With nearly 25 years of experience, our Orlando bicycle accident attorneys fight to secure maximum compensation for medical care, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

The True Cost of Bicycle Crashes in Orlando
Bike crashes often result in severe injuries, derailing your life and forcing you to miss work or face long-term recovery. The emotional toll of losing mobility hurts just as much as the physical pain. Kaiser Romanello’s Orlando bicycle accident lawyers build robust claims to cover every loss, from medical treatment to emotional distress.
- Common Injuries: Broken bones, traumatic brain injuries (TBI), spinal cord injuries, or disfigurement.
- Local Statistics: In 2022, Orange County reported 456 bicycle accidents, with 5 fatalities (Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles).
- High-Risk Areas: Busy roadways like International Drive or Semoran Boulevard pose unique risks.
- Statewide Context: Florida saw 7,158 bike crashes and 190 fatalities in 2023.
Our law firm investigates every detail, from police reports to witness statements, to hold negligent drivers accountable under Florida law. We serve bicycle accident victims in Central Florida, ensuring your claim reflects the full scope of your bicycle accident injuries, including future medical care.
Why Insurance Companies Deny Bicycle Accident Claims
Insurance companies often blame bicycle riders, claiming they violated traffic laws or weren’t visible on roads like Colonial Drive. Without skilled legal representation, you risk settling for far less than your bicycle accident case is worth. Kaiser Romanello’s personal injury attorneys counter these tactics with hard evidence, like traffic cam footage or accident scene photos, to protect your rights.
Common Insurer Tactics:
- Alleging cyclists ignored right-of-way rules near theme parks.
- Downplaying injuries to minimize medical expenses.
- Blaming heavy tourist traffic as unavoidable.
Florida’s Modified Comparative Fault Rule:
- Allows recovery if you’re less than 50% at fault (e.g., 20% fault reduces compensation by 20%).
- Our legal team works to minimize your fault and maximize your payout.
We ensure your claim accounts for lost wages and future medical expenses, shielding you from insurance company tricks in Orange County and Central Florida.
