About

HOV Law is an Orlando-based personal injury and criminal defense firm recognized nationally for achieving high-value case results and trial excellence. The firm's attorneys hold membership in the Million Dollar and Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forums® for securing settlements exceeding $1 million and $2 million respectively, and were honored as Top 40 Under 40 by The National Trial Lawyers—a distinction awarded to fewer than one percent of attorneys nationwide.

The firm is led by Serge Hovhanessian, a dedicated personal injury and criminal defense attorney who is fluent in Arabic and conversational in Armenian. Richard Arena, a former prosecutor with the Ninth Judicial Circuit, brings extensive trial experience to the firm's personal injury and criminal defense practice. Together, they handle complex cases across Orlando and throughout Florida, focusing on crash victims and criminal defense representation.

HOV Law's personal injury practice spans motor vehicle accidents including car, truck, motorcycle, and rideshare collisions. The firm represents Uber and Lyft passengers and drivers navigating the complexities of rideshare insurance policies, as well as clients in slip and fall cases involving property owner negligence. The firm also handles wrongful death claims when negligence results in fatal injuries. In criminal defense, the firm defends clients charged with DUI, drug possession, assault and battery, gun charges, felony charges, and misdemeanor offenses.

A key aspect of the firm's approach is its commitment to educating clients through attorney-authored legal guides covering truck accident liability, rideshare crash procedures, FMCSA regulations, Florida statutes, and practical case-protection strategies. These resources address topics such as electronic data recorder evidence, event data logging systems, and fault apportionment under Florida law.

The firm operates on a contingency basis for personal injury cases, meaning there is no fee unless the client recovers compensation. HOV Law serves all of Florida and selected additional states, with nationwide capability to represent clients across multiple jurisdictions. The firm emphasizes core values of teamwork, respect, accountability, truthfulness, and integrity in its client relationships. According to its track record, the firm reports zero client complaints and focuses on building lasting relationships through dedicated representation and tangible results.
