A Northern Virginia family's guide to wrongful death claims in Florida, with Miami as the focal jurisdiction. I walk readers through the Florida Wrongful Death Act at Fla. Stat. Section 768.16 et seq., the Section 46.021 survival statute and the "Wrongful Death Act subsumes survival" doctrine, the post-McCall and post-Kalitan medmal landscape where the Florida Supreme Court struck down the Section 766.118 noneconomic damages caps, the HB 837 (2023) conversion from pure to modified comparative fault with 50-percent bar, the Section 766.106 medmal pre-suit notice and Section 766.203 corroborating affidavit, the 2-year wrongful death SOL, and how NoVA-to-Florida travel ties produce cross-jurisdictional cases.

A Northern Virginia family's guide to wrongful death claims in Orlando and Central Florida, the theme park capital. I walk readers through the same Florida Wrongful Death Act framework that governs all Florida cases, but with the geographic and case-pattern focus that matters for NoVA families with cases at Walt Disney World, Universal Studios, SeaWorld, Orlando-area hotels and conventions, MCO airport, Patrick Space Force Base, Cape Canaveral, the I-4 corridor, and Central Florida hospitals like Orlando Regional Medical Center, AdventHealth, Nemours Children's Hospital, and Florida Hospital.
