Florida is one of the most dangerous states for people on foot and on bikes. When a vehicle hits a person, there is nothing to absorb the impact, so injuries are often severe even at lower speeds. If that happened to you in or around Palm Bay, Brevard County, a free review can help you understand your options before you talk to an insurance company.
What Matters in a Palm Bay Pedestrian Accident Claim
Severe injury risk
Head injuries, fractures, and internal injuries are common because there is no protection from the impact.
Your own PIP may help
In Florida, your own auto insurance can sometimes apply even when you were walking or biking.
Right-of-way facts
Where the crash happened and who had the right of way are details insurers fight over.
Where Palm Bay Crashes Happen
Serious Palm Bay crashes tend to happen on I-95, US-1, Palm Bay Road, Malabar Road, and Babcock Street. Long, fast stretches and steady growth put more cars on the same roads every year.
After a Serious Palm Bay Crash
People seriously hurt in a Palm Bay crash are often taken to Holmes Regional Medical Center in nearby Melbourne, which operates the area's trauma center. The care and records from that stay become an important part of any later claim.
Handling a Palm Bay Injury Claim
A Palm Bay injury claim generally falls under Brevard County and Florida's Eighteenth Judicial Circuit. A free review is simply a look at your crash and your options, with no cost and no obligation.
Florida Deadlines Can Apply
Florida sets time limits on injury claims. Under Florida Statutes § 95.11, many negligence claims have a limitations period (commonly two years for negligence), but the exact deadline depends on your case. Evidence from a Palm Bay pedestrian accident can disappear quickly, so it is best not to wait to get a review.
