A happy vacation can turn into sadness, pain, and uncertainty when you are injured at an Orlando theme park. If you are visiting from another state, you may be unsure of how to proceed to hold the at-fault parties accountable for your losses.
By working with DWK Law, an experienced Orlando personal injury attorney, you can get the superior legal representation you need without worrying about how to tackle big amusement park companies.
When you partner with an Orlando amusement park accident lawyer from DWK Law, you have access to over three decades’ worth of training, experience, and knowledge regarding Florida personal injury law. Each member of our team focuses on addressing your needs and building a case tailored to your specific circumstances. Regardless of how severe your injury or where it occurred, your Orlando personal injury attorney can put their background in negotiating insurance settlements to work to secure the compensation you deserve.
We begin with a free consultation to discuss your injury, then get to work identifying who is to blame and how to hold them accountable. Large theme parks employ teams of attorneys to defend their interests against claims, but we are not afraid of big corporations. When your case requires more, we also prepare materials to litigate it in Orange County Civil Court.
Using carefully gathered and presented evidence, we establish negligence and persuade the court of your claim’s validity. We calculate the full value of every loss and provide documentation for your current and projected medical costs. Above all, we do this while supporting you every step of the way so you can concentrate on your physical and emotional recovery. In our minds, the answer to “Why choose us?” is that we are the powerful legal advocate you deserve.
| Right to hire an injury lawyer: You have the right to work with a personal injury attorney who can investigate the details of your accident and put together evidence to support your claim after a theme park injury. |
| Right to file a claim: As an injured patron, you can seek compensation through an insurance policy claim or civil lawsuit with the help of a theme park accident attorney. You may file against an individual ride operator, the theme park company, or any other liable party. |
| Right to seek damages: You can seek compensation for various losses sustained as a result of your injury, such as lost income, medical bills, property damage, and pain and suffering. |
| Right to negotiate a fair settlement: Amusement park accidents are bad for theme parks, and they will often settle to prevent publicity. However, they will not always make a fair offer, and you have the right to negotiate for an appropriate amount to pay for your damages. |
The International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions (IAAPA) declares that your chances of being hurt at popular theme parks are only one in every 15.5 million rides. Yet, amusement park injuries are often severe and result in substantial medical costs and treatment. The Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS) produces a quarterly update regarding injuries and illnesses at Central Florida theme parks, showing that these incidents are more common than you might expect.
The popularity of theme parks in Central Florida draws many locals and visitors each year, so handling your case when you return to another state can be complicated. Fortunately, your DWK Law amusement park injury attorney can keep you updated on your claim’s progress and manage much of the work on your behalf.
There are numerous other ways you may suffer injury at Florida theme parks, including:
“Natalie Sherman, Esq….helped me navigate my personal injury case with the utmost professionalism and diligence. She managed all communications on my behalf efficiently and explained every step to me in a very concise manner. She provided me guidance and specific knowledge of the litigation and insurance claim processes, while also listening to and addressing each of my concerns and requests to be sure I felt comfortable with the final result.”

“I was referred to this firm by another lawyer, and I have done business with them for a few years. Kyle Morat was my lawyer. He and his paralegal returned all my calls and correspondence quickly and gave my case the attention it needed. I hope that I will never need Kyle’s services again but am eternally grateful he and the whole firm were there.”

“I had a really great experience with this awesome team. They made me feel comfortable every step of the way and scored a huge win. Thank you so much!”

Insurance companies are for-profit businesses, and they do not like paying out more than necessary. Theme parks also include fine print declaring they are not responsible if you are hurt when you purchase tickets and accommodations. Despite these factors, your theme park injury attorney at DWK Law will demand that you receive full compensation from those responsible.
We conduct a thorough investigation and collect evidence to demonstrate who is liable, the extent of your injuries, and the full cost of your claim. If you are disabled from your accident, we include compensation demands to cover your future expenses, including lost wages and nursing care. If you die, we can help your family file a wrongful death or survival action to recover the financial resources they need to live life without you.
A critical law that can affect your theme park injury claim is Chapter 768 Section 81 – 2011 Florida Statutes. It describes the legal doctrine of comparative negligence, allowing the court to assign fault to multiple parties in a personal injury case. While this could help you if more than one entity is to blame, it can also work against you if you had any part in your injury.
For example, suppose you had a pre-existing condition but elected to ride an attraction after reading warning signs that indicated you could suffer more injury. The theme park’s attorneys may argue that you are over 50% at fault. Under the law, if you receive 50% or more of the blame, you cannot seek compensation.
If you are less at fault, such as 20%, this will reduce your settlement or jury award by the same amount. Your DKW Law attorney will fight hard to limit your fault in your case to maximize your compensation. Use our online form to arrange a free consultation or call (407) 244-3000 today.
We understand you will already be facing big bills after being injured at an Orlando amusement park, so we work to reduce your worries about how much a personal injury lawyer costs. We start with a free case review so you can discuss your claim, then offer a contingency fee plan once we accept you as a client. Contingency means you only pay our fees when we secure a settlement for you. If we do not win, you do not pay.
The time it takes to settle a personal injury case depends on many elements, including the severity of your injuries, the quality of the evidence you can present, and how difficult the settlement negotiations are. Generally, you can expect a case to take anywhere from several months to a few years, depending on whether you must go to trial. No matter how much time it takes, you can count on DWK Law to work carefully and diligently to secure the best possible outcome in your situation.
Yes, you must file your personal injury lawsuit in Florida within the two-year statute of limitations. If you wait too long, the court may bar you from seeking compensation against those responsible for your injury. When you contact us right away, we can ensure you do not miss this critical deadline.
