The aftermath of an auto accident can be frustrating, painful, and overwhelming.

Shortly after an accident, the other driver’s insurance company may try to contact you and ask to record your statement. During this time, they may seem helpful and friendly, but their goal is to get you to admit fault or say something that could harm your claim. They may also offer a settlement at this time, but these initial settlements are never enough to cover the cost of your economic and non-economic damages. These offers are also usually made before an insurance adjuster even knows the extent of your injuries. The insurance adjuster may try to pressure you into accepting their offer, claiming it’s the only offer you’re going to get. Instead of dealing with an aggressive claims adjuster, contact a car accident attorney at the Hines Law Firm as soon as possible.
A car accident attorney can handle all communication with the insurance adjuster, including settlement negotiations. While we negotiate with the insurance company, you can focus on your recovery.

If the insurance company refuses to make a fair settlement offer, your car accident attorney can file a lawsuit on your behalf and represent you in court. As they prepare for trial, your attorney will continue to negotiate with the insurance company. Fortunately, most car accident cases are settled out of court.
We’re Committed to Your Success
The economic and non-economic damages you’re entitled to will depend on the circumstances surrounding your case, such as the extent of your injuries, how much time you missed at work, and how the accident has affected your life. At the Hines Law Firm, we will carefully review your case and consult with experts to accurately assess your damages.

In Georgia, you can still recover compensation for your auto accident damages even if you were 49% at fault for the collision.

At the Hines Law Firm, we have handled many car accident claims over the years that have involved the following types of injuries:
Accident victims will have two years from the date of a collision to file a lawsuit and pursue compensation for their accident-related expenses. The failure to file within this time frame can result in a case being dismissed, preventing the accident victim from recovering any compensation for their damages.
