Why Insurance Companies Make Fighting Them so Hard
While a property owner’s liability insurance may cover your accident-related losses, that does not mean recovering this money will be easy. Insurance companies are for-profit businesses that want to make money, not lose it. The more they pay out in insurance claims, the less profit they make. Therefore, the property owner’s insurance company will likely push back aggressively on your claim. They may try to pressure you to settle for far too little or accuse you of causing your injuries.
Redemption Law knows all the tricks in the insurance companies’ playbook and how to beat them. We hold insurance companies accountable for what they owe accident victims. Let us demand the fair settlement you deserve.
What to Do After a Slip and Fall Accident
If you suffered an injury in a slip and fall accident, you must take care of yourself and protect your rights to compensation. But how can you rest and recuperate if you’re worried about the machinations of the legal process? Let a Miami slip and fall attorney with Redemption Law worry about that, so you can concentrate on your health and well-being.
There are a few things you can do to protect your claim and build the groundwork for recovering fair compensation. As we pursue the money you deserve, you can help us by:
- Listening to your doctor. By the time you give our attorney a call, you should have already seen a doctor. Follow your doctor’s instructions diligently. Not only will this help you recover more fully and quickly, but it will also help your legal case.
- Keeping accident-related records. Hang on to all bills, receipts, statements, and correspondence related to the slip and fall accident. We will need these to file your claim.
- Writing a recovery journal. As the weeks and months drag on, it may be difficult to remember every detail of your recovery. Therefore, we encourage our clients to keep a recovery journal that records their doctor’s visits, medication regimen, pain levels, and physical therapy exercises.

If a property owner’s negligence caused your slip and fall accident, you can file an insurance claim or lawsuit against them. The amount of compensation you can recover will depend on the severity of your injuries, the extent of your losses, and the quality of your legal representation. Hiring an aggressive legal advocate like the attorney at Redemption Law improves your chances of recovering maximum compensation.
We can demand compensation for the following losses:
- Medical expenses. This includes expenses you have already incurred to treat your injuries and future expenses throughout your recovery. Medical expenses may include hospital bills, doctor’s bills, ambulance costs, medications, surgery, medical equipment, and physical therapy.
- Lost income. If you miss work due to your injuries, you could recover your lost wages and benefits.
- Loss of future earnings. If your injuries prevent you from returning to your job or any job in the future, you could recover the value of your lost future earnings.
- Pain and suffering. Slip and fall accident injuries can be excruciating. You deserve something for the pain and suffering the at-fault entity’s negligence caused you.
- Emotional or mental anguish and distress. Slip and fall accidents also contribute to stress, anxiety, fear, and other strong, upsetting emotions.
- Loss of quality of life. Slip and fall accident injuries can make it hard to engage in favorite activities or otherwise enjoy life to its fullest.
- Loss of companionship, support, or consortium. Slip and fall accidents also affect the victim’s families, who may suffer a loss of companionship, support, or marital consortium.
Slip and fall accidents cause various injuries ranging from mild to severe, including:
- Fractures. According to the BMC Public Health study, the risk of fractures from falls increases with age. Fifteen percent of older adults who reported a fall in the student suffered a fracture. Common fractures from slip and fall accidents include the bones of the hand, wrist, arm, ankle, leg, and face.
- Sprains and strains. Sprains occur when a ligament becomes stretched or torn, whereas strains involve stretched or torn muscles or tendons. Sprains and strains are common injuries resulting from slip and fall accidents, particularly in the ankle and wrist.
- Head injuries. Slip and fall accident victims often strike their heads, causing concussions. The head and face can also suffer bruises, lacerations, or fractures.
- Back injuries. Slip and fall accidents often cause back injuries, such as herniated discs, pinched nerves, or muscle strains.
- Traumatic brain injuries. According to the Florida Department of Health, falls are the leading cause of traumatic brain injuries in residents ages 65 and older. Older Floridians are not the only ones at risk for these potentially devastating injuries, which range from mild to moderate to severe and often result in life-long challenges.
Slips and falls can occur among adults of any age. According to a research article published in BMC Public Health, 18 percent of young adults (20 to 45 years), 21 percent of middle-aged adults (46 to 65 years), and 35 percent of older adults (66 years or older) reported falling at least once in the last two years. The National Safety Council found that falls were the leading cause of preventable, nonfatal injuries nationwide, accounting for about 6.8 million injuries that year—more than the next three causes combined.
These accidents can be extremely dangerous, especially for older adults. According to the Florida Department of Health, in a single recent year, 2,445 residents aged 65 or older died from an unintentional fall and 200,000 suffered injuries treated at hospitals and emergency departments. Each week in Florida, there are 3,042 emergency room visits, 976 hospitalizations, and 47 deaths from fall injuries among Florida residents ages 65 and older. Nationwide, unintentional falls among older adults are the leading cause of fatal and nonfatal injuries.
Children also suffer fall-related injuries. According to one recent year of data from the Federal Interagency Forum on Child and Family Statistics, falls are the leading cause of injury-related emergency department visits for children ages 14 and younger.
