Orlando Personal Injury Attorneys Fighting For You
A serious injury can make it feel like your life is turned upside down. Not only are you dealing with constant pain, but you are also suddenly facing a mountain of medical bills and weeks out of work while you recover.
Having a caring and aggressive personal injury attorney on your side can make all the difference. At Wieland & DeLattre, we fight to recover the full compensation you deserve. Our attorneys will work with you personally at every step of your case to protect you and your family’s needs and future.
No Matter The Accident, You Have The Right To Hold Others Accountable And Seek Justice
Wieland & DeLattre has over three decades of experience representing injured individuals and families who have lost loved ones as a result of someone’s negligence and bad decisions after a wide range of accidents, including:
- Car accidents, the most common motor vehicle accidents on Florida roads
- Truck accidents, which are often complex and frequently produce devastating outcomes for motorists
- Motorcycle accidents that often involve high-risk and catastrophic injuries
- Slip-and-fall injuries from hazardous property conditions
- Bicycle accidents, which, even with helmets, can cause severe injuries to cyclists
- Construction site accidents, including injuries caused by a third party
- Product defects from improper manufacturing or design
Another party’s negligence in any of these cases can lead to life-changing or even fatal injuries that deserve compensation. It is our goal to recover the highest level of compensation available to you.
What Types Of Damages Are Available To Injury Victims?
After an injury, you deserve fair compensation for your losses. Personal injury accident victims in Orlando and throughout Florida can pursue several types of damages to help our clients recover financially and emotionally. Here’s what you might be entitled to:
- Medical expenses (past and future)
- Lost wages (past and future)
- Property damage
- Pain and suffering (past and future)
- Emotional distress
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Loss of consortium
Our attorneys work diligently to identify all possible damages in your case, ensuring nothing is overlooked when seeking the compensation you deserve.
What Factors Affect How Much A Settlement Is Worth?
Unlike the insurance companies, we put your best interests first. When evaluating a settlement offer, our experienced attorneys consider numerous factors that impact your case’s value. The factors include:
- Severity of your injuries
- Liability
- Medical treatment costs
- Future medical expenses
- Lost wages
- Inability to earn money in the future
- Permanent limitations
Lost wages and your ability to return to work also factor in. Insurance policy limits often create practical boundaries for recovery. Personal injury cases also consider less tangible damages such as pain and suffering. We carefully weigh all these elements to determine if an insurer’s offer truly reflects what you deserve.
How Long Do I Have To File A Personal Injury Claim In Orlando?
In Florida, you must act promptly after an injury. The statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is two years from the accident date. This means you have two years to file your lawsuit, or you may lose your right to compensation forever.
Some special circumstances can extend or shorten this time frame. For example, claims against government entities have additional requirements and shorter deadlines. We recommend contacting a lawyer as soon as possible after your injury to protect your rights and ensure that you meet all deadlines.
How Much Do Personal Injury Attorneys Cost?
We understand your financial concerns after an injury. Orlando personal injury attorneys work on a contingency fee system. This means you pay nothing upfront. Instead, we are only entitled to a fee if we win your case.
Our fee is a percentage of your settlement or verdict, depending on the complexity of your case and whether we go to trial. This arrangement allows anyone to access quality legal representation regardless of financial situation. We also cover case expenses during the process, recovering these costs only if we win your case.
