Our Florida wrongful death attorneys are well-versed in the complex requirements of the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flsenate.gov\/Laws\/Statutes\/2023\/768.16\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> Florida Wrongful Death Act<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flsenate.gov\/Laws\/Statutes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Florida Statutes<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We are thoroughly familiar with these laws.

We serve families in Winter Park, Altamonte Springs, Lake Mary, and The Villages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Constitutes_a_Wrongful_Death_in_Florida\"><\/span>What Constitutes a Wrongful Death in Florida?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fiolinjurylaw.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/What-Constitutes-a-Wrongful-Death-in-Florida.webp\" alt=\"What Constitutes a Wrongful Death in Florida?\" class=\"wp-image-1656\" style=\"width:400px\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A wrongful death occurs when an individual loses their life as a result of another person's actions. The other person may have been negligent, reckless, or acted intentionally. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fiolinjurylaw.com\/orlando-car-accident-lawyer\/\">Car accidents<\/a> are one of the most common causes of death. Wrongful deaths can also result from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fiolinjurylaw.com\/tampa-medical-malpractice-lawyer\/\">medical malpractice<\/a>, workplace accidents, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fiolinjurylaw.com\/tampa-premises-liability-lawyer\/\">premises liability incidents<\/a>. Defective products can cause fatal injuries as well. The fatality must stem from actions that would have entitled the deceased to pursue a personal injury lawsuit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This means the person would have had a case if they had survived. Only eligible parties are permitted to file wrongful death claims. Eligible surviving family members or the estate's representative must file the case. These are civil lawsuits that seek financial compensation. They are separate from criminal prosecutions that could result in jail time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_is_Eligible_to_File_a_Wrongful_Death_Lawsuit_in_Orlando\"><\/span>Who is Eligible to File a Wrongful Death Lawsuit in Orlando?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Under Florida law, only one person can file a wrongful death lawsuit. This person is referred to as the personal representative of the deceased person's estate. The representative is usually named in the deceased's will. If there's no will, Florida courts will appoint someone to serve in this role. On behalf of qualifying surviving relatives, the personal representative files the claim for potential damages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Eligible survivors include the spouses, children, and parents of the deceased. Other relatives who depended on the deceased may also be eligible. Each surviving family member may recover different types of damages. The amount depends on their relationship with the deceased and their specific circumstances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Common_Causes_of_Wrongful_Death_in_Orlando\"><\/span>Common Causes of Wrongful Death in Orlando<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fiolinjurylaw.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Common-Causes-of-Wrongful-Death-in-Orlando.webp\" alt=\"Common Causes of Wrongful Death in Orlando\" class=\"wp-image-1658\" style=\"width:400px\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Motor_Vehicle_and_Pedestrian_Accidents\"><\/span>Motor Vehicle and Pedestrian Accidents<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Car and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fiolinjurylaw.com\/truck-accident-lawyers\/\">truck accidents<\/a> are the leading causes of wrongful deaths in Central Florida. Many auto accident fatalities happen because of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flhsmv.gov\/safety-center\/child-safety\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">dangerous driving behaviors<\/a>. Drunk drivers, distracted drivers, and reckless drivers cause these tragic crashes. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fiolinjurylaw.com\/motorcycle-accident-attorneys\/\">Motorcycle accident lawyers<\/a> handle cases where motorcycle collisions prove fatal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Motorcycle riders face significant risks because they often have limited protection during crashes. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fiolinjurylaw.com\/pedestrian-accident-lawyers\/\">Pedestrian<\/a> and bicycle accidents also cause many deaths each year. These incidents often occur when drivers neglect to yield. Some automobile accidents create problems with uninsured motorist car insurance coverage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Medical_Malpractice_and_Healthcare_Negligence\"><\/span>Medical Malpractice and Healthcare Negligence<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Medical malpractice cases involve fatal errors by healthcare providers during medical treatment. Surgical errors can lead to death on the operating table. Misdiagnosis and delayed treatment prevent patients from getting proper care. Medication mistakes can cause fatal reactions or overdoses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fiolinjurylaw.com\/nursing-home-abuse-lawyers\/\">Nursing home abuse<\/a> and neglect also cause preventable deaths among elderly residents. These cases require careful review of medical bills and medical records. We must prove the standard of care was violated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Workplace_and_Construction_Accidents\"><\/span>Workplace and Construction Accidents<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fiolinjurylaw.com\/practice-areas\/tampa-construction-accident-lawyer\/\">Construction site accidents<\/a> and workplace accidents claim many lives each year in Florida. Falls from heights are a common cause of death. Equipment failures and unsafe working conditions create deadly hazards for workers. Trucking company negligence can also lead to fatal crashes. These crashes involve large commercial vehicles that cause severe damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Defective_Products_and_Premises_Liability\"><\/span>Defective Products and Premises Liability<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Premises liability accidents happen when property owners fail to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/violence-against-children\/about\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">maintain safe conditions<\/a>. Dangerous areas can lead to fatal falls or other serious injuries. Defective product accidents involve faulty braking systems and defective airbags. These dangerous consumer products can kill unsuspecting users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dog bites can prove fatal in rare cases involving large animals. Negligent security accidents occur when property owners fail to provide adequate protection for their visitors. Watercraft accidents can also result in drowning deaths in Florida waters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Damages_Are_Available_in_a_Wrongful_Death_Lawsuit\"><\/span>What Damages Are Available in a Wrongful Death Lawsuit?