When people visit Wekiwa Springs, motor vehicle accidents are the last things they think about. However, just like everywhere else, accidents can and do happen––including those involving motorcycles. In these situations, you have options for seeking restitution for your losses.
Compensation can account for your medical bills, lost income, and other injury-related expenses. When you partner with a Wekiwa Springs motorcycle accident lawyer, you can rest assured your case is getting the attention it needs. The Law Offices of Anidjar & Levine is ready to manage your claim or lawsuit today.
You Generally Have Four Years to Seek Compensation
Florida Statutes § 95.11(3)(a) notes that you generally have four years to file your motorcycle accident lawsuit. Your filing deadline depends on multiple factors, namely, the date the accident happened.
You have even less time to file your case if you lost a loved one or a government agency was involved. If you don’t file your case within the applicable deadline, the courts will refuse to hear your lawsuit.
Not knowing the statute of limitations does not give you more time to act. When you connect with our team, we can explain how long you have to file and take action accordingly.

Commonly-Asked Questions About Motorcycle Accident Cases
Some of our previous clients have asked us:
Do My Injuries Warrant Compensation?
If you suffered harm and incurred financial losses, you can generally seek damages. In the past, we’ve helped injured claimants recover damages for:
- Road rash
- Head and neck injuries, such as a concussion or whiplash
- Burns
- Bruises and broken bones
- Chest and abdominal injuries
- Spinal cord trauma
- Traumatic brain injuries
Financial recovery could account for each of your injury-related losses, including the cost of hospitalization, ambulance transportation, medications, and treatment.
Does the Cause of My Collision Matter?
Because Florida operates on a no-fault insurance system, you can recover damages even if you contributed to the incident. However, determining the cause of your accident is crucial to getting what you deserve.
That’s because your portion of fault could reduce how much you’re entitled to receive. So, if you caused 20 percent of the collision, your damages’ value would be reduced by that percentage.
Causes of motorcycle accidents include:
- Speeding
- Intoxication
- Distracted driving
- Weaving in and out of lanes
- Failing to yield
- Reckless driving
- Drag racing
- Failing to obey traffic signals

What Should I Do After My Motorcycle Accident in Wekiwa Springs?
In addition to seeking medical attention, we recommend that you:
- Keep all information related to your case. A copy of the police report, information from your doctor, and receipts can support your right to compensation. We also recommend keeping all emails and text messages from the involved parties, including your insurance provider.
- Refrain from sharing information about your case on social media. Only you and your lawyer need to know about your case. Your friends on the internet do not. The claims adjuster could access anything you post online and use it to contest your case.
- Leave all communications to your lawyer. Even if you have an attorney, this may not stop the insurance company from contacting you. It may ask for a recorded statement or keep asking you for irrelevant information. Your lawyer can manage all communications with the other parties in your case. If the insurance company calls you, let it go to voicemail, and tell your lawyer.
During your free, no-obligation case review, we can explain what other measures could protect your right to compensation.
