Pedestrian Accident Lawyer in Melbourne, FL
Fighting for the Injured in Brevard County & Central Florida
If you or a loved one has been hit by a vehicle as a pedestrian, we understand how overwhelming the aftermath can be. Your life may have been physically, emotionally, and financially affected.
At Mann Law, we can help you file a personal injury claim against the negligent or reckless party that caused your injuries. When you call us, we begin working to protect your rights, preserve key evidence, and hold the responsible party accountable. Pedestrian accident claims can be complex, and early legal guidance often significantly affects the case outcome.
You’ll work directly with Attorney David Mann, a former insurance defense lawyer who knows how insurers think and how to push back when they try to minimize the value of your claim. We work on a contingency fee basis, so you owe us no upfront attorney fees unless we recover compensation on your behalf.

The Devastation of Pedestrian Accidents
Unlike drivers or their passengers, pedestrians are completely exposed. On foot, you have no seatbelts, airbags, or barriers to protect you in a collision. Even at low speeds, a pedestrian can suffer serious, life-altering injuries such as broken bones, head trauma, spinal cord damage, internal injuries, or worse. Tragically, many of these accidents result in fatalities or long-term disabilities that affect every part of a victim’s life.
For families, the emotional toll of a loved one’s injury or loss can be overwhelming. Recovery may involve surgeries, hospital stays, physical therapy, and ongoing care. At Mann Law, we aggressively fight for the compensation needed to cover those expenses, along with lost income, pain and suffering, and more.

After the Accident: What You Need to Know
If you’ve already been involved in a pedestrian accident, you may be dealing with pain, confusion, or pressure from insurance companies to settle quickly. You may not have had the chance to gather evidence at the scene, such as photos, and more.
It’s our job to step in, investigate the details, and protect your rights moving forward. We can work to obtain surveillance footage, witness statements, police reports, and medical records to support your case.
The most important thing you can do is focus on your recovery and work with a law firm that handles these complex claims, such as Mann Law. We’re here to guide you through every step—from your first call to the final resolution.
Common Causes & Locations of Pedestrian Accidents
As a state with mild weather, pedestrian traffic is common in Florida and ongoing year-round. These accidents can happen almost anywhere, on sidewalks, in parking lots, or at intersections.
We often handle claims caused by:
- Distracted driving – Texting or using a phone while driving is one of the leading causes of pedestrian crashes. Distracted drivers are less likely to notice someone crossing the road.
- Left-hand turns – Drivers making left turns often focus on oncoming traffic, not pedestrians in the crosswalk.
- Drunk driving – Impaired drivers are slower to react and more likely to miss someone walking, especially at night.
- Failure to yield – Drivers may ignore stop signs, red lights, or pedestrian rights-of-way at crosswalks.
- Improper crossing – Pedestrians may cross outside designated areas or disobey traffic signals, but that does not automatically prevent them from recovering compensation.
Regardless of the cause, the sooner you begin working on your case, the better positioned we can be to preserve evidence, build your claim, and push back against insurers that may try to shift the blame or undervalue your claim.
We treat your case with urgency, compassion, and strategic focus. Contact us today at (321) 461-5482 for a free consultation with our Melbourne pedestrian accident attorney.
