Justice and client compensation are the two chief goals of this Hallandale Beach Personal Injury Lawyer.

The population of Hallandale Beach was 37,113 as of the year 2010, so it is a relatively large City. 39,500 people lived in Hallandale Beach as of 2016, so the City is growing. Mr. Quackenbush represents many of these people in their personal injury cases.

The motto of the City of Hallandale Beach is “Progress. Innovation. Opportunity. City of Choice.” There is one zip code in the City.

The City was settled around 1895, incorporated as a Town in 1927, incorporated as the City of Hallandale in 1947, and incorporated as the City of Hallandale Beach in 1999.

Hallandale is governed by a City Commission and run by a City Manager. It has a Mayor, a Vice Mayor, three City Commissioners, and a City Clerk. Lawsuits against the City must be approved by the City Commission. These are referred to as cases of “sovereign immunity.” Sovereign immunity cases carry with them certain restrictions and limitations. These include notice requirements and caps on the amounts of damages that can be recovered by the injured person. Specifically, if you’ve been hurt by a city, a county or the State, typically the most you’ll be able to recover is $200,000. The only exception to this comes in the form of a “claims bill” – a type of legislation in Tallahassee.

Mr. Quackenbush also represents clients who have been injured in casinos and other business establishments. These are referred to as cases of premises liability and include slip & fall and trip and fall cases. They also include negligent security cases. Negligent security cases result when a business entity does not provide adequate or proper security, a crime results and you are injured. The negligent security case will be strongest if the incident occurred in a high crime area. After all, in that case, it can easily be argued that the business establishment should have known that security was required.

Hallandale Beach was founded when Henry Flagler recruited a relative of one of his employees to found a settlement close to Dania, Florida. By the year 1900, a dozen families lived in the area. The first school was built in the City in 1904. The first Church was built in 1906. Hallandale Beach was originally mainly a farming community.

When it was incorporated in 1927, Hallandale became the eight municipality in Broward County. 1500 people lived in the area at the time. In 1947, when it was reincorporated as the City of Hallandale, it annexed land lying along the Atlantic Ocean.

Hallandale Beach is therefore a kid/family friendly City. Mr. Quackenbush represents children in their personal injury cases, although their parents must typically act as the “Plaintiff” and carry on the lawsuit. When the case has been settled, frequently it must be approved by a judge and can end up in a “structured settlement” – in which funds are distributed once the minor becomes an adult and then in regular installments.

The median income for a household in Hallandale Beach was $28,266 as of 2012. The median income for a family was $37,171. When you’ve been injured in an accident, you may not be able to work. In order to compensate you for that loss, Mr. Quackenbush may pursue a “lost wage” claim. If it appears that you may not be able to work in the future, he may pursue a “loss of future earning capacity claim.”

Future wage losses are difficult to predict. In order to help with this, Mr. Quackenbush may hire a “vocational rehabilitation” expert who will evaluate you, your job, and attempt to predict how much, if any, you’ll be able to work in the future. He may also hire an expert called an “economist,” who will try to quantify these damages and determine how much money you will lose as a result of not being able to work.
