At Adams & Luka, we know that the majority of motorists have had to drive in less than safe conditions, areas where construction crews are working on roads and interstates in order to improve their conditions. However, these areas are extremely hazardous, particularly when contractors fail to employ traffic controls such as flags, warning signs, cones, or other measures to ensure the safety of motorists. Not only that, some motorists ignore slowed speed limits in road construction zones, causing accidents themselves.
You may be a motorist who has been injured, or a worker in a construction zone. Regardless, you may be entitled to compensation for costs associated with your injuries. Our Orlando road construction accidents attorneys are dedicated to recovering the damages you deserve, and helping put your life back on track.
Construction Zones in Orlando and Throughout Florida are Frequently HazardousAnyone can be injured or even killed in road construction zones, which are often extremely hazardous not only for motorists and construction workers, but pedestrians or bystanders as well. A lack of barricades, caution signs, or even debris from the construction in the roadway can result in catastrophe. There are laws that are in place both at the state and federal level designed to promote safety in these work zones, however construction companies and road workers often violate these regulations. It is often difficult to determine which party or parties are at fault. Those who may be held liable depending on the facts of your case include impatient or distracted motorists, municipal or government entities, or even private corporations involved in the project. Our Orlando personal injury lawyers will thoroughly review your case to determine all parties who may be held partially or totally responsible for the damages you have incurred.
In addition to lack of traffic controls, other potential dangers that may contribute to a road construction accident include:
When you or a family member have been seriously injured or even died in an accident within a construction zone on Florida's roadways and interstates, it is vital to consult with an experienced injury attorney right away to obtain the justice you deserve. Many people are not aware until they are involved in such an accident of the true costs. Not only will you face costs for medical treatment of your injury, you may have property damage if your vehicle was damaged in the accident. Lost wages, pain and suffering, and emotional distress are other damages we may be able to recover, depending on your unique case.

Personal Injury Lawyers Advocating on Behalf of Victims of Road Construction Accidents in Orange, Lake, Seminole, Osceola, Sumter, Marion, Volusia, Polk, & Brevard Counties.
I would like thank my attorney Thomas Luka. I knew from the beginning I had the right guy in my corner. While celebrating with family and friends at a Public Park in Seminole County, a fight broke out among various people. Myself, and a good friend, broke up the fight and the instigators left. Six months later, I was wrongly accused as the person who started the fight. The first attorney I hired could not even get a response from the State Attorney handling the case. Someone referred me to Tom and I felt comfortable at his demeanor and reactions.
After conversations with Tom, who knew I would settle for nothing less than a FULL DISMISSAL due to my innocence, I hired him. His firm of Adams and Luka did the due diligence by interviewing witnesses and the police who were on the scene, as well as starting a dialogue with the State Attorney. After gathering statements from witnesses, Tom was able to present a strong argument on my behalf to the State Attorney on why the case should be dismissed. If the State Attorney was not willing to dismiss the case, Tom was ready to take the case to trial.
The result by Thomas Luka: Case Dismissed.
I am 53 years old with a spotless record and glad to keep it that way thanks to the time, effort, hard work, and professionalism of the Adams and Luka and Tom Luka.
