Stardust Racers Injury Lawyer in Orlando

The Stardust Racers roller coaster at Epic Universe was the source of a tremendous amount of news stories soon after it opened because of the death of Kevin Rodriguez Zavala. However, we knew there were potential issues with the new park long before that incident. Our firm was receiving calls about Stardust Racers from people who were injured months before the media became interested in the roller coaster. If you were injured while riding the roller coaster, you need to get in touch with a Stardust Racers injury lawyer at our law firm right away.

Spetsas Buist Accident Injury Lawyers was the first law firm to file a lawsuit against Universal for injuries on Stardust Racers. We have since filed many personal injury lawsuits on behalf of Universal guests who were injured on the ride. Our Stardust Racers cases include life-altering injuries, like paralysis, stroke, TBI, and brain bleed.

If you or someone you loved was injured at Universal, you may be entitled to compensation under Florida law.

What Kind of Injuries Could Stardust Racers Cause?

Stardust Racers has caused people to suffer a variety of different injuries, most of which involve the upper back, neck, and head. However, the ride only just opened to the public in 2025, and thus we do not fully understand all the ways people could get injured while riding it.

We can, however, look at the cases we have handled against Universal Studios, both pre-suit and litigation, and talk about the injuries people have suffered so far. The most serious injuries we have seen from our Stardust Racers cases include:

• Paralysis
• Brain bleed
• Stroke
• Traumatic brain injury
• Concussion
• Whiplash
• Spinal injury

Although we can't list all the ways people could get injured on Stardust Racers, we can say for certain that many people have gotten injured as a result of riding the roller coaster. Some have suffered life-altering and life-ending injuries.

How Can a Stardust Racers Injury Lawyer Help Me?

A Stardust Racers injury lawyer at our law firm can help you by leveling the playing field against Universal's team of claims adjusters and defense attorneys. Universal is self-insured, which means they pay injury claims out of pocket. Accordingly, Universal Studios aggressively fights injury claims and typically will not pay fair value without a clear threat of litigation and trial by jury.

Investigation

The first step in any personal injury case against theme parks like Universal Studios is to perform a preliminary investigation. Here, we are interested in gathering all videos, photos, and surveillance footage that could be relevant to the case, whether that footage belongs to you, a friend, a family member, or Universal. We will also work with you to determine if there were any witnesses that could help with a statement about what happened.

Demand Letter

Once we've performed an investigation and gathered all the records of your medical treatment, we will send Universal a "demand" or "demand for payment." This package of documents typically includes a demand letter and all the other relevant documents, like medical records, medical bills, photos, videos, and witness statements.

The demand letter essentially explains our theory of liability and describes the injuries you suffered as a result of riding Stardust Racers at Epic Universe. It also includes a demand for payment, which tells Universal Studios that we are demanding they pay a certain amount of money, typically within 30 days, or we are going to file a lawsuit. Then, Universal has the choice to pay the demand amount, negotiate, or have a lawsuit filed against them.

Litigation and Trial

Our firm has proven it will file a lawsuit against Universal Studios. We've done it many times, and we have no problem trying a case against them in front of a jury.

When you have a lawyer that will file a lawsuit and try a case, and Universal knows it, it can give you leverage that can allow for a more proper settlement value. Without the threat of trial or litigation, there is no threat that Universal will have to turn over sensitive evidence in discovery, and the case documents won't be in the public eye. Accordingly, Universal is much more likely to pay proper value in litigation with the threat of trial.
