“Accident Case”
Goldstein, Buckley, Cechman, Rice and Purtz, PA was the only law firm who would take our car accident case. Andrea Pleimling Smith was very thorough, explained everything in a very detailed fashion, and was easy to reach when questions arose. She kept us informed every step of the way. Without her, we would have suffered a severe financial loss due to an accident which was not our fault. Florida’s No Fault law is terrible and very unfair. Andrea and her team were very helpful in recouping all of the money we were required to spend!

Were you hurt from a fall and have questions about slip and fall case timeline? Watch this video to learn how long a case can take in Florida.
Question:
How long is it going to take to resolve my slip and fall injury claim in Southwest Florida?
Answer:
The amount of time that it can take to resolve your slip and fall injury claim in Florida can really vary. Sometimes an insurance company will come right away to the table and they’ll want to get the case settled. We’ve had clients who were able to settle the case within two to three months after the accident happens, but that’s really a rarity. More likely than not, you’ll have to go through a few months process of getting your medical treatment, and then we get to the point where your medical treatment’s complete and we can send a special damages or demand letter to the insurance company. That can then settle the case within the next couple of months. If that doesn’t settle it, then you have to file a lawsuit.
Oftentimes in slip and fall type of injury cases, the insurance company will try to string the case out and try to make you file a lawsuit because they understand some attorneys will actually tell their clients to walk away from the case because the attorney’s not willing to file the lawsuit. Our firm is willing to file a lawsuit. We are a trial firm. We litigate slip and fall cases to try to maximize the value of those cases.
The easy answer is sometimes we can get these cases settled within a matter of months, but oftentimes, in a slip and fall case, you’ll have to file the lawsuit and then go through that litigation process, which can take several more months. We have board-certified civil trial attorneys that can make that litigation process as easy on you as it can. We do all the heavy lifting, guide you through the case, and help maximize the value of your case. If you have a slip and fall or trip and fall kind of case, feel free to reach out to our law firm. We’d be happy to help you.
