Types of Airport Accident Cases Chalik & Chalik Injury Lawyers Represents

Moving through an airport means traversing lobbies, security, flight check-ins, baggage claim, ground transportation, and many other areas. Airport accident cases our law firm accepts include:

• Faulty luggage carousels at baggage claim
• Flawed or malfunctioning elevators or escalators
• Airport construction and remodeling projects
• Falls involving construction or remodeling debris
• Various airport equipment accidents

Slip and fall and other premises liability accidents in Tampa’s airport can also occur due to spills, slick or slippery floors, and physical contact with airport personnel in the following areas:

• Golf carts
• Trams
• Shuttle buses
• Moving walkways
• Food courts 
• Retail stores
• Stairwells

Not every injury you suffer in an airport will entitle you to damages. Still, our Tampa slip and fall injury lawyer will review your case for free. We start by listening to your version of the events that led to your accident and identifying the elements of negligence that allow you to seek damages.

Evidence We Compile to Substantiate Your Airport Accident Case in Tampa, FL

Airport accidents and other personal injury cases rely on evidence to tell our team and the at-fault party’s team what happened. The evidence we collect at the scene can establish the at-fault party’s negligence and the accident’s costs, including:

• Incident reports
• First responder reports
• Medical records
• Salary history records
• Injury photos
• Accident scene photos
• Witness statements
• Airport security tapes

We will compile and organize the evidence and submit it to the at-fault party and their insurer. In addition to using it to prove your case, we also seek to negotiate a settlement versus a potentially lengthy trial.

Recoverable Damages Our Lawyers for Tampa Airport Accident Victims

Our case assessment team takes time to assess the monetary value of the accident and injuries. We can make a detailed list of your recoverable damages and the bills and receipts that support their value.

Economic and non-economic damages we could request on your behalf include:

• Past, present, and future medical treatment expenses
• Past, present, and future losses of income
• Physical and emotional pain and suffering
• Disfiguring and disabling injuries
• Repair or replacement of damaged personal property

Your Tampa Airport Accident Case Must Comply With Florida’s Filing Deadline

Florida’s personal injury statute of limitations recently changed from four years to two years, meaning you have less time to file your lawsuit. You now generally have two years to file your personal injury or wrongful death lawsuit, per Florida Statutes § 95.11.

The statute of limitations is complex, however, and can have various exceptions, per Florida Statutes § 95.051 that alter the filing deadline. Our personal injury law firm can handle this mandatory part of your case, giving you one less thing to think about. We also accept your case on a contingency fee basis, meaning you can get started right away without upfront costs.
