Victor Sneed claims he was a pedestrian and suffered personal injury and property damage following the run-in which he claims happened back in January.
In his lawsuit filed at LA County Superior Court, Sneed claims the British comedian had been driving 'negligently' at the time.
The man also wants damages for loss of earnings, according to the papers obtained by TMZ.
The drama is the latest unwanted legal wrangle for the bad boy who landed community service and a fine last year after he tossed a paparazzi's iPhone through an office window.
The 37-year-old star was spared jail but had to cough up £322 and do 20 hours of community service after the row, sparked when a photographer tried to snap a shot of the star and a new lover, just months after his divorce from Katy Perry.
Brand did well to laugh off that drama when he joked on Twitter: 'Since Steve Jobs died I cannot bear to see anyone use an iPhone irreverently, what I did was a tribute to his memory.'

The former drug addict relished his punishment also.
'I don't know what their format of community service is, but community service, that doesn't seem like a punishment. That seems like a duty,' he said at the time. 'We are our community. Service is an honour. I'll be happy to do it.'
During his marriage to Katy Perry the hot head was arrested at LAX in 2010 for allegedly attacking a photographer who stood in his ex-wife's way.
He has not commented on the latest lawsuit.
