No matter the circumstances, anyone who believes they may have suffered a personal injury should consult with a skilled Largo personal injury lawyer as soon as possible. By meeting with an attorney, you can determine if you have a valid personal injury claim and what your next steps should be. If you wait too long to consult with one, you could run the risk of missing the deadline for filing a lawsuit if one becomes necessary. In Florida, this deadline is four years from the date you sustain your injury.
Without legal representation, the insurance company may try to take advantage of you by getting you to settle for less than what your claim is worth or twisting what you say to devalue or deny your claim. Therefore, it’s always in your best interest to contact an attorney as soon as possible to protect your rights after a personal injury.
