Winter 2011

A 90 year old client of THE LAW OFFICES OF JUSTIN G. MORGAN, P.A. was in a store shopping, with her nurses’ aide, when an employee restocking the store ran into her, causing her to fall down. The client had complaints of neck and back pain, and bruising which did not go away. The client had two prior attorneys on the case that could not get any settlement offer from the store. The client then proceeded without an attorney for a few months, and attempted to negotiate a settlement by herself. The store denied her claim.

Attorney Justin G. Morgan was the third attorney retained on the 90 year old woman’s case. The client was elderly and in failing health. He attempted a pre-lawsuit settlement demand and the claim was denied. A lawsuit was immediately filed on behalf of his client, and Attorney Morgan requested a speedy trial date under a Florida law that allows elderly litigants to get a trial date quickly. The Defendant store opposed the speedy trial date, and over the objection of the Defendant’s attorney, the Judge granted a speedy trial date. Less than six months after THE LAW OFFICES OF JUSTIN G. MORGAN, P.A. was retained and a few weeks before trial was scheduled, the case settled at mediation for $130,000.00.

It is typical for businesses and insurance companies to do everything in their power to defeat an injured person’s claim

right from the beginning, before the injured person knows their rights. They do things like take recorded statements from witnesses and injured people and get injured people to sign papers before the injured person knows what is at stake. They almost always want a recorded statement from a fall down injury victim because they know they can destroy the injured person’s case with just a few wrong words.

Clients should understand that fall down cases are more complicated than they think. The law is written to protect landowners and you must be able to prove that the owner or the employee did something that they should not have done or failed to do something that was their duty to do, and as a result, you got hurt. In a car accident case, this concept is pretty simple to prove. For example, the person who ran the red light or stop sign is responsible for another driver’s injury.

Attorney Justin G. Morgan has handled over 4,000 cases and has litigated over 1,500 lawsuits, recovering millions of dollars for his clients. Clients of THE LAW OFFICES OF JUSTIN G. MORGAN, P.A. quickly realize that the best way to level the playing field is to hire a skilled, aggressive, and ethical personal injury lawyer. Insurance companies hate it when a good lawyer gets involved, because they know that the injured person then has their best chance at fair compensation – the very thing that the insurance company goes to great lengths to avoid.
