Lesiones Personales

Las partes en un accidente estan a menudo en contacto con las compañías de seguros en un intento de llevar a las victimas de lesiones personales para resolver una demanda por lesiones ràpidamente, y por un monto no negociado. Antes de que una oferta de liquidacion ni siquiera se discute, es muy importante saber en primer lugar el alcance de sus lesiones.

Por lo general, la gravedad de los daños sufridos en un accidente no es facil de determinar, y en muchos casos, el perjudicado puede sufrir lesiones de tejidos blandos o latentes que no se presentan sino hasta mucho mas tarde. Sin embargo, una vez que un acuerdo está hecho y ofrecido, una parte perjudicada  lanza su derecho  a la recuperaciòn de las lesiones relacionadas con ese incidente en particular.

Si usted esta involucrado en un accidente de auto , siempre es importante buscar primero a un mèdico. Despues de  un accidente de auto, lo major es acudir de inmediato al hospital o centro de tratamiento para determiner las medidas necesarias de rehabilitacion que podran ser necesarias.

En Segundo lugar, una parte perjudicada siempre debe contactar a un abogado para asesoria legal e informacion general sobre como proceder despues de un accidente.

En el caso de un contacto con la compañia de seguros con respecto a su demanda por lesiones, no se ofresca a dar ninguna declaracion grabada sin antes consultar con un abogado.

Florida Auto Accident Claims

Parties to an accident are often times contacted by insurance companies in an attempt to get personal injury victims to settle an injury claim quickly, and for a non-negotiated amount. Before a settlement offer is even discussed, it is extremely important to first know the extent of your injuries.

Usually, the severity of damage sustained in an accident is not easily determined, and in many cases an injured party may suffer soft tissue or latent injuries that do not arise until much later. However, once a settlement agreement is made and tendered, an injured party releases all further rights to recovery for injuries related to that particular incident.

If you are involved in an auto accident, it is always important to first seek medical attention. After an auto accident, it is best to go immediately to the hospital or other treatment facility to determine the extent of your injuries and pinpoint the necessary steps of rehabilitation that might be required.

Secondly, an injured party should always contact an auto accident attorney for legal consultation and general information on how to proceed following an accident. In the event an insurance company contacts you regarding your injury claim, do not offer any recorded statements without first consulting with an attorney.

Process of Purchasing a Home

A Real Estate Closing is the final step of the home purchase process, whereby the buyer and seller sign the papers to transfer the ownership of the home. In order to complete this final phase of the purchase process, it is important to understand the timeline of requirements that take place leading up to the Closing.

First, a buyer must open an escrow account with a neutral third party, whereby the buyer provides earnest money to be held in consideration of the purchase in order to demonstrate good-faith that the buyer fully intends on completing the sale.

Following the opening on an escrow account the buyer then needs to take the necessary steps to protect their interest in the home. These steps include:

  • Completing a Title search
  • Purchasing Title Insurance
  • Completing a Home inspection and Pest inspection
  • Negotiating the Closing costs; and
  • Locking the interest rate of the mortgage.

These steps are important in the completion of any Real Estate transaction, and many times it is important for the buyer to seek legal counsel prior to moving forward with the purchase process. An experienced real estate attorney can provide professional legal advice, and interpret the very complicated language involved in most Closing documents. The attorney is also capable of identifying potential problems with your purchase documentation, and can save you the hassle of dealing with unexpected complications that may arise during the Real Estate purchase process.

If you or a loved one is considering purchasing a home and need advice on what to expect, call Blick Law Firm today at (813) 931-0840. Schedule a free 15-minute consultation with attorney Michael Blickensderfer. Think quick, call Blick!

Bankruptcy Joint vs. Separate Filing

When married couples consider Chapter 7 or 13 Bankruptcy, they are faced with the choice of determining whether to file jointly or individually. This determination is important, and many concerns should be addressed prior to deciding what to do.

Many times, one spouse may have debts alone and deem it necessary to file a bankruptcy separate from the other spouse. However, in cases where both spouses are facing financial hardship in meeting the payments on their debt it can be advantageous to file Bankruptcy jointly. Advantages to filing jointly include:

  • Paying only one filing fee instead of paying the same fee twice for separate filings;
  • Assistance from the other spouse in gathering all the necessary documentation together, which can be extremely burdensome; and
  • Filing jointly is more efficient by consolidating the filing, making it is less time consuming.

Joint filing can have disadvantages as well, especially when there is a large disparity in the debts and assets between the spouses. It is important to consult a bankruptcy attorney to determine what the most effective and beneficial filing is for your specific situation.

If you or a loved one have concerns about Bankruptcy or are considering filing Bankruptcy jointly, call Blick Law Firm today at (813) 931-0840. Schedule a free 15-minute consultation with attorney Michael Blickensderfer.

Effects of an Auto Accident while Pregnant

Auto accidents can be devastating, and injuries sustained in an accident can begin a timeline of treatment and therapy that can take months to complete. In the event an injured party is pregnant, more complications obviously arise.

It is important to understand the possible trauma that can occur to a pregnant person in an auto accident, and the effect it could have on a fetus. Physical trauma can include negative effects such as Placental Separation, Bleeding, Premature Labor, and may even require an Emergency C-section to be performed.

Emotional trauma as a result of an accident can also have negative reaching effects on a pregnancy. The stress that results from involvement in an auto accident can cause pre-term labor, and negatively affect the health of the fetus. It is especially important to see a doctor following an auto accident in order to assess any potential trauma, as well as seek legal counsel pertaining to the potential claim for you and your unborn child.
