Establishing a Medical Malpractice Case in Florida

Months ago, your doctor convinced you that you needed surgery to repair your back. But now, your back is in worse condition than before. And you’re convinced that the doctor’s incompetence is to blame.

You’re not the only one. Research shows that about 400,000 patients who are hospitalized experience preventable harm every year.

Fortunately, it is within your rights to seek compensation for any injuries that a negligent doctor has caused you. The question is, how do you establish a medical malpractice case in Florida?

Here’s a rundown on how to navigate a malpractice case.

Let’s jump in!

Breaching Standard of Care Caused Injury

To establish a medical malpractice case in Florida, you must first offer evidence that your doctor breached the established standard of care.

To do this, you must find a medical professional who is currently practicing in the field that your allegedly at-fault doctor is. Then, you will need to ask that medical expert for an affidavit.

An affidavit is a document that indicates that the medical expert swears to be truthful about the nature of their work, just as they would when testifying in court.

Without an affidavit, your Florida malpractice claim will not move forward as this is a requirement in Florida before bringing your claim.

Note that for specialists, they require you to have an affidavit from a similar type of specialist. So, if a specialist has injured you, be sure to get an affidavit from a similar specialist.

In addition to acquiring an affidavit, you need to prove causation as part of your claim. Specifically, you have the burden of proving that your physician’s breach primarily caused your injury, or was your injury’s “proximate cause.”

Put another way, you need to prove that more likely than not your injury would not have occurred had your doctor not acted negligently.

Medical Malpractice Led to Damages

Another important step in establishing your medical malpractice case is to prove that the allegedly at-fault doctor caused your injury.

For instance, be prepared to demonstrate that you accrued hefty medical expenses as a result of their negligence. Although not required, it is also helpful to prove that your injuries caused you to miss work for a long period of time. Finally, you’ll need to demonstrate that the doctor’s actions caused you extensive pain and suffering.

Doctor Ignored Your Medical History

If your doctor disregarded your medical history, proof of this should also be submitted as part of your Florida malpractice claim.

For example, let’s say you notified your physician that you were taking a particular medicine. However, your doctor prescribes another medicine that interacts with your first medicine in an adverse way.

In this situation, your doctor could be held liable for your medication’s reaction. That’s because the doctor received enough information to provide reasonable care to you and failed to do so.

Doctor Caused Avoidable Injuries

When filing a medical malpractice case, you must also prove that you sustained injuries that were not inevitable or reasonably foreseeable.

For example, let’s say you undergo heart surgery. To reach the heart, your surgeon has to cut through the breastbone.

In this situation, pain is inevitable. For this reason, you cannot sue the doctor for causing pain in your breastbone area. However, you can sue them if you are able to prove that they did not perform your surgery properly.

Investigating Your Case

When it comes to establishing your malpractice case, it is essential that you hire an attorney right away. A lawyer can conduct a thorough investigation of what took place to determine if you have a case.

For starters, they’ll speak with you or your family members to obtain a detailed timeline and story.

Next, the attorney will review your medical records. This can be a complex and challenging process, which is why it’s best to leave this job to your attorney.

Your attorney can then speak with a medical expert and review your medical records with them. Through this process, they can determine if the allegedly at-fault doctor failed to care for you properly and thus caused your injuries. If this is the case, then you’ll enter the pre-suit period.

The Pre-Suit Period

The pre-suit period is a period of 90 days during which the reportedly negligent doctor can do their own investigation of what happened in your case.

Once the 90 days are up, the doctor may offer you a monetary settlement, or they may simply deny your claim.

If your claim is denied or the settlement isn’t large enough to resolve your case, then your attorney may recommend filing a formal lawsuit against the doctor.

Filing a Lawsuit

Note that you have two years after you knew or should have known of the alleged medical malpractice to file your malpractice suit in Florida.

Note that the doctors prevail in eight out of 10 medical malpractice cases that end up going to trial. For this reason, it is critical that you choose a reputable attorney to represent you in court.

Fortunately, if you win your case in Florida, there is no maximum amount of damages you may receive for injuries stemming from medical malpractice.

Commercial Truck Weight Enforcement In Florida

Over 20 million commercial vehicles are weighed yearly at the Florida highway weigh stations. Commercial truck weight enforcement keeps these extra-large vehicles in line and your roads safe. It may not seem important, but trucks could easily get overloaded without this enforcement.

This could significantly damage the roads and put other drivers in danger. As a commercial truck driver, it’s important to know and follow Florida’s maximum weight limits.

Florida Vehicle Restrictions

El Florida statutes outline how physically large a vehicle can be when operating on Florida highways. However, it isn’t just the height, width, and length limits that commercial truck drivers must consider. There are also weight limits.

The state imposes commercial truck weight restrictions because highways are designed to withstand a certain amount of weight. Drive on them with weight over this limit, and the road can prematurely break apart. This creates a dangerous surface for other drivers and increases maintenance costs for the state.

Maximum Weight Allowed

These are the maximum weight limits that all vehicles driving on Florida highways must abide by. While these maximum limits are far beyond what a passenger vehicle weighs, they apply to commercial trucks.

As you can see, there is an overall maximum weight. There is also a maximum weight for the vehicle’s number of axles. The axle is the central shaft or bar that goes under the vehicle and connects the wheels on either side.

A standard semi truck with an attached trailer will have five axles. Knowing the distance between the first and last axles is also important.

• Gross Vehicle Weight – 80,000 pounds
• Single Axle – 22,000 pounds maximum
• Tandem Axle – 44,000 pounds maximum

Van Straight Truck

A straight van truck looks like a local delivery truck or moving truck. The cab is permanently connected to the cargo box.

