Miami is a hotspot for vintage, classic, and historic cars. Florida residents love collecting cars from decades past and with no ice and snow, the state is the ideal place to enjoy a beautiful collector car.

The trouble with short-term injuries is that they can still be debilitating and can end up lasting longer than expected. A bone fracture, for example, may take longer to heal that expected or an open wound may get infected, delaying a patient’s return to work.

In most cases, you do have the right to switch attorneys. Plaintiffs may take this step when they cannot get their attorney to return emails or calls or when they have a difference of opinion about the direction of the case. Some plaintiffs switch attorneys because they have concerns about the strategy an attorney is using or because they are not happy with where their claim is going (or isn’t going).
