Frequently Asked Questions at Berger Legal Firm

Having accurate information is crucial when navigating legal matters in Florida. At Berger Legal Firm, we understand that you may have many questions about your case. Here, we address some of the most common inquiries our clients have:

One of the top concerns for individuals seeking legal representation is the cost of hiring a personal injury lawyer in Florida. At Berger Legal Firm, we work on a contingency fee basis—meaning you pay no upfront fees. Our payment comes as a percentage of the compensation we recover for you. This ensures our services remain accessible to those who need them most, and you owe us nothing unless we win your case.

The value of a legal case can vary greatly depending on the nature of the issue, the evidence available, potential damages, and the overall impact on your life. At Berger Legal Firm, our experienced Florida attorneys will carefully evaluate the details of your case and provide a clear estimate during your free, no-obligation consultation—so you know what to expect from the start.

Though you are not required to hire an attorney, securing legal representation can safeguard your interests, especially when complications arise in your case. A lawyer helps pursue fair compensation and guides you through the legal process.

Even if you were involved in a minor accident in Florida, consulting a Florida personal injury lawyer can be beneficial. They will evaluate your damages, negotiate with insurance companies, and make sure you know your full legal rights and options. Further, because we offer free consultations, there is no downside to having your case evaluated by a member of our team.

The statute of limitations—the legal deadline for filing a case—varies depending on the type of legal matter. Whether it’s a personal injury claim, contract dispute, or criminal defense case, missing this deadline can mean losing your right to take legal action. At Berger Legal Firm, we help you understand the timelines that apply to your specific case and ensure everything is filed on time.

 

Florida follows a modified comparative fault system. This means you may still be eligible to recover compensation even if you were partially at fault—so long as you are not more than 50% responsible. However, your compensation will be reduced based on your percentage of fault. At Berger Legal Firm, we’ll evaluate your case thoroughly and work to minimize your share of fault to help you pursue the maximum recovery allowed under Florida law.
