Hialeah

Hialeah is the sixth-largest city in Florida with more than 220,000 residents. Around 75% of them are of Cuban heritage, making for the largest percentage of Cuban residents compared to any other city in the United States. More than 95% of Hialeah residents have reported that they speak Spanish to some extent, which could be one of the reasons why Spanish-speaking TV powerhouse, Telemundo, decided to have its headquarter there.

Responsibility for Crime Accidents in Hialeah

Remember that if you are a murder survivor, you can still recover for the damages you’ve suffered due to the crime that caused the wrongful death of your loved one. The procedure for compensation is limited by Florida law in terms of who can bring an action and the types of damages that are recoverable.

Whether you are a survivor or the one who has been directly injured in the criminal attack, there are several possibilities for damages recovery to consider.

If you want to recover without going to court, you should head to the Florida Bureau of Victim Compensation. It doesn’t matter if there are ongoing criminal or civil proceedings against the assailant. If you prove that you’ve been injured due to a criminal act in Florida, they may compensate for some of your losses and damages. Unfortunately, this fund rarely provides full compensation.

If law enforcement authorities catch the assailant and take him to court, once he is convicted, he may owe you a restitution for your medical and non-medical expenses related to the personal injuries caused by his deed.

The last option to consider depends greatly on details of your specific case. If the crime has occurred on premises under a third person’s control, the third person (or corporation) may be liable for the injuries and damages under the Florida premises liability and negligence laws. Nightclubs, bars, malls, banks, stores, banks, gas stations, and others owe invitees, guests and customers a duty of care. They have to take all the reasonable measures to prevent any personal injuries on their premises. When they fail in doing so, they can be liable for the injuries. When a criminal assault has occurred on a third person’s premises due to his negligence, that person or corporation may be legally responsible for the sustained injuries.
