Tommy4Justice – Compassion, Expertise, Results

At Barnett Injury Law, we fight for individuals and families who have been injured due to someone else’s negligence. Whether it’s a slip-and-fall, medical malpractice, or wrongful death, you deserve more than compensation — you deserve an advocate who listens, cares, and relentlessly fights for the justice you’re owed.

Practice Area Highlights

Wrongful Death

Under Florida law, family members may file claims within two years. Damages may include funeral costs, lost income, pain and suffering, and companionship loss. These cases require swift, strategic legal action.

Pedestrian & Bicycle Accidents

Florida ranks high in pedestrian and bike-related accidents. TBIs occur in ~6% of pedestrian ER visits and account for over 50% of related deaths. We hold negligent drivers accountable and pursue full compensation for your injuries.

Slip & Fall / Premises Liability

Falls lead to over 8 million ER visits annually. In Florida, settlements can range from $75,000 to $175,000+. We investigate hazards and pursue liability for unsafe conditions.

Negligent Security

If inadequate security leads to injury from violence, you may have a case. HB 837 changed how fault is assessed, but property owners still owe a duty of protection. We hold them accountable.

Traumatic Brain Injuries

TBI cases require aggressive legal representation. We ensure all damages — both economic and emotional — are fully factored into your claim.

Medical Malpractice

Medical negligence can be life-altering. With no cap on non-economic damages in Florida, your case could result in a major settlement. We’ve seen verdicts reach $1.2M to $30M+ in recent years.

Birth Injuries

We pursue justice for birth injuries like cerebral palsy and Erb’s palsy. These cases require deep legal and medical knowledge, and Florida law allows for significant compensation.
