Frequently Asked Questions About Personal Injuries
- Car Accidents — Motorists who have suffered injuries in auto accidents need to know what they should — and should not — do when talking to the insurance companies and the authorities. They also often have questions about what types of damages they can recover, what insurance will and won’t pay for and how to pursue a claim.
- Truck Accidents — Wrecks involving heavy commercial vehicles can be among the most devastating accidents. People who have been in truck accidents are interested in what makes them different from auto accident cases and what options they have when it comes to recovering full compensation for their injuries.
- Motorcycle Accidents — Because motorcycles lack a protective structure, motorcyclists can suffer particularly severe injuries. People who have been involved in a motorcycle crash might have questions about how liability is determined, the effect of not wearing a helmet, how they should deal with insurance companies and what sort of damages they can receive for potentially debilitating injuries.
- Pedestrian Accidents — Pedestrians also face the threat of substantial injuries in a collision. If you were hit by a car, you likely have questions about whether the motorist will be required to compensate you for your injuries, what type of damages you can recover and what role will be played by the motorist’s insurance coverage and your own policy.
- DUI/Drunk Driving Accidents — Drunk drivers pose a grave threat to everyone who uses Georgia’s roads. Individuals who have been hurt in a DUI accident need information about what damages they can recover and what sources of compensation they can tap in case their losses are greater than the drunk driver’s policy limits. You might also be interested in statistics about where drunk driving accidents happen in Georgia and how the law treats impaired drivers.
- Slip-and-fall Accidents — If you have fallen and suffered an injury on someone else’s property, you are likely curious about whether the owner or other responsible party can be held liable for your injuries. You probably want to know what you need to establish in order to have a successful slip-and-fall claim and what types of compensation you can recover.
- Workers’ Compensation — Employees who have suffered on-the-job injuries need to know how Georgia’s workers’ compensation system functions when it comes to claiming the benefits they are entitled to. It’s common to have questions about how to file for workers’ comp benefits, what type of compensation you can recover and what you need to do in case your claim is denied.
