Personal Injury Attorney | Car Accident | Compensation

In the state of Florida, there are several ways to receive compensation following an auto accident. Many times you may be able to receive compensation through your insurance company, PIP or no-fault insurance.

Under Florida law, if you are hit and not at fault in an auto accident, your insurance company provides personal injury protection for you, which covers medical treatment and depending upon coverage, loss wages. Loss wages are covered at 60 percent of your earnings if you are disabled and cannot work.

Another way to receive compensation after being involved in an auto accident is to hire an experienced personal injury attorney. An attorney works with the insurance carrier to assist coverage for medical bills and treatment, as well as go after the at-fault driver for additional compensation. Once medical treatment is completed, a car accident attorney will present a claim to the insurance company to seek additional compensation for your claim, because no-fault coverage covers up to 80 percent of medical bills.

In some cases, there may not be insurance coverage under the at-fault driver. So, it is important to seek a personal injury lawyer to protect your rights and assist in getting you the compensation you deserve. Contact Attorney, Michael C.

Chapter 7 Bankruptcy | Bankruptcy Attorney

Chapter7BankruptcyChapter 7 Bankruptcy is a complex area of law and involves many considerations, including: whether to file, determining which type of Bankruptcy to file, the use of exemptions, understanding the protections of the Bankruptcy Code and using them to your advantage.

 

Bankruptcy advantages and alternatives to consider:

Elimination of Debt: The main advantage to filing for bankruptcy is the discharge of most debt. The discharge totally eliminates the obligation to pay many types of debt including your credit card debt, old medical bills, utilities bills, unsecured loans, pay day loans, and most other types of unsecured debt. ***Note: Certain types of debt cannot be avoided by filing for bankruptcy including Student Loans, Child Support and Alimony Payments, Court Fines, DUI judgments against the debtor, and debts incurred by Fraud.

Avoid Creditor Harassment: Once a debtor files for bankruptcy, there is an automatic stay on the collection of debt and most creditors must terminate their collection efforts immediately. The stay is an automatic court order that prohibits all sorts of collection attempts by creditors, and postpones most actions against the debtor, including repossessions, garnishments or attachments, utility shutoffs, foreclosures, and evictions.

Get a Fresh Start: You will be able to pay the things that are important to you, and begin rebuilding your credit in peace!

Alternatives to Consider: Bankruptcy is not the only method of dealing with insurmountable debt, and other methods may be more advantageous for your particular situation. Such alternatives may include an out-of-court settlement with creditors, reduction of payments to creditors, consolidation of debts, or payment of debts by sale of assets or borrowing on assets. However, the availability of these methods varies depending on the severity of your financial difficulties, and also requires cooperation from creditors.

If you are having trouble meeting your debt obligations, consult an experienced Tampa Bankruptcy attorney to discuss your options.
