Personal Injury

Lance Block has been handling personal injury cases since 1984.

Personal injury is a legal term for an injury to the body, brain, or one’s mental and emotional condition, as opposed to damaged property, defamation, breach of contract, or other business disputes. The term is most commonly used to refer to a type of tort lawsuit alleging that the plaintiff’s injury has been wrongfully caused by the negligence or wrongful acts of another. Often times the at-fault party causing the injury has insurance that will pay for the plaintiff’s damages.

The most common types of personal injury claims include automobile accidents, drunken driving accidents, truck accidents, automobile crashworthiness, pedestrian accidents, medical malpractice, negligent care of children or the disabled, negligent security, product liability, construction accidents, animal related claims such as dog bite injuries, and many others. Lance Block has represented hundred of clients with such claims, including those who have suffered brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, wrongful death, and mental pain suffering. For almost thirty years, Lance Block has represented Floridians who have suffered personal injuries due to the negligence or wrongful acts of others.
