Handling the Insurance Company

Dealing with an aggressive claims adjuster can be overwhelming for most accident victims, especially if they have no experience negotiating. Shortly after your accident, the other party’s insurer may try to contact you to record your statement and offer a low settlement. Instead of dealing with the insurance company, hire a personal injury lawyer at the Hines Law Firm. A personal injury lawyer on our legal team will handle all communication with the insurance company, including fighting for the fair settlement you deserve. If the insurance company is unwilling to make a reasonable offer, we can file a lawsuit on your behalf and represent you in court. Fortunately, most personal injury cases are settled out of court. An insurance company does not want to waste time, money, and resources on a long and time-consuming trial.

What is the Georgia Statute of Limitations?

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 Economic and Non-Economic Damages Can I Pursue?

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 Are Common Injuries Accident Victims Sustain?

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.

How Long Will It Take to Settle My Personal Injury Lawsuit?

A case can be settled in a matter of a few months or several years. 

How long it takes to settle your lawsuit can depend on many variables, including:

  • How willing the insurance company is to negotiate
  • The severity of your injuries
  • The number of parties involved
  • The overall complexity of the case
  • How soon you can get a trial date

Your attorney will work tirelessly to ensure the insurance company does not drag its feet and will continue to negotiate as they prepare for your trial. In most cases, a personal injury lawsuit will be settled out of court.

How Much Does it Cost to Hire a Personal Injury Lawyer in Georgia?

At the Hines Law Firm, our legal team works on a contingency fee basis. With this type of payment arrangement, you can obtain experienced legal representation, with no upfront costs. If your case is not successful, you will owe nothing. With this type of payment arrangement, an accident victim can work with a knowledgeable attorney as soon as possible after their accident, to increase their chances of a successful outcome.