• The maximum weight allowed is 53,141 pounds.
• Single Axle – 22,000 pounds
• Tandem Axle – 44,000 pounds
• Length – 14 feet

Tractor Semi-Trailer

A tractor semi-trailer is a cab with a trailer attached. These are the semi trucks that you typically see driving freight and cargo on the highway. The cab can separate from the trailer and drop it off at the delivery destination.

• Single Axle – 22,000 pounds
• Tandem Axle – 44,000 pounds
• Length – 51 feet
• Internal bridge 1 – 16 feet
• Internal bridge 2 – 40 feet

Tractor Tanker Semi-Trailer

This style of commercial truck uses a similar semi-cab as a tractor-trailer combo. However, instead of the trailer, it attaches to a large tank. These trucks haul milk, gasoline, and other large quantities of liquid.

• The maximum weight allowed is 73,271 pounds.
• Single Axle – 22,000 pounds
• Tandem Axle – 44,000 pounds
• Bridge Length – 36 feet

Truck Exceptions

Some exceptions to the maximum vehicle weight include dump trucks, concrete mixers, and waste collection vehicles. These vehicles’ sole purpose is to haul extremely heavy cargo. Because of this, special weight and size limits apply.

• Maximum Gross Weight – 70,000 pounds
• Maximum Weight on Front Axle – 14,520 pounds

Motor Carrier Size and Weight Program

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) follows the Motor Carrier Size and Weight Program (MCSAW) to enforce maximum weight limits. The weight enforcement program aims to protect Florida’s highways and bridges from damage.

Weigh Stations

Florida commercial truck weight limits are informed with the use of weigh stations. They are located throughout the state and are open 24/7. While there are some exceptions, all commercial trucks are required to stop at all weigh stations.

Commercial truck drivers who fail to stop when required can find themselves heavily fined.

Weigh-In-Motion Interstate-Based Weigh Stations

Modern weight stations use weight-in-motion systems. These are sensors placed on the road’s surface. As the truck drives over the sensors, they weigh the truck.

Trucks that are within an acceptable range are green-lighted. Trucks that fall outside of the threshold get red-flagged and pulled to the side for a more accurate weighing and inspection.

These sensors have sophisticated calibration. They can detect the axel spacing to determine the truck’s weight class correctly. Several of these weigh station systems are in place throughout the state.

• Flagler
• Madison
• Martin
• Pensacola
• Punta Gorda
• Seffner
• Sneads
• White Springs
• Wildwood
• Yulee

Static Station Non-Interstate Based Weigh Stations

Static weight stations are located on the side of interstate highways throughout Florida and other states. The truck pulls off the highway onto an access road. The driver pulls the truck onto the large-scale plates when it’s their turn.

This large weighing system determines the entire weight of the truck. Often, they inspect the rest of the truck during the weighing process.

• Hilliard
• Hopewell
• Lake City
• MacClenny
• Old Town
• Palatka
• Palm Coast
• Pensacola
• Plantation Key
• Yulee

Dangers of Overweight or Improperly Loaded Trucks

An improperly loaded commercial truck creates a high truck accident risk. This could be an overweight commercial truckload or improperly loaded cargo.

A commercial truck could roll over during sharp turns or in high wind. There is also a greater danger when navigating steep hills. Finally, emergency or sudden stopping becomes significantly harder.

Unfortunately, passenger vehicles can also suffer the consequences when these dangerous situations happen. Passenger vehicle drivers and passengers suffer increased property damage and injuries because of the significant size and weight difference.

Thankfully, some personal injury attorneys focus on helping victims of these trucking accidents. This involves recovery from physical injuries and property damage.

Commercial Truck Weight Enforcement

Florida’s commercial truck weight enforcement program helps to protect the roads and drivers. Overweight vehicles create unnecessary wear and tear and increase safety risks. If you have experienced a commercial truck accident, you may have a claim for recovery.

If you’ve experienced an accident involving a commercial truck, schedule a free consultation with one of our experienced attorneys.

How Fast Can Commercial Trucks Safely Travel On Florida Highways?

In 2020, 4,842 commercial trucks were involved in accidents resulting in fatalities. One of the most common reasons for a trucking accident is speeding. This could be the truck traveling faster than the posted speed limit or faster than the road conditions allow.

As a truck driver operating a large vehicle on Florida highways, you need to know what is a safe speed.

Florida Speed Limit Laws

Any vehicle, commercial or not that operates on Florida highways must follow the Florida speed statutes. In the state of Florida, the speed limit will never be more than 70 miles per hour. You will see this maximum speed limit on Florida highways and major toll roads.

However, not all areas of all highways and tolls are 70 miles per hour. Always look for a sign when entering the road to ensure you know the applicable speed limit.

Minimum Speed Law

There is also a minimum speed limit of 40 miles per hour. Traveling too slowly is just as dangerous as going too fast when driving on highways. Often, it isn’t the truck driver but a passenger vehicle traveling too slowly that causes a highway accident.

You won’t see specific commercial truck speed limits because all vehicles must follow the same speed laws. Truck drivers involved in accidents can speak with a truck accident lawyer. This helps them understand their rights and responsibilities.

Reasons a Commercial Truck Should Slow Down

Just because the speed limit states 70 miles per hour does not mean that a truck driver should always travel at that speed. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) recommends that drivers reduce their speed in certain circumstances.

• Traffic conditions
• Construction zones
• Conditions of low visibility
• Uneven roads or gravel roads
• Road conditions and road hazards, including debris
• Vehicle mechanical issues or failure
• On and off-highway exit ramps
• Curves, road bends, and sharp turns
• Hills and inclines
• Unfamiliar roads

If heavy traffic is on the highway, you may be unable to drive at the speed you want. The other traffic will dictate how fast you can travel. Despite multiple lanes, traffic can become heavy and block a truck’s ability to navigate the road.

