Can any attorney handle a personal injury case?

Any attorney that is licensed in the jurisdiction where your case is can represent you. But a personal injury attorney has specialized experience and resources. They understand how a personal injury claim can be complex, and they can identify issues that are the most important to your case. At The Persons Firm, our entire practice is devoted to the needs of personal injury victims.

How long do I have to file a personal injury claim?

Most Georgia personal injury claims must be filed within two years of the accident. When a claim involves the government, the deadline is much shorter. You should never wait to contact a lawyer to start preparing your case.

How do you start a personal injury case?

You start a personal injury case by determining the grounds for compensation and who may be responsible to pay. Then, you prepare a summons and complaint, file it in the court with jurisdiction, and serve each defendant. Sometimes, you can negotiate a settlement directly with the insurance company. But direct negotiations don’t count as formally starting a personal injury case. While you negotiate, the deadline to start the case still applies.

What is a personal injury consultation?

A personal injury consultation is a conversation with a lawyer about your case. The consultation may cover whether you have a claim for personal injury compensation, what your claim may be worth and the strengths and weaknesses of the case. You will talk about how legal representation works. You’ll meet the legal team that would handle your case if you hire them.

What kind of lawyer do I need to sue for an injury?

A lawyer who handles injury lawsuits is a personal injury lawyer. You choose and hire the lawyer yourself. They represent your interests and file a legal claim on your behalf.

Do I have a good personal injury case?

To have a good personal injury case, you must have evidence to prove that someone else is legally at fault for causing your injuries. Usually, this is based on negligence, or their failure to exercise reasonable care and caution in a situation. It may also be based on recklessness or intentional harm. In addition, you must show what damages you have and what compensation you should receive.

How much compensation can I get for an injury case?

In Georgia, each case for personal injury compensation is valued individually. It depends on the defendant’s degree of fault and what damages you have. Damages may include economic and non-economic harm. Non-economic harm means pain and suffering, emotional anguish, disability and other intangible losses.

Will I have to testify in court for my personal injury case?

We understand the thought of going to court can cause anxiety. Most personal injury cases don’t require the victim to testify in court. As your lawyers, we’ll work to understand your goals. If called to testify, we’ll prepare with you and represent you in court. With our team of personal injury lawyers, you’ll always be supported and prepared.
