WORKERS' COMPENSATION
Workers' Compensation cases are injuries cause by the negligence of an employer. When a person gets hurt at work due to a dangerous or unsafe work environment.
Workers' Compensation Law mandates that employers provide insurance coverage for employees who suffer work-related injuries or illnesses. If an employee is injured on the job, the law entitles them to medical treatment, disability benefits, and, in some cases, vocational rehabilitation. Compensation is typically provided without the need to prove fault. Employers benefit from protection against lawsuits related to workplace injuries. The system aims to swiftly provide support to injured workers, ensuring they receive necessary medical care and financial assistance.
PERSONAL INJURY CASES
Personal injury law encompasses a large variety of legal actions filed by individuals who have suffered physical or psychological harm due to someone else's negligence or intentional misconduct. Cases often involve car, motorcycle and truck accidents, medical malpractice, product defects, or premises liability. The injured party seeks compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Personal injury lawyers assist in proving liability and negotiating settlements or pursuing litigation. The goal is to provide financial relief to those harmed by others' actions and encourage responsible behavior to prevent similar incidents. Even though laws may vary in certain states but in Florida as of May 23, 2023, the injured party only has 2 years to file a personal injury claim. In the case of a car accident the injured party has to treat with a medical professional within 14 days of the accident or the automobile insurance will not pay the medical bills. The core principle is seeking justice for those injured.
SOCIAL SECURITY AND DISABILITY CLAIMS (SSDI)
Social Security Disability Law (SSDI) provides financial assistance to individuals with disabilities who are unable to work. Administered by the Social Security Administration, it offers monthly benefits based on the individual's work history and disability severity. Eligibility criteria include medical evidence of a qualifying impairment and inability to engage in substantial gainful activity. We will help you get the benefits you deserve. Vassallo, Bilotta and Davis has been working with SSDI claims for over 45 Years. Let our experts help you.
BUSINESS LITIGATION & CONTRACT LAW
Business litigation refers to the legal process used to resolve disputes arising from business transactions.
It typically involves conflicts over contracts, partnerships, intellectual property, or other commercial matters. Contract law plays a key role in this process by governing the creation, interpretation, and enforcement of agreements between parties. It defines the rights and responsibilities of each party, offering a legal framework to resolve conflicts in the event of breaches.
