caused by needed treatments or therapies to treat your injuries, and the subsequent limitations on your life due to your injuries and/or treatments. Hogan Smith attorneys will help you gather the appropriate documentation and evidence to get the maximum compensation for your pain and suffering.

Accidents that Result in Wrongful Death

Proving Fault


And Why It Matters

After an automobile accident, you must proceed quickly. Don't wait to gather evidence in order to establish negligence and your own innocence. Calling the police and speaking with them should be your initial move, provided you do not require immediate transfer to a hospital. Ensure that an accident report is filed and that your description of the incident is included in the report.


It's crucial to compile witness statements and the contact information of anyone who stopped after observing the collision. While the police should question them as well, you should never rely on them to handle this task alone. To be safe and to use later, gather their statements yourself. If you learn that someone has been arrested days later, you can also obtain statements from prospective witnesses.

Making the Most of Your Accident Claim

According to Florida law, a victim of a car accident may have the right and the capacity to pursue compensation for economic compensatory damages, non-economic compensatory damages, and/or damages for pain and suffering when their injuries and/or property damage are caused directly by someone else's carelessness, recklessness, or negligence.



Even though a car accident is frequently referred to by other names like an automobile accident, auto accident, or motor vehicle accident, this field of law is covered by Florida law's personal injury statutes. For additional information, get in touch with our personal injury attorneys.

  • How will I be compensated if the negligent driver is uninsured?

    Claims involving uninsured and underinsured motorists entail complicated legal and insurance jargon. You shouldn't attempt to file an uninsured or underinsured driver claim on your own. In a normal uninsured motorist case, the at-fault driver is not typically sued because it is likely that they lack insurance due to their financial situation. In most cases, you are filing a claim with your insurance provider. The goal of insurance companies is to give you the least amount of money; they can even reject your claim and give you nothing. The fact that other parties may share responsibility for your injuries only serves to exacerbate the situation.


    When an uninsured motorist causes you harm, Hogan Smith will pursue reimbursement for you using every available legal tactic. Call us to arrange a free consultation.

  • What is the best way to contact you?

  • Is Florida a no fault or fault state?

    Florida has no-fault car insurance laws. This means that regardless of who caused the collision, drivers are required to have personal injury protection insurance (PIP) to cover their medical costs and other accident-related liabilities. There are limitations on when you can claim compensation from another party due to the no-fault rule.
