When an accident turns your life upside down, the last thing you should be doing is battling an insurance company alone. At Ville Law, our Melbourne, FL personal injury attorney Jeffrey Ville has spent over 35 years helping injured residents across Melbourne, Brevard County, and the Space Coast recover the compensation they deserve for medical bills, lost income, pain, and everything in between.
Whether you were hurt in a car accident, a slip and fall, or an incident caused by someone else's negligence, our firm provides the personalized, one-on-one legal representation that big firms simply can't match. When you hire Jeffrey Ville, you work directly with him, not a paralegal, not a case manager.
Our Melbourne personal injury practice covers a broad range of accident and negligence cases, including:
Injuries After a Car Accident Where Insurance Won't Pay Fairly: This is the most common personal injury scenario in Melbourne. A client is rear-ended on US-1, goes to the ER, and then receives a lowball settlement offer that doesn't cover their ongoing treatment. Jeffrey Ville steps in to document the full scope of injuries, demand proper compensation, and, if necessary, take the case to trial.
Slip and Fall at a Melbourne Business or Retail Store: Property owners have a legal duty to warn you of hazards. When a grocery store, shopping center, or restaurant fails to address a wet floor or broken walkway and someone is hurt, Jeffrey Ville builds the premises liability case from incident report to settlement.
Dog Bite Injuries on the Space Coast: Florida has strict liability for dog bites, the owner is responsible regardless of whether the dog has bitten before. Jeffrey Ville helps victims recover medical costs, scarring damages, and emotional distress compensation.
Pedestrian or Bicycle Accidents in Brevard County: Cyclists and pedestrians hit by negligent drivers often face the most serious injuries and the most aggressive insurance pushback. Jeffrey Ville has decades of experience navigating these claims to get victims what they deserve.
Every case is different, but compensation in Florida personal injury claims can include:
The sooner you contact an attorney, the better protected your claim will be. Evidence fades, witnesses become harder to locate, and Florida's statute of limitations gives you a limited window to file.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Florida?
Florida law gives most personal injury victims two years from the date of injury to file a lawsuit. Acting quickly is important, the sooner you get legal help, the better we can preserve evidence and build your case.
What if I was partially at fault for the accident?
Florida follows a modified comparative negligence rule. You may still be able to recover compensation even if you were partially at fault, though your damages may be reduced by your percentage of fault. An attorney can help you understand how this applies to your situation.
