General Civil Litigation

Chane Socarras, PLLC and its trial attorneys  regularly handle a wide range of general civil law and litigation disputes in state and federal courts throughout Florida, including various personal injury, premises liability, negligent security, wrongful death, construction matters, condominium/homeowners’ associations, insurance related claims and coverage issues.  The firm has successfully prosecuted and defended liability, first and third party insurance claims, disability claims, property damage claims, and other insurance related matters.

Chane Socarras, PLLC represent individuals and their families that are catastrophically injured or have lost a loved one due to the negligence of others.  When you are hurt and seriously injured through no fault of your own, the results can be devastating. A personal injury or loss of a loved one can also impact the financial and emotional well-being of you and your family.  We offer a free initial consultation to discuss your case and see if we can assist you or your family through such difficult times. We will consult with you or your family about your options, and explain the costs and the potential for success in your case.   If you are injured or involved in a serious crash or accident due to the negligence or acts of another, it is important to call an experienced attorney as soon as possible, so that you can receive the most effective representation and immediately protect your interests. The firm’s approach to every case is to investigate and thoroughly prepare your case so that it can be effectively presented to the court and a jury at trial, if necessary. That intensive preparation has allowed the trial lawyers at Chane Socarras, PLLC to obtain positive results for our injured clients. Most importantly, if we represent you in your personal injury or wrongful death case, you are not responsible for any legal fees or costs unless we are successful in your case.

What differentiates Chane Socarras, PLLC from other personal injury law firms is that its practice is not based on quantity, but quality, allowing the firm to provide you superb and complete personal attention and keep you informed throughout the progress of your case.  Further, the firm’s lawyers negotiate with insurance companies and adjusters, not legal assistants, clerks, or paralegals.  Our trial lawyers are personally involved in every case, speak directly to you, and our clients are not left in the dark about what is happening with their case.

Personal injury and wrongful death law covers any wrong, harm, injury or damage caused by one person or entity to another person, whether it is to their body, property, reputation, or rights. Injuries or death can happen while in a collision with a motor vehicle, such as an ATV, boat, Jet-ski, automobile, motorcycle, truck, or as a result of a faulty product or a faulty repair, because you slipped and fell on pavement or a wet floor, or because you tripped due to a property or construction defect.  It can also be caused by the negligence of a professional such as a doctor, lawyer, or accountant. The injury can be physical, financial, or psychological, but, to have a case, it must occur due to the negligence or unreasonably unsafe actions of another person, such as another driver, employer, a manufacturer, your landlord, or some other person or organization who owes you a duty of standard or ordinary care. Depending on the circumstances of your case, you may be able to seek compensation for your past and future medical expenses, past and future pain and suffering, lost wages, and loss of future earning capacity. Your loved ones may also have a claim even though they were not physically involved in accident.
