Your pedestrian accident attorney will review your case and assess damages to ensure you recover every penny of compensation you’re owed.
What is My Accident Claim Worth?
Your attorney will let you know a rough estimate of how much your claim is worth once they have learned all the facts. However, there are some common factors that can affect how much compensation you’re entitled to, including:
- The severity of your injuries
- Your prognosis
- How much time you missed at work
- How your injuries have affected your life
- Whether you will be forced to switch careers due to your injuries
- Whether you will be unable to return to work at all due to your injuries
- Whether you will require medical treatment in the future
When you hire an experienced attorney at the Hines Law Firm for your personal injury claim, they may consult with experts to determine the true value of your damages and future medical expenses.

What is the Statute Of Limitations in Georgia?
In Georgia, pedestrian accident victims will have two years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit against the negligent party. If a lawsuit is not filed by the deadline, the accident victim will be unable to recover any compensation for their accident-related losses. When you hire an attorney at the Hines Law Firm, they will handle every aspect of your case, including ensuring your lawsuit is filed within the statute of limitations.
How Much Does it Cost to Hire a Pedestrian Accident Lawyer?
At Hines Law Firm, our pedestrian accident attorneys work on a contingency fee basis. With this type of payment arrangement, accident victims will not have to pay for any out-of-pocket expenses or attorney fees unless their case is successful. Because memories can fade and evidence may be lost or destroyed, it's important to take action against careless drivers quickly. It also allows accident victims to be able to hold the liable parties accountable and come back from any financial damage.
With a contingency fee payment arrangement, accident victims can obtain experienced legal representation as soon as possible.
