Attorney oversight by Chris Schroeder, Esq. Florida Bar No. 520381 Brevard County

Injury claims in Melbourne

Brevard County civil suits are filed at the Moore Justice Center in Viera rather than in Melbourne itself. The county’s crash pattern is shaped by the I-95 corridor, the US-1 spine running the length of the barrier-island communities, and heavy commuter volume around the Melbourne and Palm Bay employment centres. Seasonal traffic and launch-day congestion on the causeways add to it.

Where a Melbourne claim is filed

Civil suits arising here go to Brevard County, at the Brevard County Courthouse (Moore Justice Center), 2825 Judge Fran Jamieson Way, Viera. The division that hears the case depends on the amount in controversy, and local filing practice differs between Florida circuits.

Local corridors

The routes around Melbourne that generate the most serious injury claims include I-95, US-1, Wickham Road, Babcock Street, and Eau Gallie Boulevard. Crash reports and roadway records for these are obtainable from local and state agencies, though some are retained only for a limited period after the collision.
