My Dog Was Bitten by Another Dog

Posted on May 13, 2013 by brent123

What happens if my dog was bitten by another dog?  Liability will depend if the owner was negligent or in violation of a law.

Negligence is always difficult to prove, but there are always key factors to keep in mind when trying to prove negligence. For

dog biteexample if the owner has a dog that tends to attack others or other dogs, it would be unreasonable to bring that dog to a dog park where the dog could bite another dog. That is when there is a case for negligence on the part of the dog that had bitten your dog.

Another situation to consider is if the owner was in violation of the law during the incident. If their dog was not on a leash and the law is clear that the animal should be on a leash then the owner is responsible. Perhaps you were in an area where the ordinance requires the owner of the other dog is responsible for any damages regardless of negligence.  That is very simple and easy to consider and prove consult us on how to take care of your dog when it has been bitten by another dog.

You should only be considering the best when worrying about our furry friends but we must also be responsible owners. When a dog bites another dog unfortunately the responsibility does fall upon the owner of the dog who made the damage. We always believe in being the voice of information for you. If you have any questions we want you to call us today. We want you to live life and leave the legal stuff to us!

Florida Takes Top Spot in Foreclosures

Posted on April 25, 2013 by brent123

Florida remains in the lead for the most foreclosures filed again this month. On top of that Miami is the foreclosure capital. We should only be so lucky! Fortunately, you have help; we have a great team of attorneys in the South Florida area, locally in Boca Raton if you find yourself being served foreclosure documents.

 

Locally in the Miami metro we have continued to lead with the highest foreclosure activity for the large city category in the US, for the entire first quarter of 2013! Nearly one in early 79 residents in the area has received some type of foreclosure paperwork. The average for the Miami metro is more than three times the average in the US.  The Florida average broke down to approximately one in every 104 residents versus the national filing rate was one in approximately 296 residents. The bad news continues with foreclosure activity in Florida increasing seven percent during the first quarter from last year. Again, we at KS Law want to be your foreclosure attorney here in Florida if you find yourself getting behind in your payments.

 

This increase may be due to many lenders who have held off on pressing forward on foreclosures during the so called “ robo-signing scandal” Now that the there has been a legal settlement, lenders now have clear parameters on how to go forwarded with foreclosures and handling their backlog work.

 

If you have any questions about any legal filings you have received or you think you may be receiving shortly, contact us. We have hired premier attorneys that have specialized in handling foreclosure cases for the South Florida Metro. Contact us today to find out how we can help you!

Changes to Florida PIP Insurance

Posted on March 4, 2013 by brent123

January first of this year an amendment to the Florida PIP insurance law FL Statute 627.736 (No Default Law)  took affect.

While the mass majority of insurance premium payers are unlikely to notice an immediate change, it is important to notate these changes in the event of an an accident.

The premium payer will continue to be required to purchase a minimum of $10,000 worth of personal injury protection (PIP) coverage.  Under the protection will pay out 80 percent of medical expenses that are found to be necessary regardless of fault.

Initial services and care are only reimbursable if lawfully provided, supervised, ordered or prescribed by a licensed physician, licensed osteopathic physician, licensed chiropractic physician, licensed dentist, or must be rendered in a hospital, a facility that owns or is owned by a hospital, or a licensed emergency transportation and treatment provider within the first 14 days after the incident. Follow up services and care require a referral from such providers and must be consistent with the underlying medical diagnosis rendered when the individual received initial services and care. If these services are not preformed within the first 14 days of the incident the benefits are waived.

Additionally, one of the major revisions to the law is that if the injury sustained from the incident is not deemed “serious” then the maximum that can be received is $2,500 in PIP benefits.

These revisions are to help curb rampant insurance fraud that has taken place under the no-fault system.
