Florida Accident Attorney Putting Clients First
You the consumer have choices when it comes to legal services. When you and your family are facing a crisis, a serious personal injury or wrongful death caused by a vehicle accident or car accident, which has changed the course your lives, what kind of advocate will you look for?
At the Harris Law Firm, we don’t believe in business as usual. We only represent individuals and families who have been injured through the carelessness or wrongs of others. We take accident cases on contingency, which means you do not owe us a penny in fees if we don’t win your case. Simple, straightforward, and we share in the risk (which also provides financial incentive above and beyond the moral incentive) to move your case forward to secure prompt and fair justice.
Moving Cases Forward, and Doing So Quickly
We also believe in moving our clients’ cases forward, and doing so fast. If a case won’t settle quickly or justly, or the insurance company delays or plays games, then with your permission we march ahead quickly to trial by jury. The fact is most cases do settle out of court, while others simply have to be tried and resolve by a jury.
We do not shy away from the courtroom. We have the experience, the skills, the drive, to win.
We Approach Cases Differently
I founded the Harris Law Firm to do things differently. Not to take every case upon every perceived wrong, but to take on clients whom we believe in, move their case, their cause, as fast as possible, and fight to win through settlement or trial. We put the focus on the client, their needs, their values, and allow those qualities to help guide us through our shared quest for justice.
Of course, we don’t always win. No one always wins in life or in the law. Taking on compelling, yet challenging, cases means that some will be lost. An old trial lawyer saying goes, “If you haven’t lost a trial, then you haven’t tried enough cases.” We can’t guarantee we’ll win your case. We can, however, promise personal attention, personal service, and the drive to win.

Finding an Accident Lawyer Who is the Best Fit for You
Finding an Experienced and Driven Accident Lawyer Can be a Challenge — But Doing Some Basic Homework Can Help
Finding the best Florida car accident lawyer for your accident injury matter can be a challenge, unless you are one of those folks who opts to call the first number you see on TV, or the accident lawyer having the biggest ad in the local phone book.
With just a little time and effort, however, you can overcome the challenge by pre-qualifying the prospective attorney who will be handling your case (like you might do for a doctor who is going to perform your surgery). The fact is, you, the consumer, do have choices.
Yes, there are several attorneys or “accident lawyers” out there who suggest you contact them. But do you know anything about them?
Seek a Southwest Florida accident lawyer — one who is familiar with Fort Myers, Cape Coral, Lehigh Acres, Naples, Port Charlotte, Punta Gorda, LaBelle — and has experience in our local courtrooms. Ask about the lawyer’s education, training, and experience in personal injury law, and whether your counsel has experience in litigating vehicle accident cases. Most serious accident cases settle before any trial, but having actual trial experience is helpful, so keep that in mind when interviewing your potential lawyer.
For example, attorney David Harris of the Harris Law Firm has more than 15 years of litigation and trial experience, and more specifically, has litigated auto accident cases, locally, in Collier County, Lee County, Charlotte County, Sarasota County, Hendry County, and beyond.
We handle car accidents, highway crashes, motorcycle wrecks, and and trucking accidents throughout SWFL, including those involving herniated discs, broken bones, brain injury, spinal injury, burn injury, paralysis, and more.
Perhaps most importantly, besides our experience, is that we put our clients first.
Avoiding Car Accident Mistakes
There is no doubt about it. A car accident has the real tendency to shock the unshockable, cool-as-a-cucumber, individual. If the crash is serious, and the injured party is conscious and alert, being confused is a known consequence. Because the car crash victim is not thinking clearly, mistakes can be made at the outset which harm that victims chances of recovering fair and just compensation from the negligent motorist.
Here we provide some tips on keeping it together, and being your own advocate as you maneuver through the claims process to pay for your medical bills, lost wages, and related harms and losses.
1. Avoid the mistake of failing to call the police. Not only do they perform the preliminary investigation, including witness identification and interviews, but they establish the incident in official records.
2. Avoid the mistake of failing to be treated by EMS and taken to the hospital. If you’re hurting, then don’t take chances with your health. There may be more going on than you realize, and your post-accident haze can cloud your judgment. It’s worth the time and bill to identify your injuries so they can be treated, and to avoid even more serious injuries or worsening of your condition caused by non-treatment.
