Griffin Personal Injury Resources from Wolfe Law Group
If you have been injured in an accident due to the fault of another person, and are considering hiring a personal injury lawyer, the information below will be useful to you.
How do I know if I have a Griffin personal injury case?
Personal injury law relates to situations where negligence has occurred. Negligence happens when one party (an individual or business) has a duty to act or refrain from acting due to a particular duty or standard of care, the party fails to fulfill that duty, and that failure to follow the duty both actually and proximately causes damages to a victim. Victims who are involved in these types of incidents often hire a personal injury attorney or law firm to represent them. A case involving this type of incident normally involves lawyers fighting an insurance company.
What are considered damages in personal injury?
Damages come in different forms in a personal injury case. General damages come from the pain and suffering caused by your injury or injuries. This includes mental anguish and diminished quality of life. Normally a greater amount of damages are awarded for a catastrophic injury compared to a soft tissue injury. During your personal injury claim, you will likely incur medical expenses. As an injured victim you may also incur lost wages due to your injuries. Medical expenses and lost wages are considered special damages. During personal injury cases, your Griffin personal injury lawyer will gather your medical records and medical bills to substantiate the value of the compensation that should be paid for your personal injury case.
What steps should I take after a Griffin car accident?
Immediately after an accident, the first step to take is to call 911 and report any injuries that you may have. If you need emergency medical care for injuries from the motor vehicle accident, go seek it now. Apart from contacting law enforcement and seeking medical treatment as needed, the most important steps for victims to take after automobile accidents relate to documenting the incident.
Take photographs of the car accident and give them to your attorney
Your attorney‘s primary job as your legal representation is to obtain the maximum compensation possible for you. A trial attorney proves cases through presentation of evidence to a judge or jury. Lawyers present evidence in a compelling way to tell their client’s story. Photographs and video are two of the principal forms of evidence used by trial lawyers in court in a personal injury case involving a car crash.
For these reasons, it is very important that you take photographs of the damage to ALL of the vehicles involved in the crash. You should take many photographs, from different angles, both close up, and from far away. You should also take photographs of the scene of the crash, whether it be an intersection or on the side of a roadway. There may be debris on the roadway that demonstrates the severity of the crash.