Road conditions can also create a temporary hazard that requires traffic to reduce its speed. For example, construction, an accident, or debris on the road. These are all conditions that can be unpredictable but present a hazard.

Types of Accidents Caused by Speed

When traveling too fast, you reduce the time available for a response. Humans can only react so quickly, and this action time becomes longer when tired or distracted. Accidents can happen simply because you cannot act quickly enough for the speed traveled.

Mechanical Failure

Faster speeds come with additional heat. The faster the speed traveled, the more friction that gets created, and the more heat generated.

This increased heat puts more wear and tear on the truck. Engine failure or a tire blowout from the additional heat can cause an accident.

Loss of Control

High speeds make it more difficult to control a truck. Large commercial vehicles weigh tens of thousands of pounds. This is a lot of weight to control.

Combine that weight with forwarding motion, and you get a physical force that has more momentum than you can handle. Should you need to turn or stop quickly, the trailer will continue moving forward.

This could cause a rollover, jackknife, skidding, or swaying. All of these are extremely dangerous and can cause accidents.

Driving in Bad Weather

When the weather becomes bad, drivers should reduce their speed. This applies to commercial trucks just as it does to passenger cars. When visibility gets reduced, it becomes harder for a driver to see the road ahead.

This reduces reaction time and increases the risk of an accident. Florida also experiences high amounts of rain. Rainwater on the road mixes with the oil dropped by vehicles. The mixture creates a slick surface that reduces the traction of the rubber tires.

When there’s limited traction, stopping times increase. Drivers should reduce their speed to compensate for this. Otherwise, they risk getting into an accident because they didn’t have complete control of the truck at the speed they are traveling.

Night Driving

Even if the weather is clear, driving at night presents unique risks that require you to slow down. First, less light makes it harder to see the road ahead and reduces your available reaction time.

Second, headlights from oncoming traffic make it harder to see the road. Third, the night is when many wild animals become active. Should a large animal venture onto the highway, it can create a risk of an accident.

Driving late at night can also make drivers more drowsy and less alert than they would be during the day. This slows their response time and increases the risk of an accident.

Commercial Truck Speed Limiters

In order to ensure safe travel, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) announced earlier this year its intent to move forward with rules enforcing speed limiters on heavy commercial trucks. The goal would be to enforce speed limit laws by not allowing large trucks to travel over a predetermined speed.

Hold Commercial Trucks Accountable

Just like passenger vehicles, commercial trucks can cause accidents. However, if speed is the reason for the accident, the damage and injuries can become significantly greater. As a truck driver, knowing your rights and protecting yourself from accident claims is important.

Speaking with an experienced personal injury lawyer can help you understand your rights. They may also be able to secure compensation for your loss.

How to Calculate a Medical Malpractice Settlement

Around 20,000 medical malpractice claims are filed every year in the United States. Each of these claims seeks justice for suffering and damages caused by medical negligence.

While a successful claim won’t reverse the damage that has been done, it can provide valuable compensation. A successful claim will result in a settlement or a judgment following a jury verdict, which can provide financial stability as you adjust to life after your injuries.

Knowing what you can claim in your medical malpractice settlement will ensure that you get a fair deal if your case is successful. So how do you calculate a medical malpractice settlement? Read on to find out everything you need to know.

What is Medical Malpractice?

Medical malpractice is also known as medical negligence.

This occurs when a medical professional fails to provide a good standard of care to their patients. This can directly harm patients in their care.

If you have suffered harm as a result of medical negligence then you could have a medical malpractice case.

When you make a claim, a time will come when you will need to consider a potential settlement amount. This is the amount of compensation that you are seeking for your injuries.

In that case, you will need to carefully calculate how much compensation you want for your injuries. This must be based on the impact that your injuries have had on your life, as well as many other factors.

With that in mind, let’s take a closer look at how to calculate your medical malpractice settlement figure.

Calculating Your Medical Malpractice Settlement

Settlement laws in Florida used to set a $500,000 cap on medical malpractice cases in Florida.

However, now there is arguably no cap for medical malpractice claims so, in theory, you can make a claim for as much as you want. However, the settlement you ask for should reflect the severity of your injuries and their impact on your life.

Because of this, each medical malpractice settlement is unique. So to calculate an accurate settlement you and your lawyers will need to examine to main areas:

1. Economic damages of your injuries (now and in the future)
2. Non-Economic damages of your injuries (now and in the future)

When calculating your claim it is essential to think about how your injuries might impact your life in the future as well as how they impacted you in the past.

Once you have accepted a settlement you cannot revise this figure or make another claim for your case in the future. Thinking about the long-term impact of your case and figuring out your needs will ensure you get a fair settlement.

Economic Damages (Special Damages)

Economic damages in your medical malpractice case focus on how your injuries have affected you financially. This might include:

• Surgery or treatment to repair the damage caused by medical malpractice
• On-going treatment or medication for chronic issues caused by your injuries
• Specialist equipment that you need for treatment or in daily life
• Hiring live-in care

Managing your injuries alone can cost thousands of dollars and this can all be included in your claim settlement.

Your injuries may also affect your ability to work now and in the future. This can have a huge impact on your financial stability for years to come. So you can also include lost income in your economic damages.

Non-Economic Damages (General Damages)

Non-economic damages look at the way your injuries have affected your life in a wider sense.

This can include pain and suffering or damage to your personal relationships. To prove these kinds of damages, your lawyer may ask for testimony from your loved ones or a professional psychologist.

Of course, it is harder to put pinpoint the exact value of these damages. Once you have gathered everything you want to claim, lawyers will look at comparable cases and their settlements. They can use these to find a realistic figure for your claim.

