"I am so very grateful to have had this firm represent me. I was in a car accident a few years ago, but the car insurance company of the person who totaled my car would not replace my car, nor pay for my medical bills. We ended up going to court and because of Mr. Pickett, we won the case. Thank you so much for all you did for us!!!!"

You May Be Entitled to Punitive Damages
Your collision may warrant punitive damages. These damages offer more than financial restitution; they punish the other party for their negligent, reckless, intentional, and/or criminal actions. Florida Statutes § 768.72 awards punitive damages in cases where the defendant displayed intentional misconduct or gross negligence.
What Is Intentional Misconduct?
Intentional miscounted means that the perpetrator:
- Had actual knowledge that their conduct was wrong
- Knew their actions could harm others
- Chose to engage in misconduct anyway
What Is Gross Negligence?
Gross negligence means that the defendant’s conduct was so reckless that it disregarded the rights, safety, or lives of other people.
Drunk driving cases usually fit the bill for punitive damages as drunk drivers are aware of the potential consequences of driving intoxicated. After evaluating your injury claim, your lawyer can explain more.