3. Avoid the mistake of failing to notify your insurance company. You should report the accident to your insurance company as soon as you reasonably can after the accident. Your insurance policy likely requires you to give them notice of the auto accident as soon as possible after the collision. This does not mean that you should be lulled into thinking they are looking out for you. They’re not. Insurance companies universally want to protect their shareholders’ money.
4. Avoid the mistake of failing to contact an experienced accident lawyer after your car accident. At the Harris Law Firm PA, for example, you will speak to an experienced, principled, and driven car accident lawyer who serves the Southwest Florida region, including Ft. Myers, Cape Coral, Lehigh Acres, Naples, Port Charlotte, Punta Gorda, and beyond.
5. Avoid the mistake of giving the negligent driver’s insurance company a statement. Giving a statement to them is designed to help them. Contact an experienced accident lawyer at the Harris Law Firm first.
6. Avoid the mistake of signing forms that the insurance company wants you to sign. Do you have any idea what it is that you are signing? Contact an experienced accident attorney at the Harris Law Firm first.
7. Avoid the mistake of failing to know your harms and losses. If you’re hurt, then find a doctor and obtain an exam and treatment (including after that ER visit right after the traffic crash). This is about getting better. In order for your doctors to help, you have to tell your doctor what all of your injuries are. Keep it real. Tell the truth. Do not exaggerate.
8. Avoid the mistake of not asking questions of your doctor. Question Your Doctor In Personal Injury Cases about his experience dealing with the types of injuries you have suffered, his treatment plan, his prescription or nonprescription medication suggestions, the tests he will perform, his willingness to prepare a report or testify at your trial, the permanence of your injury, the frequency of follow-up visits, and whether he plans to refer you to other specialists for your injuries. In this way, both you and your doctor will be prepared if your case goes to trial.
9. Avoid the mistake of failing to keep records of all of your medical bills, and of the expenses you spent going back and forth to the doctors. Keep your receipts for co-pays and deductibles.
10. Avoid the mistake of not telling your lawyer and treating physicians the whole truth. If you have had any past accidents or injuries or serious illnesses, then let them know. Insurance companies pool their information into national databases, so they will find out how many accidents you have been in and how many times you have made an injury claim. If you lie about your past (or anything for that matter), then your case is dead.
11. Avoid the mistake of exaggerating your activity level before and after the car accident. Insurance companies routinely hire private investigators to conduct videotape surveillance. Lying about or exaggerating your injury, such as saying you cannot do strenuous activities while an investigator is taping you fixing a roof or playing tennis, is a dead end. Be honest about what you can and cannot do, your limitations and restrictions.
12. Avoid the mistake of having embarrassing, or contradictory, social media content. Facebook, MySpace, and other social networking sites have been used by insurance companies and defense lawyers to embarrass and discredit legitimate personal injury victims. This typically arises when a seriously injured accident victim posts content which is graphic or shows the accident injury victim engaged in activity he or she said they could not do. Even when there is a reasonable explanation, the damage to the case can be already done.

Serious Car Accidents Change Lives
A car accident, particularly a serious one (but also those collisions which appear minor), have the capacity to change lives of good, decent, hard working people. We know because we have seen so many lives, and the lives of family members, change so drastically in an instant.
This is not simply some anecdote. In the U.S., a reported 43,000 persons die each year due to car accidents. Think about that staggering figure. That is about 115 deaths every day or 1 in every 13 minutes. That’s more than virtually every illness. Of course, far more people are injured in these car wrecks. Why? People are not paying attention, and carelessly collide into others.
In Southwest Florida, for example, there have been nearly a dozen deaths in just the last 10 days. The majority of these traffic deaths and injuries were the result of motorists not paying attention, not being vigilant. A horrible price for carelessness.
While traffic fatalities are the greatest loss, others find themselves fighting for their lives. Adding insult to injury, these personal injury sufferers then have to fight with insurance companies for their valid claims. As a result, injured consumers often come to the Harris Law Firm PA fight a legal battle to recover compensation for damages, injuries, pain and suffering.
At the Harris Law Firm, our accident attorneys know that auto accidents can and too often do result to very serious personal injury harms and losses goo people, including:
- head injury
- brain injury
- neck injury
- back injury
- disc herniation
- paralysis
- spinal injury
- lumbar injury
- cervical injury
Why should you be left alone to pick up the pieces of your life after a life-changing accident? Why should the insurance company — which insures that careless driver — fight your legitimate claim? Maybe to save themselves money for that lavish holiday party . . . (i.e. there probably isn’t a good reason for the delay or denial).

