  • Your loved one’s physical pain and suffering
  • Your mental anguish
  • Funeral and burial costs
  • Loss of consortium
  • Loss of your loved one’s income
  • Your lost wages if you had to take time off to care for your loved one

What to Expect from Your Orlando Wrongful Death Case

Your lawyer will start by speaking with you to understand your situation. Then, they will lay out your options. This might include filing an insurance claim. To do so, we will investigate your loved one’s passing and how they were injured. Then, we could file a claim with the at-fault party’s insurance company.

We will negotiate for a fair settlement. If this does not produce an award, we can file a lawsuit against the at-fault party. Then, we would make your argument in court for a judgment.

We do not want you to pay for our services up front. Other firms might ask for a lump sum payment at the beginning or charge fees by the hour. We are not like that. Our team fights for you in part because we do not get paid until you do. Our attorney fees come out of a portion of your award.

How We Could Argue for Compensation

Your loved one could have suffered harm due to the following acts of negligence:

  • Failure to repair or remedy a hazard on the property
  • Negligent driving, such as by texting and driving
  • Failure to monitor or secure a dog
  • A defective or improperly repaired vehicle/vehicle part
  • Missing street sign or unrepaired traffic light

We could also make the case to the City of Orlando that the following intersections require attention, as they cause many fatal accidents every year:

  • I-4 and 408 Interchange
  • Central Florida Parkway and John Young Parkway
  • Aloma Avenue and Semoran Boulevard

Your Lawyer Can Establish Negligence

This action is the basis of most personal injury cases. Securing compensation for you will require showing that:

  • The other party had a duty of care to keep you safe.
  • The other party’s action or inaction violated the duty of care.
  • The other party’s violation caused the accident.
  • The accident caused you losses.

Your lawyer serving Orlando can explore all angles of your accident case. We want to secure justice for the wrongful death that occurred.

How Long do I Have to Take Action in My Case?

When filing an insurance claim, you have to keep to the deadline the company sets. If you decide to file a lawsuit, however, the story is different. You generally will have two years to file this kind of legal action in Florida. Florida Statutes § 95.11 states that families and personal representatives of deceased individuals can file these lawsuits.

If you fail to file the lawsuit in time, the court could throw out your case. You could lose your right to compensation.
