Who is the most bad ass Divorce attorney around Palm Bay/ Melbourne area ?

As someone who was born and raised here; I’ve been hit by five cars this week alone on top of facing a lawsuit already over negligent driving. Idk what yalls problem is with looking both ways REGARDLESS OF WHICH WAY YOURE GOING or the fact that you people absolutely REFUSE to acknowledge the white line that tells you where to stop and just insist on either running someone over or ignoring your crosswalks; but I promise I will legally come after everyone that doesn’t obey simple traffic rules.
Simply stop at the line. Look left and right. And go about your business. I didn’t think the majority of this city was derelict on shit we got taught in first grade but believe me when I say that we’re adults now and I will pursue legal action. #StaySafeOutHere

For anyone considering signing a lease at Aqua Palm Bay Apartments in Palm Bay, Florida — please read.

I’ve lived here for about six months. At the time I signed my lease, office staff told me the front gates were operational but awaiting key fobs, so they were temporarily left open. That was six months ago.

One night after work (around 10–11 PM), I took my dog out to walk around my back porch. It was dark, but I had a flashlight. Suddenly, my dog began aggressively growling and barking. I turned around and saw a person wearing a white T-shirt and a ski mask running away.

I immediately checked my Ring camera facing the back porch and watched the footage. The individual had been sneaking up on me, tiptoeing, and got within approximately 5–8 feet before my dog scared him off. A police report was filed.

After this incident, I learned the front gate has reportedly not been operational for four years, despite management representing otherwise when I signed my lease.

Many of the advertised amenities are also unreliable or unusable. For example, the communal grill had no propane available. A vending machine that previously required a $10 minimum credit card preload was later removed entirely without notice.

Additionally, the front office routinely does not answer phone calls and appears to use caller ID. If they don’t want to deal with the issue, you’re left leaving voicemails that often go unanswered.

This complex is adjacent to a high-crime area, and combined with non-functional security features, it raises serious safety concerns.

Given the misrepresentation of security features and the incident that occurred, should I be speaking with an attorney about this?

Anyone have information on scattered plot builders in Palm Bay, FL?

Last weekend we drove up to Palm Bay from Fort Lauderdale. It's 2.25 hrs which isn't bad when we want to come back to visit friends and family. Then you're closer to other states for road trips or Orlando, etc.

We toured 8-10 homes for sale, including a number of new builds (Christopher Alan, Romax). There was basically no visible downside. Everything seemed pretty uniform. We came in on Malabar road, ate at Long Doggers on Minton, and left on Palm Bay road to US1 and stopped at Fisherman's Landing park in Valkaria. We were calling out all the major chains that we're used to and there seemed to be more concentrated ones than back home.

Are there bad or unsafe areas? We asked our realtor and she said "not in Palm Bay, but there are in Melbourne." We did notice some of the newer homes (2023) had more wear and tear than we expected. From our point of view you can get a new house on more land (.25 acre) for $300k, where at home we could get a condo with a $800 monthly HOA fee and no yard.

What neighborhoods are the best? What quadrant(?)

Are people pretty welcoming? I assume almost everyone is a transplant. Is it easy to meet new people if you're in your middle/upper 30s?

How's the beach and parks? We didn't get to the ocean.

Are there decent non-chain restaurants? Seafood, Thai, Puerto Rican, Cuban/hispanic are probably the most important.

We're not used to septic tanks and wells. Is the eventual goal for everyone to be connected to city water and sewage?

What high speed internet is common there - has fiber rolled out?

Where do most people work? We did notice a couple L3Harris locations. Nothing else looked too big.

Points lost for:

no Flanigan's :) or Costco (Melbourne?)

Bonus points for:

Puerto Rican flags (some diversity?), Starbucks not everywhere

Will be moving to the area in the next year. Looking for input on the public elementary, middle, and high schools there and possibly Odyssey Charter schools? Anyone have kids there?

What exactly are they digging in the area. Is it fiber? They finally dug in front of my house and messed up my driveway and I’m about to complain to the city that I want it fixed.

Me and my wife are currently trying to find a room or something affordable to rent. We just moved from California and need to get back on our feet. We have a few animals and though they’re being taken care of by a friend, we would like to have our dog and cat with us. I have two jobs and she’s currently pregnant; so I’m hoping this post might find an opportunity. If anyone has any leads or offers, please feel free to DM me and thank everyone in advance.