What is the Average Settlement For a Medical Malpractice Claim?

The average medical malpractice settlement for an out-of-court case in America is $242,000. Taking your case to court can be risky and will cost you more.

The amount that you can expect as a malpractice settlement depends on many factors including, the amount of available insurance coverage and the severity of your injuries.

Minor Medical Malpractice Cases

Minor cases don’t tend to have a long-term impact on your life. However, they can still cause serious discomfort and distress.

These cases can include resolved allergic reactions or shots that were administered incorrectly. Settlements for these cases are generally much lower than significant medical malpractice cases.

Cases Resulting in Short-Term Disabilities or Illnesses

Short-term disabilities or illnesses last for up to six months. After this, you should have recovered without your injuries having an impact on your long-term health.

Common causes of short-term disabilities can include misdiagnoses or missed diagnoses. They can also include minor prenatal errors or minor surgical mistakes.

The average settlement for these kinds of cases is higher than minor medical malpractice cases but lower than cases that require surgery or result in permanent injuries.

Cases That Require Surgery or Rehab

Some medical malpractice injuries will require serious intervention. If you have to have surgery to correct an error or attend rehab, you could be awarded a significant settlement commensurate with the amount of your injuries.

Medical Malpractice Cases With Long-Term Consequences

Severe medical malpractice cases can result in serious injuries, illness, or infections, as well as pain and suffering. This goes on for six months or more and may require ongoing treatment.

Cases involving severe medical malpractice can be awarded substantial settlements depending on the severity of the injuries.

Cases Resulting in Permanent Injuries

Unfortunately, some medical malpractice injuries will be permanent. The most serious cases result in permanent disabilities. Wrongful death suits can also be included in this area of medical malpractice.

These kinds of cases can be awarded settlements of $1,000,000 or more. So far, the largest medical malpractice settlement in US history is $229,000,000. This was awarded to a mother whose baby suffered brain damage during childbirth after the hospital failed to monitor her.

As you can see, calculating your medical malpractice settlement depends a lot on the severity of your injuries and how they impact your life. Your figure can account for a range of damage caused by your injuries. So you don’t just have to focus on their financial impact.

Is it Illegal to Eat While Driving in Florida?

Distracted driving isn’t just fiddling with the radio. More than 3,100 Americans were killed due to distracted drivers in 2020 alone.

Most people assume that these accidents had to do with cell phones. Many of them did.

But thousands of distracted driving accidents occur every year because the driver is eating while they are driving. If you eat while driving, you need to know about the dangers that simple action can cause.

Is it illegal to eat while driving? Can eating in your car affect your odds of winning a civil case? What should you do to stay safe while driving on Florida roads?

Answer these questions and you can become a smart and focused driver in no time. Here is your quick guide.

Florida Traffic Laws

There is no law specifically against eating while driving. Distracted driving laws apply to driving with an electronic device or cell phone in your car, not food or drinks.

However, other traffic laws may impact you. Section 316.1925 of the Florida Statutes applies to careless driving. Any person who operates a car in a way that endangers someone else’s life and property can be cited for a moving violation. If your food distracts you and causes you to speed or swerve, you may receive a careless driving citation.

Section 316.192 applies to reckless driving. This occurs when a driver operates their vehicle with “willful or wanton disregard for the safety of persons or property.”

If you take your hands off the wheel to hold your food or if you look away from the road, you may crash your car and receive a reckless driving charge. A first-time conviction of reckless driving can lead to a prison sentence of up to 90 days, even if you don’t hurt anyone.

Civil Liability

Florida is a comparative negligence state. This means that someone can claim damages from you based on how much responsibility you bear for the accident. Even if the other driver was mostly at fault, they can receive some money from you.

The plaintiff can build a strong auto accident case against you using surveillance footage and eyewitnesses. They can show you were looking at your food or had your hand off the wheel when the accident happened. This may be enough evidence to establish fault.

The worse the car accident is, the more money you may need to pay. Juries can give money to plaintiffs based on their pain and suffering.

They can also assign damages based on lost income, mental health problems, and vehicle damage. Damages can total thousands of dollars, even if the collision was a complete accident.

Insurance companies will also look at your degree of fault in an accident. If they find out you were eating while driving, they can deny you a claim for compensation, forcing you to pay out of pocket.

Tips to Avoid Problems

You should avoid all types of distracted driving, including eating while driving. The key to being an attentive driver is to eliminate all sources of distractions. You should follow several steps simultaneously so there is no chance that food distracts you.

Pull Over to Eat

When you need to eat, you should pull your car over. Park in a parking lot or in a roadside parking spot and eat there.

Turn your vehicle off so there is no chance of your car moving while you are eating. You can step outside your car or remain inside to eat, though you may want to sit in the passenger seat so a police officer doesn’t think you are idling.

You should also pull over to have a beverage, as drinks can be as distracting as food. Never drink alcohol inside your car, even if the car is off and you are not driving. Carrying an open container of alcohol in your car is a criminal offense in Florida.

Do Not Keep Food in Your Car

You are more likely to eat while driving when there is food in your car. While you are driving in Florida, you should keep food out of arm’s reach. Do not put any snacks in your glove box, side compartments, or cup holders.

If you are bringing home groceries, you should put them in the back seat or trunk instead of in the passenger seat. Store your items in coolers so they are harder to access.

Do Not Drive While You Are Hungry

Though you should not drive while you are eating, you should also not drive while you are hungry. Hunger can be as distracting as food, and significant hunger can cause lightheadedness and drowsiness.

Eat a big meal before you start driving. Try to eat foods that are high in protein and whole grains, as they burn slowly and keep you full for a long period of time.

Nut and fruit mixes offer protein with healthy sugars that create energy for hours. You can also eat a meat sandwich with whole wheat bread.

