Will My Personal Injury Case Go to Court?

Answer:

You won’t automatically be destined to try your case if you file a claim here in the state of Florida. Most cases – in fact, probably somewhere between 75 and 80% of all injury cases that are filed in the state of Florida – will resolve short of even having to file a lawsuit against anybody. The other 20 or 25% of those cases sometimes require litigation, but those, too, a lot of the times, will be resolved in litigation, at mediation or through a proposal for settlement or some other settlement device, and really only a small percentage of cases in the state of Florida will ultimately result in a trial.
