Frequently Asked Questions About Atlanta Workers’ Comp and Personal Injury Claims

WHAT SHOULD I DO IMMEDIATELY AFTER A PERSONAL INJURY ACCIDENT IN ATLANTA?

What you do immediately following an accident is crucial to everyone’s safety and any future insurance and legal claims. Here are the steps you should follow:

  1. Ensure Safety and Call 911: If anyone is seriously injured, call 911 immediately to get emergency medical assistance. Prioritize safety by moving to a safe location if possible.
    Even if there are no serious injuries, contacting the police is a critical step. A police report serves as an impartial record that can be significant when filing insurance claims or if legal action becomes necessary.
  2. Exchange Information: Exchange contact and insurance information with all parties involved in the accident. This should include names, phone numbers, addresses, driver’s license numbers, license plate numbers, and insurance details.
  3. Document the Scene: Take photos of the vehicles involved, any property damage, and the area surrounding the accident. This visual evidence can be crucial for insurance and legal purposes.
  4. See a Doctor: Whether or not you feel injured, it is important to be checked out by a doctor. Some injuries may not be immediately apparent.
  5. Inform Your Insurance Company: Notify your insurance company about the accident as soon as possible. Provide them with all the necessary details and cooperate with their investigation.
  6. Consult an Attorney: Seek the services of an experienced attorney who can look out for your best interests. An attorney can help you navigate the insurance claim process and any potential legal issues.

By following these steps, you can help ensure the safety of everyone involved and protect your rights in any future insurance or legal matters.

WHAT TYPES OF COMPENSATION CAN I RECOVER IN A PERSONAL INJURY LAWSUIT IN ATLANTA?

The types of damages available in personal injury cases generally fall into one of three categories. The amount of compensation you receive for each of the damages depends on the facts and circumstances of your case. 

 

  1.  Economic Damages – These might include medical expenses, compensation for lost income, property damage or other related out of pocket expenses.
  2. Non-Economic Damages – This might include pain and suffering, permanent impairments and disabilities, or loss of quality of life. 
  3. Punitive Damages – Punitive damages are only available in a few types of personal injury cases. This type of damage is awarded to “punish” the responsible party and deter the party from engaging in similar conduct in the future. 
HOW LONG DO I HAVE TO FILE A PERSONAL INJURY OR WORKERS' COMP LAWSUIT IN GEORGIA?

In Georgia, the timelines for filing a personal injury or workers’ compensation lawsuit are as follows:

Personal Injury Lawsuit: You have two years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit.

Government Claim: If a government entity is involved, you must notify the relevant agency within six months of the accident.

Workers’ Compensation Claim: You need to inform your employer within 30 days of the injury and file a formal claim within one year of the incident.

Extensions may be possible, but it is crucial to act promptly and contact an attorney immediately to ensure your case is handled properly.

WILL MY PERSONAL INJURY CASE GO TO TRIAL, OR CAN IT BE SETTLED OUT OF COURT?

Most personal injury cases can be settled out of court through a pre-litigation claim, which involves negotiating with the at-fault party or their insurance company for compensation. 

However, if a fair settlement cannot be reached, you may need to file a lawsuit. This process includes filing a complaint, serving discovery, and possibly mediating. If mediation fails, the case goes to trial, where a jury will determine the outcome. Settling out of court is often quicker and less costly, but going to trial can potentially yield higher compensation, especially in cases involving egregious conduct by the defendant.

HOW DOES THE CONTINGENCY FEE STRUCTURE WORK WITH YOUR ATLANTA PERSONAL INJURY LAW FIRM?

At our Atlanta personal injury law firm, we work on a contingency fee basis. This means you pay no upfront fees. Instead, our fee is a percentage of the compensation we win for you. If we don’t win your case, you owe us nothing for our legal services. 

However, you may still be responsible for court costs and other related expenses, which we often advance and then deduct from your settlement or award. This structure allows you to hire experienced legal representation without worrying about immediate out-of-pocket expenses.
