St. Petersburg Personal Injury Attorney
As a personal injury attorney in St. Petersburg, I, John R. Mathias, am dedicated to helping you secure the compensation you deserve after a severe injury. My personable and empathetic approach sets me apart. I keep my firm, The Law Offices of John R. Mathias, P.A., small by design. That way, I can provide clients like you with the personal attention that larger firms often cannot match. For example, I am available by phone 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including weekends, to address your concerns. Also, my door is always open when you need to stop by to talk. I handle cases on a contingency fee basis, so you pay nothing unless I win.

I handle a variety of personal injury cases to serve the community better. Here are some examples:
- Car accidents: Car accidents can cause significant injuries. I work to ensure you receive reasonable compensation for your medical bills and lost wages.

Understanding Damages
Florida civil law recognizes both economic and noneconomic damages. Economic damages cover measurable losses like medical bills and lost wages. Noneconomic damages address pain, suffering and loss of enjoyment of life. While these damages usually do not come with an invoice, they are just as painful and compensable. I will work with you to evaluate just how much harm you have suffered and what your claim is worth.
