J.D. was stopped at a red light on her way to work when a tractor trailer violently struck her vehicle from behind. Despite the clear nature of the crash, the Defendant refused to accept responsibility. J.D. entrusted her case to Octavio L. Martinez. Working with accident reconstruction specialists, vocational experts, and detailed medical illustrations, Mr. Martinez demonstrated the full impact of J.D.’s injuries and the long-term consequences of the crash. After extensive advocacy, he secured a settlement of $4,425,000 on her behalf.

On January 29, 2018, C.M. was driving home from an evening soccer game when another vehicle—apparently racing—ran a red light and t-boned his car. He sustained significant injuries. While the at-fault driver immediately tendered their minimal policy limits, C.M.’s own Underinsured Motorist coverage became essential. Although the Underinsured Motorist carrier initially offered $750,000, our firm presented compelling medical evidence and illustrations demonstrating the extent of C.M.’s damages. The insurer ultimately tendered its full policy limits, bringing C.M.’s total recovery to $1,360,000, without the need for protracted litigation.

H.G. was enjoying a bicycle ride with his wife when a motorist failed to yield and struck him, causing a deep arm laceration and a back injury. The at-fault driver carried minimal insurance, which was quickly tendered. However, the Underinsured Motorist carrier disputed the value of his claim, forcing our firm to litigate. Through persistent advocacy, we were able to obtain a total recovery of $335,000 for H.G.

While loading groceries into his pickup truck in the Florida Keys, J.P. was suddenly pinned against his tailgate by a vehicle backing out of a parking space. He was airlifted to a nearby hospital due to the unknown severity of his injuries. Though he ultimately avoided permanent harm, J.P. incurred substantial medical expenses and endured significant pain. Correa & Martinez successfully recovered $212,500 on his behalf, ensuring his medical costs were fully covered and that he received fair compensation.

I.S. was volunteering at a church event when her skirt and stockings ignited due to an open flame on a cooking burner. She suffered serious burns to her legs. Attorney Octavio L. Martinez established that the facility negligently permitted an exposed flame and failed to warn participants about the risk of loose clothing. Mr. Martinez secured a $400,000 recovery, providing meaningful compensation for her injuries.

Correa & Martinez represented the family of a 7-year-old girl who broke her arm after falling from a ride at Dandy Bear, a local kids’ party and amusement center. The family turned to us for help after Dandy Bear refused to take responsibility for what happened. We filed a lawsuit. As part of building the case, we brought in an expert on amusement rides, who discovered that the ride in question didn’t meet important safety standards. Even with that evidence, Dandy Bear’s insurance company offered just $10,000—a fraction of what was fair. While the child’s injury wasn’t life-threatening, she still deserved meaningful compensation for her injuries. Attorneys Octavio Martinez and Andres Correa took the case to trial. The jury agreed with us, finding Dandy Bear at fault. They awarded the family over $122,000.

When Hurricane Irma hit, our clients took shelter with family to stay safe. But when they returned home, they discovered storm damage: their fence had been knocked down, and a crack in the front door had let water seep inside, ruining their floors. Their insurance company agreed to cover the fence, which was under the deductible, but refused to pay anything for the damaged door or the water-damaged floors. Believing they deserved coverage, we filed a lawsuit on behalf of the homeowners. During the case, the insurance company asked the judge to dismiss it entirely—and unfortunately, the judge sided with them, offering them $0. Though the damages were not huge, we believed in our clients' claim and felt the judge had made the wrong call. So we brought in appellate counsel and took the case to the Third District Court of Appeal. Thankfully, the appeals court agreed with us and overturned the judge’s decision. Even then, the insurance company still refused to settle. So we went to trial. Attorneys Octavio Martinez and Andres Correa presented the case to a jury, and the jury agreed: our clients' damages were covered under the policy. Because of the dedication and determination of Correa & Martinez, our clients finally got the compensation they were owed.
