      JZ helps - a Florida injury law firm insurance policy limits

    • @RealJustinZiegler
      @RealJustinZiegler  6 років тому +2

      Thanks for your comment. Insurance policy limits often play a big part in settlement. This is particularly true when the responsible party isn't collectible.

    If you visit the hospital ER and you told staff that you were hurt in an accident at a business or car accident, and they ask for details, names, etc., then why do they bill your medical insurer and not the party you told them about?

    i feel like ima get a pretty big settlement. they accepted 100% liability immediately with a million dollar policy. I was taken to the hospital by EMS in the hospital for 21 days with three surgery's including tib fib, flap, skin graft, never repair(possible permanent nerve damage). with almost a year of recovery and out of work for 6 months. i caught the accident on video and the camera caught everything. it shows my leg snapped and bleeding and me screaming and crying like a baby.

      First Last:
      I hope that you get a big settlement. The facts (as you've described them to me) sound good for your personal injury case.
      You should speak with a lawyer in the state where the accident happened.
      I wish you good luck. Most importantly, I hope that you feel better.

    Hey Justin! First of all, go gators! I am a double gator grad with my MHA. I have been watching your videos which have been helpful in preparation of starting my new job as a Client Advocate tomorrow. Back in 2015, I was hit on my scooter on my way to work at Shands by a girl driving a UF truck so it was a state case (making crumb $$$ with 3 attorney fees taken out).
    I was wondering if you know about the possibility of opening up a case again past the Statute of Limitations? I called the State and Orange County Bar and they said yes, but sent me to someone who’s paralegal told me no.
    I’d love to know because the medical expenses and pain and suffering continue to add on from my TBI and fractured knee-new risky surgeries for both.
    I know you’re not my attorney but thank you for any advice you can give!

      Thank you for watching my videos. I'm sorry that your cut of the settlement was "crumbs".
      I don't know if you can open up your case if, per your statement, that the Statute of Limitations has already passed.
      I'm sorry that the medical expenses and your pain and suffering are increasing.
      I'd recommend that you speak with a lawyer who frequently handles claims against the Shands. I wish you good luck.

I have sent information and filled out medical paperwork to them and last years weekly income for a couple of months that was about 1900$ per week. I know this injury will not go away.

    Hey so I know you can’t give advice on a California case but I was recently in a motorcycle accident, lady pulls u turn causing me to evade her and crash I never touched her car but my bike was totaled I broke my ankle needed surgery and require a future surgery, I’ve recently hired a lawyer and we are working on the case to prove her negligence but there was no witnesses and no proof and the police report was inconclusive, have you seen cases like this get proved in the motorcycle riders favor? And with the whole pain and suffering is it 3x the medical bills or 3x my out of pocket medical bills? Because I only pay 15$ co pays for all my bills but I assume it means just in general what the bills without insurance are? I’m hoping it goes my way because I’m out of work for 6+ weeks and my insurance rules me at fault because a technicality because I never touched her car so my insurance rate has gone through the roof.