Can You Eat While Driving?

You take a big risk when you eat while driving. There is no law against it.

But food can take your eyes off the road, leading to a careless driving or reckless driving charge. Food can increase your fault percentage for the accident, driving up how much money you need to pay in a civil case. Always pull over to eat or drink, and eat something before you get behind the wheel.

If you get into an accident, you need a smart lawyer to avoid damages and charges. RHINO Lawyers serves Florida residents. Contact us today.

Is There a Cap on Medical Malpractice Damages?

Medical malpractice cases are taking Florida by storm. Between 2009 and 2019, Florida doctors paid more than $460 million to settle malpractice claims.

You could be entitled to a significant recovery based on your negligent doctor’s mistakes. Yet you can’t just file a lawsuit and expect to win big. Medical malpractice lawsuits require extensive knowledge of the laws, including those that may impose caps on medical damages.

Do Florida laws impose limitations on malpractice damages? How do you prove that you experienced an act of malpractice? What documents do you need to prove economic and non-economic damages?

Answer these questions and we may be able to file a medical malpractice case on your behalf. Here is your quick guide.

Florida Malpractice Laws

In medical negligence claims, plaintiffs can claim money from defendants based on their economic losses and non-economic losses. Economic losses are past and future medical expenses and lost wages. Non-economic losses are based on pain, suffering, inconvenience, and the loss of enjoyment of life.

Florida Statute 766.118 imposed a limitation on non-economic damages. Most cases were capped at $500,000. Cases involving death or permanent vegetative state could have non-economic damages of up to $1 million.

However, a Florida Supreme Court case concluded this limitation was unconstitutional. The statute is still technically on the books. But arguably, there is no current cap on non-economic damages in medical malpractice cases at this time.

The Florida House of Representatives tried to pass a new law with caps in 2019. The law died in committee. Yet the law may be introduced again in another session, so you should follow the news to see if it will affect your case.

Keep in mind that each state has its own malpractice laws. Some states impose a cap on non-economic damages while others impose a cap on all damages. Talk to a lawyer in your state for more details.

Proving Malpractice

The striking down of the cap on medical damages can help the damages in your case, but you still need to provide proof of your malpractice claims. You must meet several legal requirements in order to win your case.

You must prove that the defendant violated a standard of care. Examples, include misdiagnosing you or causing an unnecessary injury during a medical procedure.

You can ask a medical professional to testify for you and describe in detail how the doctor made a mistake.

Causation is proof that the defendant caused your injury. You can use paperwork from the hospital to show that they were in charge of your surgery or medication. If you are suing multiple people, you need to provide evidence of causation for each defendant.

Your injuries must be unnecessary based on the treatment you received. Many people experience bleeding or bruising after surgery, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that there was malpractice.

But nerve damage and long-term mobility problems can be unnecessary, and you could potentially sue based on them. You must provide your medical records to your lawyer, who will work to hire the appropriate expert medical professionals to support your claims.

Proving Economic Damages

Economic damages may be very easy to prove. To show how much you spent on your medical expenses, you can provide your hospital bills and receipts.

You can claim money based on ongoing treatments, including rehabilitative therapy. You can use bills and expense paperwork from your therapist or personal doctor to show how much you are paying.

If you suffered a mental health problem due to the malpractice, you can claim money for your mental health treatment. You must prove a direct link between the malpractice and your health problem, which you can do through an expert witness. You should then provide receipts or bills related to your treatment.

To prove lost wages, you can use tax forms, pay stubs, and time cards. You can also ask your boss to testify on your behalf, explaining how your injuries have affected your work performance.

Asserting Non-economic Damages

Non-economic damages are hard to quantify. The key is to be specific with your claim and attach your claim to your physical condition.

You should be able to clearly describe how your physical problems have impacted your ability to live your life to the fullest. Physical pain may make it harder for you to sleep, walk, or eat. You may be unable to attend to your family or friends because you are struggling with your symptoms.

Create a picture of your life before the malpractice and after. Make it clear that your life has changed significantly since the incident and that you need compensation to return to your previous standard of living. You can describe how you will use the money to reach the stage of maximum medical improvement.

Your loved ones can also help. They should describe their loss of companionship and their anxiety over their physical and mental health.

The Basics of Malpractice Laws and Caps

Malpractice laws are always evolving. Florida laws did cap non-economic damages, but the cap arguably no longer exists. There has never been a cap in Florida on economic damages.

You still need to prove that your doctor was negligent and that you can claim specific damages. Your lawyer will hire an expert witness who can describe your injuries and your doctor’s mistake. Use your medical bills, receipts, and work stubs to show how much money you lost.

What Constitutes as Medical Malpractice in Florida?

Medical malpractice is sweeping across America. Roughly one in three doctors will be sued at least once during their careers.

Medical negligence can lead to lifelong consequences, including chronic pain and disability. Yet pursuing a Florida medical malpractice case can get you the money you need for recovery. The key is to understand what conditions you need to meet.

What do Florida malpractice laws say you need to prove? What are some common examples of malpractice cases? How can you use medical paperwork to build a case for yourself?

Answer these questions and you can develop strong cases against negligent doctors. Here is your quick guide.

Misdiagnosis

A misdiagnosis can occur when a doctor diagnoses a patient with the wrong condition. Many conditions have similar symptoms, and doctors can mistake one condition for another one.

Treatments can cause medical problems. For example, if you receive cancer treatment when you don’t have cancer, you may develop dangerous side effects from that inappropriate treatment.

Your doctor may also not diagnose you at all. They may tell you your symptoms are in your head and your disease may progress until you develop irrecoverable complications.

