Pensacola Injury and Car Accident Lawyer
Dedicated to Accident and Injury Victims Across Pensacola Since 2011
At Michael E. Fenimore, P.A., we focus entirely on accident and injury cases. Our experience covers a wide range of matters, including car accidents, trucking collisions, motorcycle crashes, slip and fall incidents, wrongful death, brain injuries, medical malpractice, nursing home neglect, product defects, and more. If someone else's carelessness upended your life, we are here to help you fight for everything you are owed.
A serious accident can change the direction of your life in a single moment.
The physical pain, the mounting medical bills, the time away from work, and the uncertainty of what comes next can feel impossible to manage all at once. Then the legal process begins, and the pressure only grows. As your legal representative, we take that weight off your shoulders so you can concentrate on getting better while we handle the fight.
When the stakes are this high, you need an experienced Pensacola injury attorney who is genuinely in your corner.
Insurance companies move quickly after accidents. They reach out early, make fast settlement offers, and count on you not yet knowing the full value of your case before you sign anything. Your medical needs, lost wages, and pain and suffering can grow significantly over time, and a rushed settlement will not account for any of that. Having an experienced Pensacola injury and car accident lawyer on your side before you agree to anything gives you the information and leverage to make smart decisions. We provide a clear, honest assessment of your case so you understand exactly what it is worth and what it will take to get there.

Types of Compensation You May Be Entitled to After an Accident
Victims of serious accidents in Pensacola may be entitled to compensation that covers both financial losses and non-financial harm. These include medical expenses, lost income, future care costs, and compensation for pain and suffering. When an injury results in permanent disability or lasting emotional trauma, the value of your claim can increase substantially.
Additional damages may include loss of earning capacity, ongoing rehabilitation costs, and, in cases involving married victims, loss of consortium for the spouse. Every accident case is different, and our team carefully evaluates all aspects of your situation to make sure every available form of compensation is identified and pursued.
How the Value of an Accident or Injury Claim Is Determined
The value of your claim depends on several factors, including the severity of your injuries, how they affect your life going forward, and how clearly fault can be established. Some of the key considerations include:
The severity and permanence of your injuries
Your need for long-term medical care or assistive equipment
How long your recovery takes and how much work you miss as a result
The degree of pain, suffering, and emotional distress involved
Loss of enjoyment of life or ability to carry out normal daily activities
Available insurance coverage and the strength of the liability evidence
Insurance companies routinely try to undervalue accident claims. At Fenimore Injury Law, we fight to make sure your compensation reflects the full scope of your losses, now and in the future.
Steps to Take After a Serious Accident or Injury
The actions you take in the hours and days after an accident can have a major impact on the strength of your case. Here is what we recommend:
Seek medical attention right away, even if your injuries feel minor at first.
Document everything you can: photos of injuries, the accident scene, vehicle damage, and any other relevant details.
Keep records of all medical visits, treatments, and related expenses.
Do not give a recorded statement to the other party's insurance company before speaking with a lawyer.
Contact an experienced Pensacola injury attorney as soon as possible to protect your rights and preserve your options.
If you are not sure what your next step should be, that is exactly what we are here for. Reach out to our office and we will walk you through everything from the very first call.
