Let Our Ocala Personal Injury Attorneys Deal With the Insurance Company for You
The at-fault party’s insurance company is focused on its bottom line. Our law firm is focused on your best interest. When we negotiate on your behalf, our goal is to help you make a well-informed final decision and ensure your case is not undervalued or underpaid.
Our personal injury lawyer can:
- Assign an accurate value to your case
- Send an initial settlement demand letter

Our familiarity with personal injury and insurance law in Florida also means we can ensure you are not victimized by bad-faith insurance practices.

- Explain the trial process
- Prepare evidence and exhibits
- Present your case in court
- Conduct a discovery session
- Depose any witnesses
We also provide you with ongoing updates, so you never have to wonder about the court process or any developments in your case against the at-fault party.

Recoverable Damages in an Ocala Personal Injury Claim or Lawsuit
You should not have to pay the price of your severe injuries and financial losses by yourself. Bogin, Munns & Munns can pressure the insurance company to pay a fair settlement. Compensatory damages in an Ocala personal injury case may include:
- Expenses related to your medical care and follow-up treatments
- Lost wages from time away from work
- Any decrease in earning capacity if you cannot return to the same job because of your injuries
- Property damage costs
- Other out-of-pocket expenses related to your accident, injuries, or care
- Non-economic damages, such as pain and suffering, emotional distress, disability, and disfigurement
You Could Recover Damages if You Lost a Loved One in Ocala
If you qualify to recover damages on behalf of a decedent, Florida Statutes § 768.21 says that you could secure the following types of damages:
- Loss of consortium
- Funeral expenses, including the burial plot, cremation, and casket
- Pain and suffering
- Loss of income
- Loss of inheritance
- Medical expenses
We Can Calculate the Value of Your Accident-Related Expenses
To determine the value of your expenses, our personal injury law firm in Ocala can review the following:
- The financial losses you incurred because of the accident and your injuries
- The impact of your injuries on your life
- The effect of your loved one’s passing on your life
- Your ability to work
- Your mobility
- Your anticipated healthcare and property damage costs
- The length of your recovery period
Documenting the value of your damages in a personal injury case is key to recovering a fair settlement from the other party’s insurance company or proving your case in court.
Without understanding how much you lost, you cannot understand if you are getting a fair offer.
You Have a Limited Window of Action After a Personal Injury
Our team likes to get started on personal injury cases as soon as possible. It allows us to begin our investigation and talk to any eyewitnesses while the incident is still fresh in their minds. In addition, it allows us to go to work early to protect your rights.
Call Bogin, Munns & Munns today so our dedicated attorneys can start pursuing the compensatory damages your family deserves. The initial consultation is always free.
You Generally Have Two Years to File Your Ocala Lawsuit
Under Florida Statutes § 95.11, you may have up to two years to file a personal injury lawsuit. Common cases that fall under this two-year limit include auto accidents, truck accidents, and slip and fall cases. Nursing home abuse and wrongful death cases also follow a two-year time limit.
Other cases may have a longer window of time, but our Central Florida lawyers can help you determine how long you have left to file based on the circumstances of your accident.
Our Ocala Accident Lawyers Can Prove Negligence in Your Case
To secure compensation for injury victims like you, our team must prove the following:
- Another party had an obligation to act responsibly or keep you from getting hurt.
- The at-fault party failed in this obligation.
- You were injured in an accident or incident due to carelessness or recklessness.
- You suffered losses.
When an accident victim can prove liability and document their expenses and other losses, they can often recover a payout by filing an insurance claim or a personal injury lawsuit. Bogin, Munns & Munns can handle the claims process on your behalf.

We Address Our Ocala Clients’ Most Frequently Asked Questions
You likely have many concerns and questions about the legal process and how you can hold the responsible parties accountable. The accident attorneys at Bogin, Munns & Munns are here to help you work through topics like the following:
What do You Do if the Liable Party’s Insurance does Not Cover Your Injuries?
The party responsible is liable for all the damage or harm they cause, not just the amount covered by their insurance. Insurance is used as a buffer to keep the out-of-pocket costs at a minimum. However, if the expenses exceed the amount covered by the insurance, the liable party is responsible for paying the difference.
The problem then arises of making the liable party actually pay. They need to have assets and/or income. If the burden of paying becomes too great, the liable party may file bankruptcy, discharging the remaining obligation (with limited exceptions). Our lawyers in Ocala can help you navigate this challenge.
Where do You File a Wrongful Death Claim in Ocala?
All potential lawsuits in Florida are controlled by statute and case law, which determines where the complaint must be filed. Generally, the lawsuit must be filed in the county where the accident occurred (that means Marion County for Ocala-based accidents).
It is vitally important that you contact an attorney with experience in wrongful death claims to determine where the claim must be filed. We can make sure your case is not delayed or dismissed because of preventable errors.
What Is the Average Personal Injury Settlement in Florida?
Every person’s accident and injuries are unique to them, so determining an average settlement amount is not possible. It is more useful to let Bogin, Munns & Munns evaluate your situation and fight for the money you need to cover your past, present, and future losses.
