Florida Accident & Injury Lawyers

Types of Cases Our Crestview Personal Injury Attorneys Handle

The Crestview personal injury lawyers at Michles & Booth have a proven record of success in a wide range of cases
  • Because of the sheer size and weight of commercial trucks, a collision can seriously injure the occupants of cars and smaller trucks. Accident victims who bring claims against commercial trucking companies can feel overpowered. Our Crestview truck accident lawyers have the experience and resources needed to take on these companies and their insurance carriers, fighting for full compensation for victims of truck accidents
  • Our Crestview accident lawyers know that insurance companies and juries are often biased against people who are injured while riding motorcycles. However, motorcyclists are particularly vulnerable on Florida Panhandle roads. With these challenges in mind, we will fight aggressively for your right to compensation.
  • Pedestrians are at serious risk of injury when drivers are negligent. If you are a pedestrian who has been hit by a car or other vehicle, our Crestview attorneys can help you seek compensation for your injuries.
  • The laws and regulations regarding taxis and rideshare vehicles are constantly evolving. When you have been injured in an accident involving an Uber, Lyft, or taxi driver, count on our attorneys to stand confident in this shifting legal environment.

    We will investigate the accident to determine who is liable — the driver, the rideshare company, or another party — and pursue them for the full extent of your losses.
  • As the popularity of cycling increases in the Florida Panhandle, so do bicycle accidents. If you are injured in a bicycle accident caused by a negligent driver, our Crestview attorneys will fight to protect your rights.
  • Were you hurt on the job? Do not risk your claim being denied. Our workers’ compensation attorneys want you to understand your rights to medical care and lost wages. We will handle the often confusing paperwork needed to navigate your claim, and stand up to the insurance companies that try to deny or minimize your benefits.
  • If a negligent healthcare provider has harmed you, you deserve justice. With a medical doctor on our staff, we have the advantage when negotiating with malpractice insurers and presenting cases in front of juries. We will review your records and determine whether the standard of care was breached. If it was, our Crestview medical malpractice lawyers will take on your fight
  • If a disability makes it impossible for you to work, we can help. Our SSDI lawyers understand the often adversarial process of qualifying for benefits. We know the Social Security Administration’s strict requirements and can help you build a strong case, advocating for your right to financial security.
  • The loss of a loved one is devastating, especially when it is caused by the negligent or reckless actions of another. If you have lost a family member due to a fatal accident in Crestview, turn to us for help seeking justice and the financial support you deserve. Our wrongful death attorneys want to explain your rights, discuss your options, and fight for your family's best interests

FAQs About Personal Injury Cases in Crestview, Florida

  • How much does it cost to hire a personal injury lawyer in Crestview?

    At Michles & Booth, we work on a contingency fee basis for personal injury cases. This means that you pay us nothing upfront, and we only get paid if we successfully recover compensation for you. You can rest assured that we are fully invested in achieving the best possible outcome in your case.

  • What types of damages can I recover in a Crestview personal injury case?

    Many personal injury lawsuits result in the plaintiff being awarded two types of damages:

    • Economic damages: These are quantifiable financial losses, such as medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, and future earning capacity.
    • Non-economic damages: These compensate for intangible losses, like pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life, and disfigurement.

    Our Crestview personal injury attorneys work to identify all of your economic losses, both past and future. And when we seek non-economic damages, we will gather strong evidence to demonstrate the full impact of your injury.

  • What should I do if I have been injured in an accident in Crestview?

    Here are four crucial steps to take after an accident:

    1. Seek medical attention immediately: Your health and well-being are paramount.
    2. Report the accident to the police: This creates an official record of the incident.
    3. Gather evidence: If possible, take photos of the accident scene, your injuries, and any property damage.
    4. Contact a Crestview personal injury lawyer: Do not speak to insurance adjusters before seeking legal advice.

    We offer free consultations, so do not hesitate to reach out to Michles & Booth as soon as possible.
