What to Expect from Your Orlando Wrongful Death Case
Your lawyer will begin by having a conversation with you to comprehend your specific situation. Our attorneys approach this with understanding and empathy, seeking to understand the financial difficulties you may be facing, the emotional distress you are experiencing, and any other challenges resulting from the loss you have suffered.
Afterward, we will explain the choices available to you, which may involve filing an insurance claim or initiating a lawsuit. Our team will conduct a comprehensive investigation into the circumstances surrounding your loved one’s passing and the resulting harm. We will offer transparent and truthful guidance, but ultimately, you have the final decision on how we move forward with your case.
In every Orlando wrongful death case, our legal team aims to negotiate for a fair settlement. If the negotiation process does not result in a satisfactory outcome, we are prepared to file a lawsuit against the parties responsible. If the parties found to be at fault still refuse to provide you with a fair compensation, we are ready to take your case to trial.
You will not have to pay for our services upfront. Some other firms may require you to make a large payment at the beginning or charge you by the hour. However, that’s not the case with us. At our Law Firm, we will only receive a fee if we are successful in obtaining compensation for you.
Legal Arguments in Orlando Wrongful Death Cases
In wrongful death cases, our legal team has presented various arguments, including:
- Claiming that a property owner did not fix or address a dangerous condition on their property.
- Asserting that a driver who was not paying attention, like texting while driving, acted in a dangerous manner.
- Arguing that a pet owner did not properly supervise or secure their dog.
- Alleging that a manufacturer produced a vehicle or vehicle part that was defective or not properly repaired.
- Contending that a city did not fix a faulty street sign or traffic light.
If it is relevant to your situation, we could also argue that the City of Orlando failed in its responsibility to you by not repairing faulty equipment at intersections or interchanges, such as:
- The I-4 and 408 Interchange.
- The intersection of Central Florida Parkway and John Young Parkway.
- The intersection of Aloma Avenue and Semoran Boulevard.

Your Lawyer Can Establish Negligence

- The other party’s violation caused the accident
- The accident caused your damages

How Long do I Have to Take Action in My Case?
When you file an insurance claim, it is important to adhere to the deadline set by the insurance company. However, the situation is different if you choose to file a lawsuit. In Florida, you typically have a period of two years to initiate this type of legal action. According to Florida Statutes § 95.11, personal representatives of the deceased are eligible to file these lawsuits.
If you do not file the lawsuit within the specified time limit, the court may dismiss your case. This means that you could lose your opportunity to seek compensation for your losses.
