Choosing an Orlando Personal Injury Lawyer
Your Orlando Personal Injury Attorney should be well-versed in the personal injury laws for Orlando, Orange County, and Florida.
- Experienced
- Compassionate
- Well-Respected
There are certain types of cases in Orlando that have a limited amount of time for plaintiffs to file a lawsuit. Don’t take too much time playing the waiting game with insurance companies. It could work against you.
We work on a contingency. That means you do not get a bill from us for any costs or fees if we don’t win.
Interstate 4 – Which Runs Though Orlando – is One of the Most Dangerous Roads in the US
According to 2017 data put out by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, I-4 is the most dangerous road in the country. This 132-mile interstate connects Tampa, Orlando, and Daytona Beach.
Between 2011 and 2015, there were 165 fatalities on I-4, which is around 1.25 deaths per mile of road. Fatalities also continue to rise on I-4, with more than 79 crashes occurring on the interstate between 2015 and 2017.
The most dangerous parts of I-4 are these sections:
- Tampa,
- Plant City, and
- Orlando.
Orlando tops the list as the most dangerous part of I-4, with 19 deaths occurring in the city alone.
However, I-4 is not the only dangerous road in Florida. State Road 192, which connects Four Corners to Indialantic, ranks as the third most dangerous highway. I-95 also makes the list, with around 0.73 deaths per mile of road.
If you sustain injuries in an accident on I-4, especially around Orlando, discuss your options with an experienced Orlando car accident attorney.

The Abrahamson & Uiterwyk Attorneys and Injury Law Team
“A system of hiring an attorney on an hourly basis rewards inefficiency, creates delays and commonly creates negative issues between the lawyer and the client. Representing clients on a contingency basis in which the law firm earns a percentage of the settlement, however, is much more rewarding for the client and the injury attorneys.”
Client Services Manager
Kelly Anne Kelly
As a Client Services Manager, Kelly’s focus is to enhance client satisfaction by continuously looking for ways to fulfill clients’ needs and concerns.
