If you have been injured in an accident due to someone else’s negligence, an experienced personal injury lawyer can help you receive fair compensation for your injuries, lost wages, medical expenses, or pain and suffering. The legal process for filing personal injury claims tends to be complex, with strict filing deadlines and documentation requirements. To add insult to injury, insurance companies use tactics along the way aimed at minimizing your settlement payout. That’s why is essential to consult with an Orlando personal injury lawyer after an accident.
Steinger, Greene & Feiner understands these complexities and provides legal counsel to those who have been wrongfully injured in Orlando, advocating on their behalf to get them the maximum compensation deserve.
Without legal representation, you may struggle to gather the necessary evidence, accurately calculate damages, negotiate with insurers, and comply with court procedures – potentially leaving money on the table that you are owed by law. In addition to protecting your rights and interests, an injury attorney can handle all the tedious documentation and communication with insurance companies, allowing you to focus on recovery instead of legal matters during your difficult time.
At Steinger, Greene & Feiner, we have the resources needed to conduct thorough investigations and build the strongest case possible to maximize your compensation. These services come with no upfront costs or fees, which means dependable legal representation is accessible—regardless of your financial situation.

Understanding Personal Injury Law
The legal system is complex, but at Steinger, Greene & Feiner we pride ourselves on our ability to skillfully navigate personal injury claims.
Most personal injury lawsuits start with negligence—or, a failure to act with a reasonable duty of care resulting in harm. In order to prove negligence, lawyers must first prove that the defendant owed you a duty of care. In other words, is your doctor legally obligated to provide safe medical care? Are drivers on the road required by law to exercise caution and avoid careless behavior that could otherwise endanger others?
If personal injury lawyers can answer these types of questions and prove your duty of care was breached, they must next prove that the breach of duty was responsible for your injury. Once liability has been proven, they will quantify your injuries and the damages sustained. The compensation you receive will reflect the extent of those damages, which typically involves physical discomfort or pain, scarring or disfigurement, diminished enjoyment of life, humiliation, or mental anguish and emotional distress.
If you’ve been injured in an accident of any kind, contacting a personal injury attorney as soon as possible will maximize your chances of receiving fair compensation. After all, each state has its own statute of limitations restricting the amount of time you have to file a personal injury lawsuit. Florida’s statute of limitations for personal injury cases is two years, which means you have two years from the date of the accident (or the date you discovered your injuries) to file a lawsuit against the defendant.
If you file a lawsuit once the statute of limitations has expired, you forfeit any compensation you might have otherwise received. That said, act quickly to preserve your rights and maximize compensation. Contact the Orlando personal injury lawyers at Steinger, Greene & Feiner today.

- Bruises
- Whiplash and Other Neck Injuries

Steps to Take After an Injury
If you were in an accident of any sort that led to injury, chances are you experienced extreme emotional stress that made it difficult to think clearly in those critical moments following the injury. In fact, you might still feel lingering trauma whenever you think about the incident.
At Steinger, Greene & Feiner, we’ve counseled thousands of accident victims, so we know how difficult it is in these moments to react quickly and take the appropriate steps to recovery. Should you find yourself injured following an accident, here are a few measures you can take to ensure your safety and well-being:
- Immediate Actions: Report the accident. Call 911 to alert law enforcement and enlist the services of emergency responders for medical assistance.
- Seek Medical Attention: Your safety should be a top priority. Seek medical attention as soon as possible. Not only will medical care keep you healthy, but it will also document your injuries. Obtaining a medical report will later come in handy when you file a personal injury claim.
- Document the Incident: Just like police and medical reports build evidence to support your personal injury claim, so too will pictures or videos you take at the accident site. Using your cell phone, try to capture as many as you can pertaining to the injuries sustained. If possible, record eyewitness accounts, as these might also provide proof of damages or liability.
- Contact an Orlando Personal Injury Lawyer: Avoid discussing your injuries publicly or posting about them on social media. You should report the incident to your insurance company, but refrain from providing a recorded statement until you’ve consulted with a personal injury lawyer. Call Steinger, Greene & Feiner and we will guide you through the next steps to determine whether or not you have a case and are owed compensation.st first.
The Legal Process of a Personal Injury Claim
At Steinger, Greene & Feiner, we make sure our clients receive the highest level of counsel or representation in court. We deliver a professional approach when handling personal injury cases in Orlando. The process starts with a free consultation in which we learn about you and the circumstances of your accident.
Next, we conduct a thorough investigation, gathering key evidence like police and medical reports, photos/videos, eyewitness statements, expert testimony, and interviews with your family. This evidence builds a compelling case which will later be used as leverage during negotiations with your insurance company. After all, insurance companies often try to minimize payouts, putting their best interests (and bottom line) before yours. To protect your claim, file it promptly and avoid admitting fault. Do not provide any recorded statements or accept any settlement offers before consulting with an attorney, as insurers’ first offers are almost always low.
We will then advise you whether or not it’s time to negotiate further or file a lawsuit to prove the other party’s negligence in court. We have your back at every step, from trial preparation to litigation on your behalf in court.
Holding negligent parties accountable in court not only upholds justice but may also prevent similar accidents from occurring. It also compensates you for losses related to medical bills, damage, and pain/suffering. While claim values vary based on severity and circumstances, we fight to maximize your financial recovery. Contact the Orlando injury attorneys at Steinger, Greene & Feiner to get started.
Types of Compensation Available
The compensation you’re eligible to receive from your personal injury case will vary depending on the type of case. It will also depend on the nature and extent of your injuries. The personal injury attorneys at Steinger, Greene & Feiner will discuss the details of your case and give you a rough estimate based on similar cases that they’ve handled.
There are two types of compensation you can seek from a personal injury case:
- Economic: These are measurable losses with a monetary value. Common examples include medical expenses, rehabilitative care, property damage, lost wages, mental health treatment, and prescription medication.
- Non-Economic: These are intangible losses that affect a person’s well-being but have no direct monetary repercussions. Common examples include pain and suffering, mental anguish, emotional trauma, scarring and disfigurement, amputation, and loss of companionship or consortium.
