If you are hurt or injured in an automobile accident, truck
accident, slip and fall accident, or through other means, as a
result of someone else’s negligent or reckless conduct, you may be
entitled to recover money damages from the person or persons who
caused your injury. It is absolutely necessary that you get a copy
of your accident report, incident report and the names, addresses
and telephone numbers of any witnesses to your personal injury.
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 responsible person or persons.
The value of your personal injury claim is dependent upon many
factors, including the seriousness of your injuries, amount of
medical bills incurred, 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 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 a personal injury claim arises.
Therefore, it is absolutely necessary that you seek the advice of an
experienced personal injury trial lawyer who can review your case,
evaluate it, and then give you a clear and concise opinion of what
your case may be worth and what future steps are necessary to
protect your rights.
