Property Insurance Claims Litigation
If your property insurance company wrongly denied your claim, underpaid your claim, or acted in bad faith, turn to us. Also, if you were the victim of an insurance agent's negligence or if you have any other related concerns, we can help. Our firm provides practical advice and superior legal representation in the following matters, among others:
- Recovering full and fair compensation in hurricane claims, tornado claims, water damage claims, sewage backup claims, steam damage claims, condensation/moisture damage claims, hail claims, sinkhole claims, failed sinkhole repair claims, fire claims and other disaster claims
- Obtaining money to cover the loss of business income or rent related to building damage
- Filing Civil Remedy Notices and initiating insurance bad faith litigation
- Pursuing claims against negligent insurance agents, contractors, engineers, and other parties
Nursing Home Abuse and Medical Malpractice
In Tampa, Florida, state law gives elderly people the right to appropriate and comprehensive health care. When an abusive nursing home violates these rights, our law office, Stockham Law Group, P.A., intervenes. Whether a negligent assisted living facility makes money more important than treatment or a poorly trained staff member uses an unsafe procedure that results in injuries, nursing home abuse and medical malpractice attorney James Ragano advocates for clients and their families. James and his staff evaluate cases and determine if falls, bed sores, dehydration or overmedication are caused by abuse. If so, we hold the negligent parties accountable and seek compensation for our clients. If an inadequate settlement is offered, we pursue the matter vigorously in court.
Beyond taking action against unlawful nursing homes, our law office also provides general counsel for medical malpractice. When a doctor makes a mistake or displays apathy, the consequences can be devastating. Unfortunately for the patients harmed, these providers are also equipped with high-powered attorneys who stop at nothing to protect the bottom line. Our firm is not intimidated by medical insurers or by their defense teams. We go the distance to recover the damages for clients. To understand your legal options, we invite you to call or contact us for a free case review with a seasoned attorney.

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level
- - Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials
- - How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost
- - How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City
- - Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
