A West Palm Beach Car Accident Lawyer Can Help with Lost Income
Get full compensation for your injuries after your crash
If you have been injured in a car accident in Florida caused by another driver, you might be unable to work for several weeks or months or even longer. If that happens, you need to make sure you are compensated for your injuries. You didn't cause the accident. Why should you pay for someone else's mistakes?
Loss of income is just one example of damages you can seek after being injured in a car accident caused by someone else's negligence. A car accident can affect you physically, emotionally and financially. That's why you need an experienced attorney to hold the negligent driver accountable and help you recover the compensation you deserve.
West Palm Beach car accident lawyer David Glatthorn has helped countless people during his more than 30 years of working in South Florida. That's why he wants to help you get your life back on track after a serious auto accident.
West Palm Beach, Florida car accident lawyer David Glatthorn can help you
In order to help you, attorney Glatthorn will need three things to prove loss of income after a Florida car crash. He can help you every step of the way. Here are three pieces of evidence that are generally needed to claim lost income:
1) A statement from your employer: The statement from your employer should include the amount of time you missed from work due to your injury and the amount you would have earned if you had you been working. Your employer should also note if you went back to work but are working fewer hours, or if you are working in a position that pays you less than before the accident.
2) A medical evaluation: The medical evaluation must be written by your doctor. It should include a report of your injuries, the details of any past or on-going treatment, and a discussion of your ability to work. The doctor should note for how long you were unable to work after the accident and when (if ever) you will be able to return to your previous employment.
3) A wage report: Your West Palm Beach auto accident attorney can help you use your past earnings to calculate a fair amount to report for lost wages. This may be challenging, if you have irregular income, work for tips, or are self-employed.
You can expect attorney Glatthorn to be aggressive in his fight to recover compensation for you. You can also expect compassionate representation and personal attention. He wants to hear how the accident has affected your life and wants to help as much as possible.
