All Commercial Vehicle Types in Orlando
Orlando's roads carry an enormous variety of commercial vehicles — 18-wheelers on I-4, box trucks in neighborhoods, dump trucks at construction sites, tanker trucks on the Turnpike, tow trucks at crash scenes on SR 408, and company fleet vehicles throughout Orange County. HOV Law handles commercial vehicle crash claims for every vehicle type and every category of corporate defendant.
Construction Vehicle Expertise
Central Florida's construction boom — Lake Nona Medical City, Horizon West, Winter Garden, and ongoing I-4/SR 429 expansion — puts thousands of dump trucks, cement mixers, crane trucks, and flatbeds on local roads. When construction vehicles cause crashes near Orlando job sites, liability often extends from the driver to the general contractor and project owner.
Downtown Orlando, Corporate Defendant Experience
HOV Law is at 135 W Central Blvd in downtown Orlando, minutes from the Orange County Courthouse. Our attorneys have pursued commercial vehicle crash claims against large corporate defendants — fleet operators, national logistics companies, and construction contractors — and we prepare every case to go to trial in the Ninth Judicial Circuit if necessary.
Every Commercial Vehicle
on Orlando's Roads
Orlando is one of the most commercially active metro areas in the Southeast. Tourism, logistics, construction, and e-commerce create constant commercial vehicle traffic on every road in Orange, Seminole, and Osceola counties. When any commercial vehicle causes a crash — from an 80,000-pound 18-wheeler on I-4 to a company van on Colonial Drive — the injured victim faces a corporate defendant with professional legal representation. HOV Law levels that playing field.
Orlando Commercial Vehicle Accident Lawyer — All Fleet and Truck Types
A commercial vehicle accident in Orlando can involve almost any vehicle operated for business purposes. The legal framework differs significantly depending on the vehicle type, the employer-driver relationship, and whether the vehicle operates in interstate or intrastate commerce. HOV Law represents Orlando commercial vehicle accident victims across the full spectrum — from tractor-trailer crashes on I-4 to construction vehicle accidents in Lake Nona to fleet van crashes in the International Drive tourism corridor.
Our office is at 135 W Central Blvd in downtown Orlando. We represent clients throughout Orange, Seminole, and Osceola counties on a contingency fee basis — no fee unless we recover compensation for you.

Florida Laws That Affect Your Case
Statute of Limitations
In Florida, you have a limited time to file your claim: 2 years for negligence (FL Statute § 95.11). Missing this deadline typically means you lose your right to compensation permanently.
“Time is your most valuable asset after an injury. Contact a Orlando attorney immediately to ensure your claim is preserved.”
Modified Comparative Negligence
Florida follows a modified comparative negligence system. If you are found to be more than 50% at fault, you are barred from recovering any damages. Otherwise, your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault.
Florida Insurance System
Florida operates under a No-Fault (PIP required) system. $10,000 PIP coverage required.
