Car Accident Lawyer Serving Melbourne & Brevard County
Fighting for Compensation After a Negligence-Based Crash
At Mann Law, we understand that a car accident can instantly turn your life upside down. The aftermath can feel overwhelming, from the chaos of the collision to the pain of recovery and the stress of dealing with insurance companies. We are here to relieve the pressure and help you progress with a well-founded personal injury claim, diligently pursuing the compensation you need and deserve.
Don’t Navigate the Aftermath of an Auto Accident Alone
Unfortunately, auto accidents in our area are common, especially on busy roads like U.S. 1, I-95, and Wickham Road. Whether you were injured in a high-speed highway collision, a distracted driving crash near the beach, or a rear-end accident on your way to work, we can help you understand your rights and pursue the compensation you deserve.
How We Build a Strong Case for You
When you choose Mann Law, you partner with a legal team that leaves no stone unturned. We begin by collecting essential documentation, such as medical records, police reports, insurance policy details, and other evidence supporting your claim.
We also thoroughly investigate your accident, reviewing available video footage, speaking with witnesses, and examining every detail to determine how the crash occurred and who was at fault.
Negotiating with Insurers & Taking Your Case to Trial if Needed
From there, we handle all communication and negotiations with the insurance company. Our goal is always to resolve your case efficiently and favorably through a fair settlement, but we are fully prepared to take your case to trial if necessary to get a fair result.
Potential Compensation in Car Accident Claims
In a Florida auto accident claim, you may be entitled to recover damages for:
- Past and future medical expenses
- Lost wages
- Lost earning capacity
- Future care needs
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
- Property damage to your vehicle
Because Florida is a no-fault insurance state, your personal injury protection (PIP) coverage generally pays for initial medical costs regardless of who was at fault. PIP typically covers 80% of all reasonable and necessary medical expenses up to your policy limit, typically $10,000. It also covers 60% of lost wages due to the accident, up to the same overall $10,000 limit.
You must seek medical treatment within 14 days of the accident to be eligible for PIP benefits. Failing to do so can result in your claim being denied. In cases where your injuries are severe or permanent, you may step outside the no-fault system and pursue a claim directly against the at-fault driver.
Why You Must Act Quickly
One of the most important things you can do after an accident is act quickly. Florida’s statute of limitations for most personal injury cases is two years from the crash date. Waiting too long can result in losing your right to recover damages. Early legal action helps preserve vital evidence and strengthens your case.
We treat every case with care and determination. We know how devastating a car crash can be. Our firm is committed to helping you find justice, closure, and the resources you need to heal.
