Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about car accident cases in Palm Bay
What should I do after a car accident in Palm Bay?
After ensuring everyone's immediate safety, there are several critical steps to take. First, call 911 to report the accident and get medical attention, even if you feel fine – some injuries aren't immediately apparent. Document the scene by taking photos of vehicle damage, road conditions, and any visible injuries. Collect contact information from witnesses and other drivers involved, but avoid discussing fault or making statements about the accident.
Be sure to obtain a copy of the police report and keep records of all medical treatment. Contact our office as soon as possible so we can help protect your rights and start building your case while evidence is still fresh.
What types of damages can I receive compensation for in a car accident case?
Car accident victims in Palm Bay may be eligible for various types of compensation, including:
- Medical expenses (current and future)
- Lost wages and reduced earning capacity
- Property damage
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
- Loss of enjoyment of life
Every case is unique, and our team will work to identify all possible sources of compensation to ensure you receive the maximum recovery possible.
What types of injuries are commonly caused by car accidents?

- Whiplash and neck injuries
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Spinal cord injuries
- Broken bones
- Internal organ damage
- Soft tissue injuries
Our experience handling serious injury cases in Palm Bay helps us understand the full impact of these injuries on your life and ensure your compensation reflects both immediate and long-term needs.
How is liability determined in a car accident?
Determining liability in a car accident involves investigating multiple factors, including police reports, witness statements, physical evidence, and traffic camera footage. Our team examines details like traffic laws that were violated, road conditions, vehicle maintenance records, and driver behavior. We often work with accident reconstruction experts to build a clear picture of what happened.
Florida follows a comparative negligence system, meaning multiple parties can share fault for an accident. Our job is to prove the other driver's responsibility while protecting you from unfair blame that could reduce your compensation.
How does no cost representation for car accident cases work?
Our firm handles car accident cases on a contingency fee basis, which means we only collect a fee if we win your case. This arrangement allows you to get high-quality legal representation without worrying about upfront costs or hourly fees. We advance all case-related expenses, from investigation costs to expert witness fees.
If we successfully recover compensation for you, our fee comes as a percentage of the settlement or verdict. This approach aligns our interests with yours – we're motivated to get you the maximum possible recovery because our success is tied directly to yours.
