Representing Injured Workers Worldwide Since 1996

Car Accident Lawyers

Each year, between 20 and 50 million people suffer car accident injuries. Some drivers and/or passengers suffer debilitating injuries that can leave you disabled and in pain for years and sometimes for life.

The worst part is that many of these injured motorists were not responsible for the crash — but they have to live with the consequences. 

While nothing can take away the pain and suffering car accident victims may face, monetary compensation can make it easier. This is especially true if victims are unable to work for a time — or permanently — after the accident. High medical and rehabilitative care bills can also be a heavy burden that proper compensation can ease.

If you have been injured in a car accident you need the expert services of the car accident attorneys at The Law Offices of Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco, P.A. With our experience, we know how to win car accident cases and get you the compensation you deserve.

Potential Damages You Can Collect

If you have been injured in a car accident that was not your fault, you may be entitled to compensation. Depending on the extent of your injuries, you may face steep medical bills and lose time at work, which translates to lost wages.

None of that is your fault and it is only fair that you be compensated for it.

Potential damages you can collect include:

  • Medical bills
  • Physical therapy bills
  • Lost wages
  • Car repair bills
  • Pain and suffering

Why Should You Hire a Miami Car Accident Lawyer?

Insurance companies are notorious for trying to shift as much of the blame to you as possible and to lower the amount of their insured driver’s exposure. This can be very emotionally taxing, especially considering the fact that a car accident victim is often also facing physical and mental trauma of the accident caused by the insured driver’s negligence. For that reason, you should not face this legal battle alone. You need a strong lawyer who will stand up to the insurance company and fight for your rights to maximize your recovery. We are the lawyers you need!

Hiring a car accident lawyer allows you to focus on what is most important: your health and well-being. The qualified car accident attorneys at The Law Offices of Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco, P.A. know how to beat insurance companies at their own game and fight for the maximum compensation value.
