Welcome
At the Law Offices of Deborah J. Higgins, LLC, we zealously assist clients with personal injury claims of all kinds, personal chapter 7 or 13 bankruptcy anywhere in the State of Florida, wrongful death, catastrophic medical malpractice, social security disability, debt collection defense, and family law. If you are outside the state, we will assist you in obtaining counsel in another state.
Under the category of personal injury we handle all types of automobile accidents (motor cycles, trucks, cars, pedestrians, and so on). Wrongful death may arise from an automobile accident, medical malpractice, a slip and fall, or another way. We handle all types wrongful death claims.
The types of medical malpractice claim we handle are those where the patient has suffered at least $500,000 in damages. This is so because the cost of bringing a medical malpractice claim to trial can easily cost $350,000 to $400,000 or more.
We handle both chapter 7 and chapter 13 personal bankruptcies and will assist you in finding the right lawyer for the job if you need a business bankruptcy. The court oversees how much bankruptcy attorneys charge debtors for filing their bankruptcy cases and has even issued an administrative order with suggested reasonable fees to charge. We charge in accordance with the reasonable fee. In many cases we are able to raise the money to pay the fees with suits under the F.D.C.P.A. and similar statutes where the creditor pays the attorney’s fees and costs.
Many types of cases do not require attorneys’ fees up front. For example, personal injury claims wrongful death, catastrophic medical malpractice, social security disability, debt collection defense are all paid out of the money we obtain for you as settlement, i.e. NO ATTORNEYS’ FEES UP FRONT.
Rest assured, you have our experience and compassion zealously at work for you when you call the Law Offices of Deborah J. Higgins, LLC.
