Georgia & South Carolina Injury Lawyers

What Does a Personal Injury Law Firm Do?

An experienced personal injury law firm gets results for its clients in court, out of court, and in negotiations. A prospective client can contact a personal injury law firm with just an idea about what happened or with evidence and police reports that state what happened. Our dedicated personal injury law firm will help you apply for necessary benefits, file lawsuits, negotiate settlements on your behalf, act as your representative in court, and collect compensation for you if a settlement is reached or an award is given.

The job of a personal injury lawyer is not easy because they have to prove that you were socially, financially, physically, or psychologically affected by the actions or negligence of another person due to an accident. However, with our years of combined experience, we have the skills and knowledge needed to give you the most favorable outcome for your case.

    Frequently Asked Questions
    Helpful Insights

    Personal injury claims are lawsuits filed by individuals who have been injured by the negligent actions of someone else. Personal injuries may include bodily harm, emotional distress, property damage, medical bills, loss of income/wages, and other related expenses. A victim generally files a personal injury claim to recover damages or compensation for their losses. Filing a personal injury claim can be complicated, especially if you are filing against an insurance company. However, with the help of a personal injury law firm, you can ensure you get treated fairly throughout your process and get the compensation you deserve going forward.
    In general, statutes of limitations on injury claims in Georgia and South Carolina are 2 years. However, some circumstances could extend the statute of limitations. Since personal injury claims are complicated, it is recommended to contact a personal injury attorney as soon as possible following an accident. Doing so can ensure you file a claim well before the statute of limitations expires. This can help you avoid potential issues down the road and get the compensation you deserve going forward. As a general rule of thumb, the sooner you file a claim, the more likely it is your case will be successful.
    Damages are traditionally split into two categories— non-economic damages (e.g., pain and suffering, impairment) and economic damages (e.g., medical bills, lost income). You can also recover certain expenses if the accident was not your fault. The type of damages might depend on the specifics of your case, but you'll typically be able to recover money for any of these things: Increasing medical costs or other incidental problems that result from injury; Diminished quality of life including physical disability; Lost wages or decreased earning capacity following an accident; Lost earnings because more time needs to be taken off work after an accident than would have been necessary.
    This is something that needs to be determined based on your circumstance. However, there are some pointers that may help you make the best decision possible. How much did your injury affect your quality of life? This will depend partly on whether or not you’re able to work. If you were unable to earn an income due to the accident, this undoubtedly had an effect on your quality of life because if money was tight before the accident it will be even tighter now. The seriousness of your injury goes into determining how big a role it played in your quality of life. We can help you prove the extent of your injuries and get you the compensation you deserve.
    The answer to the question depends on how bad the personal injury is. For severe car crashes or accidents, you'll want to get a lawyer who can investigate your accident. Even if you only suffer minor injuries, consult a lawyer for peace of mind. Most lawyers are looking for cases even when there are clear signs of fault, so it won't hurt to check in with one before deciding whether or not you've got a case. You might also turn to lawyers that have great information about topics including personal injury law and insurance claims after accidents occur. We offer easy-to-follow advice with a free, initial consultation.
    Anyone who has been injured by another person or entity can file a personal injury claim. There does not need to be any other parties involved for someone to file a claim. For instance, if your spouse was killed in an auto accident due to worn-out brakes on another car, you would be able to file a wrongful death lawsuit against both the driver and their insurance company. The goal of this type of claim is to compensate you for any losses you have experienced. Let us help you get the justice you deserve for your personal injury claim today.
    When it comes to filing a personal injury claim, one of the most difficult parts is deciding whether or not you should file the claim. You may be able to get compensation for your injuries without going to court; however, if you want to ensure that you get the maximum amount of compensation possible, then it's best to consult with an experienced lawyer who can represent your case in or out of court. Personal injury lawyers from our law firm have experience handling all sorts of personal injury cases. You can rest assured that your claim will be in good hands from beginning to end.
    It depends on the severity of your injury, the severity of the other party's negligence, and who is injured. Most personal injury cases are settled out of court; this way there's no risk that an innocent person has to go through the stress of a trial if it could be avoided without sacrificing their compensation. However, if you end up in court for your case - know that you will have a relentless legal advocate by your side every step of the way if you hire a lawyer from our team. We will fight for your rights from beginning to end.
    Some people say that they believe it is better to settle an injury claim outside of court because their chances of getting more compensation are greater and often there is less stress and time spent dealing with the situation. On the other hand, others may choose to take the opportunity in front of a judge and jury where they can tell their story and request all potential damages. The best option might be based on the individual's situation, case specifics, litigation history, financial resources, and other factors. We will advise you on your best course of action so you can get the results you deserve.
    If you've recently had an accident, there are several things to consider. First and foremost, if your accident was the other person's fault, don't forget to collect evidence from the scene of your accident and seek medical attention. Next, you should contact a personal injury lawyer to see if you have a case and if so, discuss with your lawyer how to best protect your rights. If you've been in an automobile accident or any other type of personal injury accident, it's important to document as much as you possibly can, contact the authorities, and seek medical attention when you are capable.
    Not every personal injury claim is the same. Some accidents involving automobiles may differ from accidents involving pedestrian laws. Depending on the circumstances surrounding your particular case, your approach may differ from someone else's. However, seeking the help of a personal injury attorney can help you to determine what course of action is best. The amount of money awarded usually depends on the extent of your injuries and how long they will take to recover. Our personal injury law firm can fight tirelessly to get you compensated fairly for any damages you have sustained, no matter the type of accident you were injured in.
    Personal injury law is very complex, so it's important to speak with a professional shortly after your injury. Some personal injury cases can be resolved through mediation and don't end up in court and can be settled outside of court. Doing so may end up saving you time and money going forward. However, if a fair settlement can't be reached, you will need an experienced personal injury lawyer to help you build a strong case and seek the compensation you deserve. Our experienced team of personal injury lawyers can represent you soon after your accident occurs so you will have a strong advocate by your side from start to finish.
