Mount Dora, FL Personal Injury Law Firms & Lawyers

You most likely have a case. The hospital usually notifies the health department in cases like this, so if other people also had a similar reaction and went to the hospital, there should be a record of those visits as well

Circumstances have little to do with your liability, but rather your collectibility. In automobile cases normally the owners of the vehicles as well as the drivers are sued. Anyone can bring a suit, the question is if they can win it. I would suspect that the insurance company for the ambulance company or your own personal insurance company will be providing you with an attorney. Until that occurs, do not speak with the opposition.

While there might be legal fault by U.S. standards, your injuries likely insufficient for a personal injury lawyer (in the U.S.) to take on the case.  It is very difficult to establish jurisdiction of the U.S. courts over a foreign resort.  I have litigated several of these and can tell you that even U.S. named resorts structure their ownership to shield their  foreign properties from our jurisdiction. Even when we can establish a connection, there are other issues, such as choice of law (which nations negligence standards apply) which make these cases exceedingly difficult.  Depending on how your trip was booked, or marketed to you, it is possible that a U.S. entity could be held accountable, but even that is very very difficult (for reasons which are beyond the scope of this brief reply). I am not telling you there is not case to be made, but without significant injuries it will be hard to find a lawyer to take on the case.  That being said, a lawyer may be able to get the resort to pay some nominal damages in order to make a customer happy and avoid the hassle of opening a claim. Good luck. Since there may be time limits of the foreign jurisdiction that could limit your claim, even in the U.S., I strongly suggest you immediately consult with a qualified personal injury lawyer in your area.
