Florida has specific rules on deadlines, shared fault, and insurance coverage that decide how much you can recover. We explain how they apply to your case, at no cost, in your language.
Full Florida workplace injuries guideOcoee questions
Where is my Ocoee injury case filed?
Ocoee is in Orange County, so injury lawsuits are filed in the Ninth Judicial Circuit at the Orange County Courthouse in downtown Orlando. That holds whether your address is inside Ocoee's city limits or in one of the unincorporated Orange County pockets that share the Ocoee mailing address. Most cases settle before suit, but we prepare each one for that courtroom.
I was hurt at work but worry about my immigration status. Can I still file a claim?
Yes. Florida workers' compensation and third-party injury claims do not depend on your immigration status, and your information stays protected. Depending on how you were hurt, you may have a workers' compensation claim, a lawsuit against a negligent third party, or both. You will always speak with a bilingual attorney.
Who writes the crash report if I am hit in Ocoee, and when can I get it?
It depends on where you were hit. The Ocoee Police Department works crashes on city streets, the Orange County Sheriff's Office covers the unincorporated areas around the city, and the Florida Highway Patrol handles Florida's Turnpike and SR-429. Under Florida law a crash report stays confidential for 60 days, but the people involved and their attorneys can get it right away, so we request yours immediately rather than waiting.
