Car/Auto Accidents

When you are involved in a car accident in Atlanta, Georgia and are injured as a result of another person's carelessness, Georgia law may give you the right to recover medical expenses, property damage, and lost wages, along with compensation for the pain you have suffered.  Even though monetary damages will never take away the pain and inconvenience of having a car accident, such compensation will help you pay for the costs of medical bills and repairs.  Having a lawyer who is compassionate and sympathetic to your situation and who will work diligently to recover for your losses can make a stressful experience a little easier.  The Law Offices of Betty Nguyen Davis will not only help you evaluate your potential personal injury claim due to a car accident in Georgia, but we will also do our best to provide sufficient guidance to ease your mind through the difficult experience.  We will answer questions that you have such as how much your Georgia personal injury claim is worth, whether insurance will cover the medical bills you have incurred, and how you can pay for treatment.

Most drivers have car insurance that will help pay for the medical treatment for your injuries, property damage to your vehicle, lost wages, and even pain and suffering.  The process of obtaining a recovery for your injuries and other damages begins with contacting your insurance company and the insurance company of the at-fault driver and could end with a trial in court if the insurance companies fail to pay a fair amount to compensate you for your losses.  Should the medical costs that you incur due to the car accident be more than the amount of insurance coverage available to the other driver, it is possible that your insurance company could also cover the costs of your medical treatment.  After you report the accident to the insurance companies, an adjuster from each company is assigned to your case.  The insurance adjusters evaluate the property damage to your car, your injuries and medical bills, and other damages, such as lost wages, when determining how much the insurance company will pay for the damages that resulted from your car accident.  You can negotiate your car accident claim with your insurance company yourself, but the unfortunate reality is that insurance companies often fail to fully pay victims of car accidents to fully compensate them for the injuries that they have suffered.  Thus, if you are represented by an attorney, you are more likely to be more fully compensated for your loss.  In a situation where you have been severely injured and the insurance company refuses to fairly compensate you, filing a lawsuit against the at-fault driver may be necessary.  Such a lawsuit could lead to a jury trial, where a panel of jurors will hear your and the other driver's stories in order to determine whether the other driver caused your injuries and the amount of money that would fairly compensate you for your losses.  To speak to an Atlanta injury attorney about recovering for personal injuries due to a car accident in Atlanta, please contact the Law Offices of Betty Nguyen Davis LLC at (404) 593-2620 for a free consultation.
