After an accident, one of the first questions many clients ask is how much their case may be worth. The answer depends on many factors, but every claim starts with the same goal: to recover compensation for the losses you’ve suffered. At Malki Law, our job is to evaluate the details of your accident, gather evidence, and build the strongest possible case to maximize your recovery.
Personal injury damages generally fall into two categories: economic damages and non-economic damages.
Economic damages are financial losses that can be documented and measured, such as:
Current and future medical bills
Rehabilitation and therapy costs
Lost income and reduced earning capacity
Property damage (such as vehicle repairs)
Funeral and burial expenses in wrongful death cases
Non-economic damages are more personal losses that don’t come with receipts but are no less real, including:
Pain and suffering
Emotional distress
Loss of enjoyment of life
Permanent disability or disfigurement
Loss of companionship or consortium
In rare cases, punitive damages may also be awarded. These are not meant to compensate you for your losses but to punish a defendant for intentional or reckless behavior.
Every personal injury case is unique, but certain factors often influence the value of a claim, such as:
The severity and type of injuries you sustained
Whether you will make a full recovery or face long-term effects
How your injuries impact your ability to work or earn a living
Whether you share any responsibility for the accident
Insurance coverage and policy limits
Your age, health, and expected future care needs
Serious, life-changing injuries usually result in higher settlements or verdicts, but even cases involving moderate injuries can provide meaningful compensation when handled properly.
The only way to know the potential value of your case is to speak with an experienced attorney. At Malki Law, we take the time to understand your situation, review medical records and evidence, and give you an honest assessment. From there, we fight aggressively to pursue every dollar you are entitled to under Florida law.

Under Florida law, liability means financial responsibility for an accident. It can apply to a careless driver, a negligent property owner, a business, or anyone whose actions or inactions caused harm.
Most cases are built on negligence. Negligence means someone had a duty to act with care, failed to do so, and caused injuries as a result.
To prove negligence, four elements must be shown:
Duty of Care – The defendant had a responsibility to act safely.
Breach of Duty – They failed to meet that responsibility.
Causation – Their actions directly caused the accident.
Damages – You suffered losses such as medical bills, lost income, or pain.
Some cases are simple. A driver runs a red light and causes a crash. Others are more complex, like multi-vehicle wrecks, workplace accidents, or medical malpractice.
Insurance companies often dispute liability to avoid paying. They may blame the victim or argue that injuries were pre-existing. That’s why having an experienced attorney matters.
At Malki Law, we gather evidence, speak with witnesses, and work with experts to prove fault. Whether your accident happened on I-275, at a store in Ybor City, or on a construction site downtown, we work to hold the right party accountable.
In Florida, liability is not limited to one person. Everyone who contributes to an accident, including the victim, can share responsibility. This is handled under the state’s modified comparative negligence rule.
The rule works as follows:
If you are more than 50% at fault, you cannot recover compensation from another party.
If you are 50% or less at fault, you can still recover damages, but your award will be reduced by your percentage of fault.
For example, if a jury finds you 30% responsible for a Tampa car accident and your damages total $100,000, your recovery would be reduced by 30%. You would receive $70,000 instead of the full amount.
Insurance companies often try to use this law to their advantage. They may argue that you were mostly responsible, even when the evidence doesn’t support that claim. The more blame they shift to you, the less they have to pay.
That’s why it’s important not to give up, even if someone says you were partly at fault. At Malki Law, we investigate the facts, gather evidence, and fight to minimize your share of the blame. Our goal is to protect your rights and secure the maximum recovery possible.
One of the most important roles of a personal injury lawyer is to make sure fault is placed where it truly belongs. At Malki Law, we are committed to minimizing your share of responsibility so you can recover the full amount of compensation available.
We do this by conducting a thorough investigation of every case. Our team reviews accident reports, interviews witnesses, examines photos and video footage, and consults experts when needed. We go deeper than the surface-level information that insurance companies rely on.
If you were in a car accident, a police officer may have listed you as at fault or even issued you a ticket. That does not mean your case is over. Police reports are often incomplete, and tickets are not proof of fault in court. In fact, Florida law does not allow traffic citations to be used as evidence of liability in personal injury trials.
