When Should Drivers Contact a Car Accident Attorney?

It’s essential to contact an attorney quickly after a crash so you can get immediate advice and avoid mistakes that could compromise your claim. A lawyer can help after any accident involving injuries, property damage, or death.

In addition to contacting a lawyer, make sure that you seek treatment for any injuries caused by the collision. Car crashes often result in broken bones, burns, traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), whiplash, and spinal cord injuries (SCIs).

Getting prompt medical care can improve your chances of making a full recovery and establish that the accident caused your injuries. Finally, we recommend you report the accident to the police and your insurance company.

What Compensation do You Receive After a Car Crash?

Drivers hurt in a car accident have a chance to secure compensation to cover their:

Healthcare Bills

An attorney can help you secure money for your current and future medical expenses. You may receive damages for your emergency treatment, time in the hospital, medications, physical therapy, and any necessary assistive devices.

Property Damage

Car accidents often result in high repair bills to get your vehicle back on the road. Some collisions total vehicles, requiring drivers to replace their cars. We can factor these losses into your claim.

Lost Pay and Earning Potential

We know you may need time off to recover from a car crash. We’ll include your lost wages in your claim.

Some drivers can seek compensation for their lost earning potential if they sustain a disabling injury in a crash. For example, we may pursue this compensation if your accident leaves you paralyzed or requires the amputation of a limb.

Non-Economic Losses

An attorney can also help you get funds for the non-economic losses caused by your crash. These losses include your mental suffering and emotional pain as well as loss of consortium and companionship.

We can explain how to calculate pain and suffering in a car accident claim and answer any other questions you have.

Who Covers the Costs of Your Car Accident?

The individual responsible for causing your collision should cover your losses. In many cases, a Georgia car accident lawyer will build a claim against another motorist who engaged in dangerous behavior, like speeding or ignoring red lights.

However, in some cases, we may help with a product liability claim if a defective product caused your crash. For example, defective braking systems can cause collisions. In this case, we may seek compensation from the vehicle manufacturer.