Accident Lawyer Helping the Seriously Injured
The streets and highways of Southwest Florida can be a dangerous. Just think of all the recent highway crashes, vehicle rollovers, and trucking accidents you’ve heard about on I-75. Think about the traffic congestion, car accidents, motorcycle accidents, and pedestrian accidents, which occurred throughout Fort Myers, Cape Coral, Lehigh Acres, Naples, LaBelle, and Port Charlotte.
Inattentive drivers, drunk drivers, drivers texting while driving, aggressive drivers, reckless drivers can change your life in an instant.
Car accidents are the No. 1 cause of death and injury in both the USA and Florida. If you have been seriously injured in a car accident in which another driver was at fault, then contact car accident attorney David Harris of the Harris Law Firm, P.A.
When dealing with injuries, some of which can be extremely serious, it is difficult to face dealing with insurance companies and the claims process. In fact, if you accept a settlement from an insurance company without legal assistance, you typically lose the ability to make future claims, as well as pursue any other parties who may have contributed to your injuries. A personal injury attorney from the Harris Law Firm, P.A. can help you to ensure that all possible claims are made in your case.
Failure to obey posted street signs, texting and driving, driving while intoxicated, traveling too fast for road conditions, and vehicle defects. These are just a few of the contributing circumstances that support statistics that every person in Florida will be involved in a motor vehicle accident at some point in his or her life.
Personal Attention and Service
For those car accidents that result in serious personal injury, seek the assistance of an attorney who puts clients first, providing each one with personal service and attention. Because we limit the number of clients we accept, you can rest assured that your case will stay alive and move forward until it is resolved.
Insurance Companies Are Not on Your Side
Insurance companies do not place the interests of the injury victim first and foremost. In fact, dealing with an insurance claims adjuster following a serious car accident is like being victimized for a second time. Most large insurance companies use “claims software” to decide the value of a life. Rarely are human harms and losses factored into the equation.
In many cases, the settlement offered to you by the insurance company is a “low-ball offer.” When being concerned with medical bills, loss of work and recovering your health, you may not realize that an offer is far lower than you actually could have received with the help of a skilled accident attorney.
If you later develop health problems as a result of the car accident, you lose the ability to make a claim. Do not accept any insurance company offer without consulting with an accident lawyer from the Harris Law Firm, P.A. Our attorneys have extensive experience and success in dealing with insurance companies and will fight aggressively for maximum compensation for your injury claim or the death of a loved one.

TV Lawyer Referral Services: What’s Wrong With You?
The endless parade of TV commercials touting “lawyer and doctor referral services” leaves me wondering: who calls these folks? What is wrong with the people who do?
The actors say something like, “I’m not a doctor, and I’m no lawyer . . .” Really? Are you sure? Did anyone think you — the actor — were the attorney or chiropractor they would be calling?
Wow, the mindlessness of it all. The referral service is a glorified phone bank. An auto accident injury victim calls the “service” (aka telephone operator) and the operator reads from a prepared script seeking to steer you to a chiropractor and/or an accident lawyer. Take your pick.
I used to think that only the non-serious auto accident cases would be processed through such means. But, then I wondered: would genuinely and seriously injured persons — harmed in an car accident or motorcycle accident — actually call these people? Would they tempted by the actors ridiculous, and artificial, script of “I’m no lawyer, and I ain’t no doctor” but call this number . . .
The lawyers who are part of this service must pay a fee or something to participate. I am not aware of any screening of attorneys or chiropractors who participate in these TV lawyer referral services. So, perhaps you the prospective client get what you pay for? Do you feel comfortable with this arrangement? Isn’t there a better way of finding a lawyer — and vetting that attorney — before you go calling an 800 number referral service?
I’m all for free speech in attorney advertising. There really is no reason that lawyers should be prohibited or restricted in the ways we are when other professions and businesses are not. It is basic economics — creating barriers to entry through marketing restrictions only helps a select few, and harms the rest by limiting choices and access. I even believe these nonsensical ads should be left alone if the market (i.e. people call and use the services) demands them. Of course I’d like to see common sense prevail, and think reasonably intelligent people see through these ads. Yes, I think the ads are demeaning to the legal profession, but they are not the reason people don’t like attorneys.
But sometimes I wonder.