We have a strong track record of challenging initial findings and uncovering the full truth. Our goal is simple: to build the strongest case possible, shift blame back to the right party, and protect your right to maximum recovery.
At Malki Law, we focus exclusively on helping accident victims and their families recover after serious injuries. With more than 13 years of experience, our team has built a reputation for handling tough cases and delivering results. We take a client-first approach to every matter, combining legal skill, practical resources, and relentless advocacy.
Below are some of the key personal injury cases we handle in Tampa:
Car crashes are one of the most common causes of injury in Tampa. Whether it’s a distracted driver on I-275 or a reckless driver on Dale Mabry Highway, we fight to hold negligent drivers accountable. Our attorneys pursue full compensation for medical costs, lost wages, and the pain caused by preventable collisions.
Accidents involving large commercial trucks often lead to catastrophic injuries. These cases can be complex because multiple parties may be responsible, from the driver to the trucking company or even the manufacturer of faulty parts. We investigate every angle and work to maximize recovery for truck accident victims.
Motorcyclists are especially vulnerable on the road. A careless driver can cause life-changing injuries in an instant. Our Tampa motorcycle accident lawyers know how to prove liability and secure compensation for bikers and their families.
Property owners must keep their premises safe. When they fail, serious falls can occur. We represent clients who have been hurt in stores, restaurants, apartment complexes, and other public places across Tampa.
Losing a loved one is devastating. While no amount of money can replace a family member, a wrongful death claim can provide financial stability and hold negligent parties accountable. We stand by grieving families with compassion and strength.
When doctors or healthcare providers fail to meet the standard of care, patients suffer. We handle malpractice claims involving surgical errors, misdiagnosis, birth injuries, and more.
If you’ve been injured on the job, you may be entitled to workers’ compensation or additional claims against third parties. We fight to secure benefits and explore every available legal option.
Defective products, from faulty auto parts to unsafe medical devices, can cause serious harm. We pursue claims against manufacturers, distributors, and retailers who put profits over safety.

Accidents can be overwhelming and stressful. It’s normal to have questions about your rights, the legal process, and what to expect after filing a claim. Our Tampa personal injury lawyers have the answers you need.
You don’t pay anything upfront. At Malki Law, we work on a contingency fee basis, which means our fee is only collected if we win your case. There are no out-of-pocket costs, and you owe us nothing unless we recover compensation on your behalf. This allows you to focus on healing without worrying about legal expenses.
Florida law generally gives you two years from the date of an accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. In some cases, the deadline may be extended if the injury was not immediately discovered. Missing the statute of limitations means losing your right to seek compensation, which is why it’s important to contact a lawyer as soon as possible.
Every case is different. Some settle in weeks, while others may take months or longer. Factors that affect the timeline include:
How clearly liability is established
How severe the injuries are
How long it takes to reach maximum medical improvement
Whether the insurance company is willing to negotiate fairly
While many clients want a quick settlement, it’s important not to rush. Accepting too little too soon can leave you paying for future medical care out of pocket. Our attorneys balance speed with strategy to make sure you receive fair compensation.
Under Florida law, a “serious injury” generally involves a condition that causes a substantial risk of death, permanent disfigurement, or long-term impairment of a major body function. Examples include traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, severe burns, amputations, and organ damage. If your injuries meet this definition, you may be entitled to pursue additional compensation outside of Florida’s no-fault insurance system.
Pain and suffering are considered non-economic damages, which means they don’t have a fixed dollar value. Instead, they are typically calculated using a multiplier applied to your economic damages (like medical bills and lost wages). The more severe and permanent the injury, the higher the multiplier.
For example, if your economic damages equal $200,000 and a multiplier of three is applied, your pain and suffering damages may total $600,000. Together, this would make your claim worth $800,000. Every case is different, and our team works to ensure that your pain and suffering are valued fairly.
If you have been seriously injured or lost a loved one in a Tampa accident, Malki Law is here to help. For more than 13 years, our firm has stood up for injury victims across Florida. We have recovered tens of millions of dollars for our clients and are ready to fight for you.
You deserve a lawyer who understands what you are going through and will fight for the compensation you need to move forward. At Malki Law, you pay nothing unless we win your case.
