The Ormond Beach Community Endures Many Motor Vehicle Accidents
Ormond Beach, FL, and Volusia County as a whole suffer from many damaging auto wrecks.
In 2023, Volusia County suffered 9,212 total crashes. These resulted in 4,126 injuries and 110 fatalities.
Ormond Beach Is Especially Dangerous
The Ormond Beach and Daytona Beach areas are booming. While this is great news for business, it can mean terrible things for our roads. The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) projects that traffic on US-1 will more than double by 2050 and will increase by over 40% on I-95. This means more commercial trucks will pass through our community, increasing the potential for truck accidents and endangering passenger vehicles.
The Destination Daytona area is already infamous for major car accidents on US-1 at I-95. Additionally, tight loop ramps and bridges on these highways fail to meet FDOT standards. On top of our highway issues, a study published in 2022 found the Deltona-Daytona Beach-Ormond Beach metro area to be the deadliest in the nation for pedestrians. Experts believe that improved road designs could prevent many of these deaths.
We Can Hold the Government Accountable
/
The Ormond Beach City Commission is actively involved in projects designed to improve road safety. It is the government's responsibility to maintain safe roadways. If your truck accident was fully or partially caused by governmental failure, we can hold the municipality accountable.

I have never had to use a lawyer before in my life, so I was skeptical to step into this arena. But Chanfrau & Chanfrau were incredibly kind and pleasant to work with. They were helpful, supportive, and made next steps easy to navigate. I was fearful of self-serving processes and money-hungry lawyers and paralegals, but I did not find this at all. You are in good hands with Chanfrau & Chanfrau.

Statute of limitations laws create hard deadlines for when certain types of lawsuits must be filed by. These deadlines vary state-to-state. Failing to file your personal injury lawsuit within the time limit likely bars you from ever collecting the compensation you deserve.
For personal injury lawsuits, Florida allows victims a full four years from the date of their harm to file a claim if the injury happened before March 24th, 2023.
This is significantly longer than what most states provide. If a truck accident tragically claimed the life of a loved one, you have just two years from the date of their death to file a wrongful death claim. Any injury that occurred after March 24th, 2023, also has two years to file.
Our Team Obtains Major Compensation In Truck Accident Cases
The Chanfrau & Chanfrau law firm has collected over a billion in compensation for our clients. Many of our major victories have been achieved in truck accident cases. We won:
$1.5 million for a fatal under-ride truck accident
$1.5 million for an under-ride truck accident that caused bodily injuries
$1.2 million for a client who suffered injuries after a large truck illegally backed onto an unlit highway
Florida Does Not Limit Your Compensation
Unlike some states, Florida has no limit on economic or non-economic damages in a personal injury case or wrongful death case. While rare, punitive damages may also be awarded if your truck accident was caused by egregiously reckless behavior.
It can be tempting to accept a quick settlement from the responsible truck driver's insurance company. This type of offer is typically a lowball settlement that does not fully cover your harm. It is highly recommended that you speak to our attorneys so we can seek the most compensation possible on your behalf.

Facing a confusing legal issue, I contacted Kelly Chanfrau. Not only did she patiently explain my options with crystal-clear language, but she also offered an honest assessment of my best path forward (even if that meant I did not have a case). She ultimately saved me from making a costly mistake. Kelly's expertise and genuine concern for my well-being were evident throughout our consultation. Without a doubt, I would recommend her to anyone in need of a trustworthy and insightful lawyer.
