Below are the areas of personal law in which Fenderson Law Firm concentrates:
Motor Vehicle Accidents
Motor vehicle accidents are a daily occurrence and Florida’s average is higher than the national average. Accidents may cause major injuries to people and property—and they may even result in death. Despite Florida’s no-fault coverage, you may have a claim. You will need legal representation to make that determination and resolve all the legal issues involved.

Trucking Accidents
The complexity of trucking accidents and the often catastrophic resulting injuries present special legal challenges. Did you know that a truck or tractor-trailer wreck that involves a motor carrier regulated by the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) has built-in protection for an injured party? You cannot discover this without filing a suit with the help of an experienced attorney.

Dog Bites
Dog bites can result in serious injury. Dog bite laws are a combination of city, county, and state laws or ordinances. Because these laws vary, the location of where the incident took place is critical to your ability to recover damages. The owner of the animal is usually liable for damages, but any negligence on the part of the injured person is taken into account. An experienced attorney is required to make the system work for the injured party.