Florida Statute 766.102 describes some of the prerequisites needed to bring a medical malpractice case. You must assert that you sustained an injury caused by the misdiagnosis. This injury cannot be a foreseeable result of a medical procedure but must be caused by negligence.

You must show that your doctor acted in an improper or unskilled way. For example, a doctor who fails to run additional tests may have acted improperly if additional tests could indicate what condition you have.

You have two years to file your malpractice claim. It begins when you knew or should have known of potential negligence. So you should start gathering evidence, like your medical records, as soon as possible.

Misread Laboratory Tests

Your doctor may misread the results of your laboratory tests. They may tell you you tested positive for a disease when you actually tested negative. This can lead to treatments that may be harmful or unnecessary.

They may tell you you tested negative when you were positive. You may not receive treatment in a timely fashion, causing your disease to progress.

Doctors may also confuse your results with another person’s results. A blood vial may be mislabeled, or two people with similar names may get confused with each other.

You should consider whether you should file your malpractice claim against the lab technician. They may have botched the test or mislabeled your results. Contact an attorney who can interview witnesses and investigate what happened.

Inaccurate Medical History

A doctor may ask you questions about your medical history. This helps them establish if you have a pre-existing condition or a history of similar symptoms.

If a doctor does not ask you these questions, you may have a claim. Their failure to ask you medical questions may result in you getting treated for a condition you don’t have. You may have a genetic disorder that would have been revealed if they had asked you about your parents’ health.

It is okay if you cannot answer certain questions. The doctor or a nurse should go and look at your medical records to see what is going on. If they fail to do so and they administer improper treatments, you could potentially file a lawsuit.

You may be able to file a suit against a previous doctor if they placed inaccurate information in your file. You should get copies of the medical documents with the mistakes in them. A lawyer should research how these mistakes may have impacted your medical treatment over time.

Surgical Mistakes

Surgical mistakes are what many people think about when they hear about medical lawsuits. Surgeons can operate on the wrong parts of the body, causing devastating injuries.

The surgery they perform may be correct, but the surgeon may make a mistake. They may cut deep into your body, causing excessive bleeding. They may sever a nerve or muscle, which can lead to pain and mobility problems.

During surgery, you may experience bleeding, a high heart rate, or difficulty breathing. The surgeon and their team should monitor you for these problems. If they don’t and you experience complications, you may have a strong case.

The key is to identify who exactly made the mistake. A surgeon may cut in the wrong place, but they have been told by another doctor where to cut. They may read a medical document that’s incorrect, so you could sue the person who made the document.

Skipped Follow-up Procedures

Even if the procedure goes fine, you may experience problems during the aftercare. After surgery, you may suffer from an infection.

Some infections are preventable, and you have a case if the surgeon failed to clean your wound properly. You can also sue a nurse or doctor who did not give you antibiotics if indicated.

After you go home, you may receive medication to soothe your pain. But you may get the wrong medication, or you may experience side effects that delay your recovery. You can claim damages for this, especially if your medication caused you to miss work.

You can sue a physical or occupational therapist for hurting you during recovery therapy. Ask your doctor to write a document explaining what your treatment should be and why they asked you to get therapy.

The Essentials of Florida Medical Malpractice

A Florida medical malpractice case requires a few things. You must prove an injury that comes directly from a mistake by your care provider. The mistake must be significant enough to violate the standard of care and cause you injury.

Medical malpractice cases can be complex and require significant investigation by knowledgeable lawyers.

How to Recognize the Signs of Vestibular Dysfunction After a Car Crash

Did you know that nearly 4.8 million people were seriously hurt in an auto collision in 2020? Car accidents are no joke and the aftermath could be devastating. So, if you’ve been in a car crash, there’s a good chance that you may experience vestibular dysfunction. Fortunately, most cases of vestibular dysfunction are temporary and improve over time.

However, if you experience any lasting symptoms, it’s important to speak with a car accident lawyer. They can help you get compensation for your injuries and pain and suffering. With that said, take a look below to learn more about recognizing the signs of vestibular dysfunction.

What Is Vestibular Dysfunction?

To better understand the signs of vestibular dysfunction, it helps to know what it is. The vestibular system—located in the inner ear—consists of the vestibular nerve and a series of fluid-filled canals. These canals help us to maintain our balance and coordinate our eye movements.

Vestibular dysfunction occurs when there is a problem with one or more of these components. There are several vestibular dysfunction symptoms to recognize, which include:

Dizziness

Dizziness is one of the most common signs of vestibular dysfunction. They describe it as a feeling of lightheadedness, unsteadiness, or wooziness. You may feel like you’re spinning, tilting, or that the room is moving.

The changes in your head position triggers dizziness, such as when you turn over in bed or stand up from a chair. Vestibular dysfunction can also cause nausea and vomiting.

Feeling Imbalanced

Vestibular dysfunction can make you feel unsteady on your feet. You may have difficulty walking or standing up. You may also feel like you’re swaying, tilting, or that the ground is moving.

Problems with Coordination

Vestibular dysfunction can affect your coordination. You may have trouble walking. That’s because vestibular dysfunction causes problems with your sense of depth perception. You may have difficulty reading or writing.

Ringing in the Ears (Tinnitus)

Vestibular dysfunction can cause a ringing or roaring sound in your ears (tinnitus). Not only that, but you might experience muffled hearing.

Changes in Vision

Vestibular dysfunction can cause problems with your vision. You might see flashes of light or floaters. Chances are, your eyes will feel dry and irritated, and you may have trouble focusing your eyes as well.

Disorientation

Vestibular dysfunction can cause a sense of disorientation or confusion. Due to disorientation, you could feel like you’re in a dream or that you’re not really in control of your body.

Fatigue

Vestibular dysfunction can cause fatigue. This is because vestibular problems can make it difficult to focus and pay attention. You may also have trouble sleeping.

