Our Margate Brain Injury Attorneys Will Pursue Fair Compensation for Your Damages
When you hire our Florida brain injury attorney to handle your brain injury case, our legal team aims to hold the at-fault party accountable and recover fair compensation. The money in these cases covers the expenses and losses your family incurred because of your injuries, medical treatment, and other related costs.
Our Margate, FL, team can identify, document, and value recoverable damages in these cases. We catalog as many of your current and future costs as possible, including working with experts to understand your prognosis, ongoing care needs, and future medical expenses. This is essential when injuries are catastrophic and could affect your life for years to come.
Common damages we recover for our clients living with TBIs include:
- Pain and suffering and other non-economic damages
- Medical bills, current and future
- Ongoing care and support expenses
- Income losses from time out of work
- Diminished earning capacity for lasting impairments
- Property damages, when applicable
- Miscellaneous expenses with receipts
Our Margate, FL, brain injury lawyers understand families’ out-of-pocket expenses from accidents and injuries. We can help you determine a recoverable cost and gather evidence to document your expenses.
Wrongful Death in a Margate Brain Injury Case
When necessary, our team helps families seek justice after their loved one dies from a Margate brain injury. Our wrongful death lawyers approach each case with compassion and understanding. We can navigate the applicable Florida laws to file a lawsuit and recover compensation for clients.

Let Our Margate TBI Lawyer Handle Your Florida Personal Injury Case
At Ged Lawyers, our South Florida attorneys fight to recover the money our clients need to ensure their financial stability and pay for their ongoing and future care costs. We know how important rehabilitation, continued therapy, and ongoing monitoring are for many living with TBIs. While some recover fully, many do not. They require additional care and monitoring because of their injuries.
Our Margate personal injury attorneys develop cases and pursue maximum compensation in a wide variety of circumstances when brain injuries could occur. A case might be possible in almost any negligence incident, but some of the most common we handle include:
- Car accidents
- Truck accidents
- Boating accidents
- Motorcycle accidents
- Bicycle accidents
- Slip and fall accidents
- Defective products
- Medical malpractice
When you look at our case results, you will see multiple $1 million-plus payouts we recovered for clients through settlements and verdicts. While this does not mean we can secure this much in your case—your damages could be worth more or less—it does show we know how to navigate the process and win for our clients.
We are a contingency fee law firm serving Broward County. We do not ask Margate injury victims to pay us for their initial consultation with our team or for us to work on their cases. We never ask for a retainer. Instead, we work for a percentage of the money we recover for you. If we don’t win your case, you won’t pay.
Our Margate TBI Attorneys Will Identify Liable Parties and Hold Them Accountable
Florida law allows us to hold at-fault parties responsible for our clients’ brain injuries. When we can show someone’s carelessness or recklessness caused an accident, this is the foundation of a personal injury case.
To recover compensation, we must show negligence occurred. The four elements of negligence are:
- Duty of care
- Breach of duty
- Causation
- Harm
Our attorneys can establish each of these elements in various cases. For example, in a car accident case, our attorneys will show:
- How traffic laws created a duty of care for the other driver, such as having to stop because of a red light
- How the driver breached their duty, usually by breaking the traffic law
- That their breach was the proximate cause of the crash
- Our client suffered damages that warrant receiving compensation for losses
To do this, our Margate TBI lawyer will gather evidence that could include:
- Official reports police officers or other first responders filed
- Video footage of the incident
- Eyewitness statements
- Relevant medical records
- Expert testimony
- Documentation of expenses and losses
This evidence supports a compelling case to recover financial compensation after someone demonstrates negligent actions. We file insurance claims based on the liable party’s coverage or sue them in a Broward County civil court. We often can negotiate fair settlements for our clients and recover the money they deserve based on their case facts.