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Surviving family members can recover both economic damages and non-economic damages in wrongful death claims. When negligence is egregious, punitive damages may be awarded to hold the offender accountable and prevent repeat behavior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Economic Damages Available:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Funeral expenses and funeral costs<\/strong> - Burial, cremation, and memorial service expenses<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Medical expenses<\/strong> - Costs related to the final injury or illness before death<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Lost income<\/strong> - Future financial support the deceased would have provided<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Value of services<\/strong> - Household tasks and care the deceased performed for the family<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Non-Economic Damages Available:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Mental pain and suffering<\/strong> - Emotional distress experienced by surviving family members<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Loss of companionship<\/strong> - The relationship and emotional support that was lost<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Loss of protection and guidance<\/strong> - Advice, care, and support that the deceased provided<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Long_Do_I_Have_to_File_a_Wrongful_Death_Claim_in_Florida\"><\/span>How Long Do I Have to File a Wrongful Death Claim in Florida?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fiolinjurylaw.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/How-Long-Do-I-Have-to-File-a-Wrongful-Death-Claim-in-Florida.webp\" alt=\"How Long Do I Have to File a Wrongful Death Claim in Florida?\" class=\"wp-image-1659\" style=\"width:400px\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Florida law generally requires wrongful death lawsuits to be initiated within a two-year window following the death. However, some exceptions apply depending on the specific circumstances of the case. Medical malpractice cases may have different deadlines under the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flsenate.gov\/Laws\/Statutes\/2023\/766.106\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Florida Tort Reform Act<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cases involving government entities or mass transit authorities may have shorter notice requirements. Acting quickly helps preserve important evidence and strengthens your wrongful death lawsuit. Federal Court cases may have different time limits that require immediate attention from experienced attorneys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Our_Wrongful_Death_Lawyers_Prove_Negligence\"><\/span>How Our Wrongful Death Lawyers Prove Negligence<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fiolinjurylaw.com\/orlando-personal-injury-lawyers\/\">personal injury attorneys<\/a> must prove four key elements to win your wrongful death case. First, we show the defendant owed a duty of care to your loved one. Second, we demonstrate how they breached that duty through negligent actions or failure to act properly. Third, we establish a direct link between their breach and the death that occurred. Fourth, we document the actual damages suffered by surviving family members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We gather police reports, witness testimony, expert opinions, and other crucial evidence during the discovery process. To build a compelling case for your family, our civil litigation team partners with medical experts, accident reconstruction specialists, and other key professionals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Emotional_and_Financial_Consequences_of_Losing_a_Loved_One\"><\/span>The Emotional and Financial Consequences of Losing a Loved One<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fiolinjurylaw.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/The-Emotional-and-Financial-Consequences-of-Losing-a-Loved-One.webp\" alt=\"The Emotional and Financial Consequences of Losing a Loved One\" class=\"wp-image-1660\" style=\"width:400px\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Losing a loved one creates overwhelming grief, trauma, and depression for surviving family members. The emotional impact affects every aspect of daily life and can last for many years. Financial instability often follows when families lose their primary income provider overnight. Children experience significant disruptions in their lives and emotional development, which can potentially impact their long-term success and well-being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Medical costs associated with the final illness or injury add to the financial burden that families must face. A successful wrongful death claim helps secure financial stability and provides some sense of closure for the family. The compensation cannot replace your loved one, but it can ease the financial stress during this incredibly difficult time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_You_Need_an_Orlando_Wrongful_Death_Lawyer\"><\/span>Why You Need an Orlando Wrongful Death Lawyer<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wrongful death claims present complex legal and emotional challenges, necessitating the expertise of skilled legal counsel. Insurers frequently attempt to reduce settlements or reject legitimate claims to safeguard their bottom line. Our personal injury lawyer protects your rights and fights for maximum compensation through skilled negotiation or trial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We handle all aspects of the legal process, including negotiating with challenging insurance adjusters and meeting stringent court deadlines.