The Types of Vestibular Disorder

There are two types of vestibular disorder: peripheral vestibular disorder and central vestibular disorder. Peripheral vestibular disorder is caused by a problem with the vestibular nerve or the inner ear. This type of vestibular disorder is more common in older adults.

Central vestibular disorder is caused by a problem in the central nervous system. It’s prominent in young adults.

However, the most common vestibular disorder is vestibular neuritis. It’s caused by an inflammation of the vestibular nerve.

Causes of Vestibular Disorder

There are numerous causes of vestibular disorder. Here are a few of them:

Infection

Vestibular disorders can be caused by infections, such as vestibular neuritis. Other infections that can cause vestibular disorders include meningitis, vestibular toxoplasmosis, and vestibular migraines.

Autoimmune Disorders

Autoimmune disorders can trigger vestibular disorders, such as vestibular paroxysmia and vestibular migraine. These conditions occur when the body’s immune system attacks healthy cells.

Trauma

Head injuries, such as concussions, can lead to vestibular disorders. The vestibular disorder can also be caused by whiplash, which is a neck injury. Vestibular Disorder often develops as a result of a crash and whiplash is a common injury that occurs during car accidents.

Tumors

Tumors, such as vestibular schwannomas and vestibular paragangliomas, can lead to vestibular disorders. Since tumors can compress the vestibular nerve, they may trigger vestibular neuritis.

Vestibular Dysfunction Treatment

Treatment for vestibular disorder depends on the underlying cause. For vestibular neuritis, treatment typically includes rehabilitation and medications to relieve symptoms. For a vestibular migraine, vestibular rehabilitation and medications are provided to prevent the migraines.

If an autoimmune disorder triggers the vestibular disorder. Then they give medications and vestibular rehabilitation to suppress the immune system. On the other hand, if a tumor caused the vestibular disorder, treatment usually involves rehab and surgery to remove the tumor.

As for treatment methods, vestibular rehabilitation is a type of physical therapy that helps to retrain the vestibular system. The exercises can help to improve balance and reduce dizziness.

Medications used to treat vestibular disorder include vestibular suppressants and vestibular sedatives. The vestibular suppressants reduce symptoms, and the vestibular sedatives calm the vestibular system.

Also, surgery is an option for vestibular disorders caused by tumors that are treatable with rehab or medications. Surgery helps to improve vestibular symptoms by removing the underlying cause.

If you think you may have vestibular dysfunction, it’s important to see a doctor. This condition is debilitating, but it’s treatable. With the proper medical care, you can improve your vestibular symptoms and live a normal life.

Can Insurance Companies Use Private Investigators to Deny Claims?

Even though car insurance companies exist to cover the cost of vehicle repairs and any injuries, that coverage also comes with certain requirements. When a drunk driver hits you, you need to document the accident and report it through the proper channels. If you’re lucky, the other driver will admit fault and file a claim.

However, their insurance company may look for any reason to reject a claim and avoid paying out. One way they do this is by hiring private investigators to look into the other party and their situation.

How legal is it for an insurance company to use a private investigator? And what would that investigator look for?

Can an Insurance Company Use a Private Investigator?

Car insurance companies will often use various strategies in order to avoid paying certain claims, especially when they’re higher in value. One of the ways they go about finding a reason to deny a claim is by hiring private investigators.

Technically speaking, there’s nothing illegal about hiring a private investigator. Any person can go to an associated agency and hire one for any of their purposes, such as looking into a distrustful spouse or finding dirt on a business partner. The same rules apply to an insurance company.

Insurers will claim that their use of an investigator is solely to prevent fraud. In reality, they’re also looking for something to weaken or challenge a victim’s case.

On the one hand, hiring an investigator feels like they’re overstepping some kind of professional boundary. However, investigators are limited in what they can legally do.

What Private Investigators Look For

A private investigator isn’t going to necessarily analyze every single aspect of your life. After all, there are some boundaries they cannot cross without breaking the law. In the case of a vehicle insurance claim, they want to find anything that could put you at fault or invalidate your claim.

Some of the red flags they want to find include a history of filing claims, no police report, and delayed reporting.

A history of filing claims shows that you may know how to take advantage of the system in your favor. No police report may prove that there was no accident or that it wasn’t serious enough to warrant any kind of police involvement. The same goes for delayed reporting.

In addition, a private investigator will look for anything that discredits you as a person. That may be a history of alcoholism, mental illness, or anything else that paints you in a negative image. They’ll of course, also see if your vehicle’s damage matches the claim.

What a Private Investigator Can and Can’t Do

Movies and television shows often mislead people into thinking that private investigators operate under different rules than everyone else. It’s not uncommon to see them breaking into apartments or hacking into someone’s electronic devices. However, all of that is an illegal activity and fictional behavior.

Private investigators are bound to the same exact laws as any other ordinary citizen. They are not officers of the law, nor are they given any kind of special privileges in their line of work.

A private investigator cannot make arrests. They are not allowed to spy on people in the privacy of their homes or trespass on their property. At no point can they hack into a private account or illegally gain access to someone else’s devices or information.

What an investigator can do is watch people in public and take photos of them as part of their investigation. Depending on the state, they can record audio conversations with or without the other party’s consent.

While they can’t hack into your private accounts, they are free to monitor and watch your public online activity, such as your social media accounts.

How to Protect Your Claim

There are some ways to protect your claim before and after it’s filed. Even wearing a seatbelt can make a huge difference, as it may show negligence on your part.

One way to protect yourself is by using a dashboard camera. At the very least, it can show that you’re not at fault in an accident, even if it doesn’t prove the other person is completely responsible.

To protect yourself after an accident, make sure to follow all the proper procedures. File a police report, follow your doctor’s orders, and be cautious on social media.

