Auto Accidents | Personal Injury | Product Liability | Workers Compensation | Maritime Admiralty

Automobile accidents are one of the most frequent causes of serious injury and harm to the general public. If you are hurt or injured in an automobile accident, as a result of someone else’s negligent or reckless conduct, you may be entitled to recover money damages from the person or company who caused your injury. It is absolutely necessary that you get a copy of your accident report, incident report, the names, addresses and telephone numbers of any witnesses, and copies of photographs of the vehicles involved in the accident.

Tennessee and Georgia law both provide that you are entitled to recover certain money damages that arise out of your personal injury. This would include medical bills incurred for the treatment of your injury, pain, and suffering caused by the injury, mental anguish, lost wages from work, lost future earnings, and possibly punitive damages to punish the persons responsible for causing your injuries.

The value of your personal injury claim is dependent upon many factors, including the seriousness of your injuries, the amount of medical bills incurred, the amount of lost wages, and the percentage of permanent injury, if any, that you have sustained as a result of your personal injury.

There are numerous legal requirements that must be followed to pursue your automobile accident claim. There are also certain time limits within which you must file your claim for personal injury or it is barred. There are a number of questions that the average person does not know how to answer. For example, should you give a recorded statement to the insurance adjuster? Should you sign a release of your claim for payment of medical bills only? When should you file a claim or lawsuit?

Insurance companies have an army of investigators and attorneys who are immediately called upon when an automobile accident claim arises.
