We have had positive results against many of the area’s insurance companies, medical manufacturers, automobile manufacturers, land and business owners, as well as a wide array of other negligent defendants.

The value of each case is different and must be evaluated separately. We take a great deal of time to come to a proper evaluation of your case. However, you must know that there is never a guarantee of any recovery.

NKP opens its doors and offers you a no-charge-upfront promise. We work on a standard Florida Bar-approved contingency fee contract, which means if we do not recover money for you, you owe us no attorney’s fees. If we win your case and recover money on your behalf, our fees will be deducted from your settlement or award.

NK&P’s staff of lawyers and legal assistants will work with you directly. We also have investigators, forensic specialists, psychologists, law clerks, and word processors all working on your behalf, although some of them you may never communicate with or see.

Not always. As your case is developed and prosecuted, there will be various court hearings on legal matters. These hearings normally involve discovery issues such as the court determining what documents must be produced when one side has objected. These types of hearings do not require your attendance or participation. If any court hearing does require you to attend, you will be notified.

Compensatory damages compensate the injured person for various kinds of losses or damages. These may also be referred to as actual damages. Compensatory damages include economic damages such as medical bills and lost wages, or non-economic damages such as pain and suffering, mental anguish, or inability to lead a normal life.

Punitive damages exist to punish or make an example of the wrongdoer for conduct that is intentional, or when the wrongdoer acts in a reckless manner in disregard for the rights of others. The actual payment of punitive damages is rare, and appellate courts frequently cut punitive damage awards down, or simply throw them out. However, the threat of punitive damages can often induce the defense to make an increased settlement.

Yes, no case is ever settled without your expressed consent. Whenever settlement negotiations are initiated by either party you will be informed, and it is only with your full participation, advice, and consent that your case will be settled.

Typically, once a case is settled, documents must be exchanged between both parties of the lawsuit. This process usually takes 30 – 45 days, but can take longer if your case involves special circumstances such as a settlement of a minor or incompetent, which requires court approval.

The term "personal injury" is generally used to describe the combined total of all compensable injuries caused by another's negligence in Florida. Physical injuries and property damage (such as an accident-damaged car) are included in this category. "Bodily injury" only refers to that broad class of injuries sustained to the person. In a car accident injury context, then, that would be the cost of medical bills, lost wages and pain and suffering. When looking at a car insurance policy, the "bodily injury" portion of the coverage pays for these sorts of damages, while you have to look at the "property damage" portion of the policy to get paid back for car repairs, car replacement, diminished value, etc...

A case of personal injury law involves a situation where a person gets into an accident and incurs severe or minor injuries due to the ignorance, negligence, or carelessness of another person. The purpose of personal injury law is to help the victims of wrongful injury get compensation for their loss, be it physical or mental injury and medical or legal expenses (present and future).
