Wrongful Death: Truck Accident Lawsuits On Horizon After Pileup in Florida

Numerous people are expected to file lawsuits, including for wrongful death, shortly after a pileup involving multiple 18 Wheelers in Orlando, Florida this past week. The potential Plaintiffs are sifting through all of the evidence and facts to determine exactly who will be named as Defendants in the lawsuit. It is a foregone conclusion that one or more of the tractor trailer drivers and their respective companies will be named in the complaint.

The pileup involved a couple of minivans and one of the potential plaintiffs is barely hanging on with life support. Florida officials were in the process and in fact did start a fire to burn dry brush, so the State could be named as a Defendant. Time will tell. No matter who are ultimately named as Defendants in this wrongful death lawsuit, it is sad and tragic.

Accidents like these could and should be avoided. If you or a loved one has been injured or killed in an 18 wheeler truck accident like this one, please contact my law office, Sam Levine, Attorney at Law, for a free consultation.
