Our team of personal injury lawyers would like to focus on various kinds of accidents that may occur in gated communities like Ocean Hammock. This will help people in that area understand the services our law firm can provide should a tragedy arise.

Car Accidents

According to statistics from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, around 2.44 million Americans were injured in auto accidents in 2015. These accidents may have been the result of speeding, reckless driving, drunk driving, and driver distraction. Even in gated communities like Ocean Hammock, auto collisions can happen. Lawyers can hold negligent drivers accountable.

Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcyclists are far more vulnerable to injury than other motorists on the road. If a motorcyclist is reckless or inexperienced, a collision can result in catastrophic injury. Similarly, if a motorist is inattentive and strikes a motorcyclist, there may be a tragic aftermath. Our lawyers can help the victims of motorcycle accidents in their time of legal need.

Bicycle and Pedestrian Accidents

Motorists must share the road with bicyclists and pedestrians. Sadly, many people out for a stroll or out for a ride are injured by negligent drivers. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimate that 129,000 pedestrians visited emergency rooms as a result of accidents in 2015; in the same year, there were roughly 467,000 bicycle-related injuries.

Dog Bite and Attacks

Dog owners need to make sure their pets are not a hazard to others. Dogs need to be kept on leashes when out for walks or left behind fences when on a premises. If a dog attacks someone, the injuries can be severe. Many children are the victims of dog attacks because of their natural curiosity around animals. Our lawyers can hold negligent Ocean Hammock dog owners responsible for the actions of their pet.

Slip and Fall Injuries

When you’re out at the store or any business establishment, there may be a risk of slipping and falling. Debris, spills, and various hazards may be on the ground, making a fall much more likely. The owner of the establishment may be held liable for injuries if the slip or fall was the result of negligence on their part.

Boating Accidents and Maritime Law

Many people love having access to the beach and the water, which is why they choose to settle in Ocean Hammock. Yet there are all kinds of injuries that can happen on the water. Boating and jet ski accidents can result in catastrophic injuries. There’s also the risk of drowning to consider when a body of water is present. Our lawyers can assist in these cases when the harm was the result of someone’s negligent actions.

Fatal Injuries and Wrongful Death Cases

If the injuries that a loved one sustains are fatal, out attorneys can help the surviving family members file a wrongful death lawsuit. These cases are similar to personal injury claims, though the legal damages sought also cover funerary costs, lost wages, and the emotional pain and suffering caused by the loss of a love one’s life.
