How We Build Personal Injury Cases in Miami

Insurance companies and hospital systems have substantial resources. We don’t back down from them. When a fair resolution can’t be reached through negotiation, we take cases to trial, and that willingness shapes how we build every case from the start.

We work with medical professionals, financial analysts, and life-care planners to document the full scope of what our clients have lost and what they’ll need going forward. That foundation supports real leverage, whether in settlement discussions or in front of a Miami-Dade jury. Our network of local counsel allows us to coordinate litigation across state lines when a case demands it.

Jed Kurzban was selected to the Super Lawyers selectee since 2019. He authored How Justice Is Served, a book on trial law covering the three phases of a personal injury case, and has served on the Board of Directors of the Florida Justice Association, lobbying on medical malpractice and victim-rights issues in Florida. He also served as vice chair of the Dade County Bar Association’s Trial Section.

Personal Injury Cases We Handle in Miami

Our firm represents clients whose injuries fall into some of the most serious categories under Florida law:

• Catastrophic injury: Cases involving paralysis, organ failure, burn injuries, brain trauma, and other permanent, life-altering harm
• Medical malpractice: Surgical monitoring failures, missed diagnoses, birth injuries, delayed diagnoses, and related negligence by healthcare providers
• Wrongful death: Claims on behalf of families who have lost a loved one due to someone else’s negligence
• Product liability: Injuries caused by defective or dangerous products

We also represent families in government-liability claims. In one case, a Department of Transportation truck driver fell asleep and fatally struck a father of two on a Miami sidewalk. We represented the family and ultimately secured compensation through a special act of the Florida Legislature.

Miami Results That Demonstrate What We Do

Our record in Miami-Dade courts and the Florida Legislature reflects what this firm does in practice, not just in principle.

• $5.7 million jury verdict in Miami after proving a missed diagnosis of kidney disease
• $7.2 million verdict holding a hospital and anesthesiologist liable for failing to monitor a patient during surgery
• $2.3 million settlement against two construction companies for their role in causing the death of a 20-year-old man

Kurzban Kurzban Tetzeli & Pratt holds an AV Preeminent® rating from Martindale-Hubbell and has earned national and international recognition for trial advocacy.