A police report shows accountability. If your doctor orders you to limit physical activity, going against those orders can make it seem like you weren’t as injured as you initially claimed.

You also don’t want to post anything on social media that could be used against you. For example, a friend may post photos of you at a party shortly after suffering a devastating accident. This could be used against you by the insurance company.

What to Do if an Insurance Company Denied a Claim

There’s always the chance that the insurance company’s private investigators find something that they use to deny your claim. However, you still have options available if it comes to that.

First of all, try to get the basis for the claim denial in writing. If they don’t provide a letter, then ask for one. Based on their reasoning, you may be able to provide additional evidence.

Next, you can file an appeal through your car insurance company.

If all else fails, you can contact a car accident lawyer. These lawyers are experienced in this field and can help you fight this decision or otherwise get compensation from the opposing party.

Defend Against Private Investigators

You may run into all kinds of trouble when an insurance company hires private investigators. They can get access to information that may convince the company to reject a claim. Whether or not the information was acquired legally is also up for debate.

In either case, RHINO Lawyers can help you after a car accident. Our clients work directly with an attorney and only pay after we win your case. Contact us to set up a free video consultation and to tell us more about your situation.

What Should You Do if Hit While Driving Someone Else’s Car?

What should you do if you borrow someone else’s car and get into an accident? Whose insurance is responsible for damages or injuries?

Knowing the steps to take if you’re ever in this situation is essential. That’s why we’ve put together a list of what you need to do if borrowing someone else’s car turns into an accident.

You don’t want to be caught off guard in this type of situation, so make sure you read our guide on what to do if you get hit while driving someone else’s car. It could save you a lot of time and hassle down the road.

If you’re in an accident while driving someone else’s car, there are a few key things you’ll need to do to protect yourself and the vehicle owner. Here’s what to expect and what to do:

What to Do if You Wreck While Driving Someone Else’s Car

If you’ve ever been in an accident, the protocol is the same. However, driving someone else’s car does add an extra layer of complexity to the situation.

Stay Calm

You first need to pull over to a safe spot, turn off the car, and check to see if everyone is okay. Then take time to assess the damage to the vehicle.

Call the Police

Florida requires you to call the police if there are injuries or property damage. They will create a car accident report, and you will need to get a copy. Cooperate with the police investigation but don’t admit fault.

Exchange Information With the Other Driver

You should also exchange insurance information with the other driver. In most cases, the car owner will have insurance that will cover you in the event of an accident.

Take Photos of the Crash Scene and Any Damages

If you have a camera phone, take pictures of the damages to both cars and any skid marks or debris from the accident. These photos can be helpful when filing an insurance claim.

Notify the Car Owner

Now is the time to call the car’s owner and tell them what happened. They will likely need to file an insurance claim, so having all the information on hand will be helpful.

Notify Your Own Insurance Company

If you have your own insurance, you will need to notify them of the accident. They may or may not cover you, depending on your policy.

Contact an Attorney

If you were injured in the accident or think you may be at fault, it’s a good idea to get in touch with an experienced car accident lawyer. They’ll help you navigate the legal process and ensure that you get compensation.

Florida Insurance Laws

Florida has statutes that make it a no-fault insurance state. That means each driver’s insurance pays for their own damages and injuries, regardless of who is at fault for the accident. So even if the accident was your fault, the other driver’s insurance should cover their damages.

PIP Coverage

All drivers in Florida are required to have a personal injury protection (PIP) policy. This type of insurance will cover your medical bills and some of your lost wages, no matter who is at fault for the accident.

What That Means For You

So if you are in a collision while borrowing your grandma’s car, her insurance should cover you. Your PIP policy will kick in if she doesn’t have insurance. However, you may be on the hook for any damages and injuries if you don’t have a PIP policy.

Here’s Where It Gets Complicated

So as far as insurance is concerned, driving someone else’s car is pretty simple.

But what if the accident was your fault, and somebody got hurt?

Even though Florida is a no-fault insurance state, you can still get sued for damages if the other driver thinks you were at fault for the accident. And if they have injuries that exceed their PIP coverage, they may come after you for compensation.

The other party may file a personal injury suit against you for the following reasons:

• Fatality
• Loss of limbs
• Permanent scarring or disfigurement
• Permanent disability
• Significant or permanent injuries

That means that even if you weren’t driving your own car, you could still be on the hook for a lot of money if somebody gets hurt in an accident that was your fault.

So what can you do to protect yourself?

The best way to protect yourself is to have good car insurance. That way, if you do get sued, your insurance company will help you out. But once you find yourself in this situation, you’ll need a good car insurance lawyer.

How a Lawyer Will Help With a Car Accident Case

A lawyer can help you determine if you’re actually at fault for the accident. They can also deal with insurance companies to get the best settlement possible. If you do end up getting sued, a lawyer will be able to help you defend yourself in court.

Lesiones personales

Suppose the accident was your fault and somebody gets hurt. In that case, a lawyer can help you navigate the personal injury claims process. And if you get sued for damages, a lawyer can help you defend yourself in court.

Insurance Negotiation

Sometimes there’s a bit of back and forth between insurance companies. If the accident wasn’t your fault, but the other driver’s insurance company is giving you a hard time, call a lawyer. They can help you negotiate with them.

Car Accident Lawyers in Florida

So if you’re driving someone else’s car, having good PIP insurance is a good idea. And if you’re in an accident, don’t hesitate to contact a lawyer. They can help you figure out what to do next and protect your rights.

Your car accident case is in good hands with RHINO Lawyers! We can help you navigate the legal process and get the compensation you deserve. If you’ve been in an accident while driving someone else’s car, contact RHINO Lawyers for help.
