Orlando's More
Accident-Prone Areas.

Looking at Orlando automobile accident patterns, certain areas tend to experience a higher concentration of reported crashes.

Interstate 4 is one of the most heavily travelled corridors through Central Florida. Areas near Orlando Executive Airport and roadways including State Roads 482 and 435 also experience substantial motor vehicle traffic.

A crash can happen anywhere, but extra caution is particularly important in high-volume areas where congestion, merging traffic and unfamiliar drivers can increase risk.

Vehicles entering adjacent or opposing lanes without signaling.

Aggressive driving, including speeding.

04

Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

PURSUING COMPENSATION

How Do I Get Compensation
After A Car Accident?

After an Orlando accident, an injured person may initially make a claim through available automobile insurance coverage. Florida's insurance system contains rules that can affect which coverage responds first and what benefits may be available.

When insurance coverage does not fully address the losses caused by a serious collision, an injured person may also have the right to pursue compensation from the party responsible for the crash.

Every claim depends on its individual facts, available coverage, medical evidence and the circumstances surrounding the collision.

01
FLORIDA LAW

The Serious Injury Threshold.

Florida's no-fault automobile insurance framework generally means accident victims first look to their own available insurance benefits after a collision.

Florida law also provides circumstances in which an injured person may seek compensation from the at-fault driver when the injury satisfies the applicable legal threshold. Examples can include significant and permanent loss of an important bodily function, permanent injury, significant scarring or disfigurement, or death.

TIME MATTERS

Understanding The
Statute Of Limitations.

The right to pursue compensation after an injury does not last indefinitely. In many Florida negligence cases, the applicable filing period is two years from the date of the accident.

Different facts can affect the deadline that applies to a particular claim. Waiting too long can result in losing the ability to pursue compensation, which is why accident victims should seek legal guidance promptly when they believe they may have a claim.
