What Evidence Can Help My Personal Injury Case?

Your personal injury lawyer will investigate your accident and gather evidence that can support your claim.

Evidence may include:

Police report/accident report
Eyewitness statements
Phone records
Medical records
Medical bills
Vehicle repair estimates
Expert testimony
Photos of your injuries, the accident scene, any property damage
Photos of anything that may have contributed to the accident

What is the Statute of Limitations in Georgia?

Accident victims will have two years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit and pursue compensation. If you miss this important deadline, your case may be barred from court. This means you will be unable to recover any compensation for your accident-related expenses. At the Hines Law Firm, when you work with one of our personal injury lawyers, they will handle every aspect of your case, including ensuring your lawsuit is filed within the statute of limitations.

What Types of Damages Can I Recover?

The damages you’re entitled to will depend on many variables, such as:

The severity of your injuries
Insurance policy limits
Your prognosis
Whether multiple parties were at fault
Your level of fault
How much time you missed at work
How the accident has impacted your life
And many other factors.

At the Hines Law Firm, our legal team will investigate your accident and may consult with experts to determine which damages you should pursue.

In some cases, accident victims can pursue the following types of economic and non-economic damages:

Pain and suffering
Past and future medical care costs
Lost wages
Property damage
Loss of consortium
Loss of quality of life
Emotional distress
Loss of enjoyment of life
Permanent disability
Scarring and disfigurement

What Can I Do to Strengthen My Personal Injury Case?

Following an accident, to strengthen your injury case, seek medical treatment as soon as possible, even if you feel fine. Some types of injuries may not present symptoms immediately and a medical assessment can identify certain dangerous injuries. You also must follow your doctor’s treatment instructions and complete all recommended medical treatments to increase the chances of recovering a high settlement amount. Documentation concerning the severity of your injuries can also make a major difference in the outcome of your claim.

Make sure you report the accident or incident to the police and notify the manager or property owner if you are injured on someone’s property. Never speak to the insurance company, sign any documents, or agree to anything without first speaking with your personal injury lawyer.

At the Hines Law Firm, our legal team will investigate your accident and may consult with experts to determine which damages you should pursue.

What Are Common Injuries in Personal Injury Cases?

An accident victim may suffer mild to life-changing injuries. At the Hines Law Firm, our personal injury attorneys have handled many accident claims that involved the following types of injuries:

Spinal cord injuries
Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)
Nerve damage
Chest injuries
Leg and arm injuries
Back injuries
Neck injuries
Whiplash
Road rash
Broken bones/bone fractures
Hearing loss or vision loss
Crush injuries
Facial or dental injuries
Loss of limb
Burns
Internal organ damage
Internal bleeding

If you suffered life-altering injuries, your personal injury attorney may work with medical professionals, occupational therapists, physical therapists, economists, life care planners, and other experts, to determine the cost of future medical care.

What is a Demand Letter?

A demand letter is a formal request by the accident victim to the at-fault party or the insurance company seeking compensation for the expenses they incurred as a result of an accident.

Demand letters are an attempt to settle the case instead of filing a personal injury lawsuit. A demand letter can be submitted by a personal injury attorney or the injured party. An exaggerated or poorly written demand letter can hurt the accident victim’s chances of recovering the compensation they’re owed. Instead, a demand letter should be truthful and factual.

Because of this, it’s important to hire an experienced personal injury attorney at the Hines Law Firm. They can handle drafting and submitting the demand letter and know how to skillfully write a compelling demand letter that can help you obtain the fair settlement you deserve.
