What Compensation Can I Get for Injuries Sustained at an Orlando Theme Park?
When you suffer injuries at Disney World or another resort in Orlando, you’ll have the opportunity to file a civil personal injury lawsuit for damages.
Through your personal injury lawsuit, which might be filed against the theme park or another liable party, you can seek economic damages and non-economic damages for:
- Current and future medical bills
- Lost wages and disability
- Diminished earning capacity
- Rehabilitation
- Nursing assistance
- Out-of-pocket costs
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Pain and suffering
- Disfigurement
- Embarrassment
- Chronic physical pain
- Emotional distress
- Funeral expenses if an accident at Disney World is fatal
Punitive damages can also be sought if your Disney World injury lawsuit goes to trial. In these situations, an Orlando jury can award additional compensation if there’s compelling evidence that you got hurt because of the defendant’s intentionally harmful or grossly negligent behavior.
How Long Will I Have to File a Personal Injury Lawsuit After an Accident at Disney World?
Florida imposes a two-year statute of limitations on most personal injury claims. As a result, you’ll have until the second anniversary of your accident at Disney World to formally seek damages for your losses.
There are some exceptions. For instance, if your child was injured at an attraction in Disney World or Lake Buena Vista, they can have until their 20th birthday to initiate a legal claim on their own. However, you may also have the right to file a claim on your child’s behalf.
Don’t let the filing deadline come and go without taking action. Once the statute of limitations runs out, you lose the ability to sue Disney or another theme park for your injuries.
