3 questions to help you decide if you have a personal injury case

Have you been injured in a car or workplace accident? Accidents happen. It’s a simple fact of life.  Everyone, even the most cautious people out there, will be involved in an accident at some point.

But what happens when the accident wasn’t your fault? If so, you may be wondering if you have a case. If this has happened to you, then you may have grounds for a personal injury claim.

Important questions to ask yourself

It is a good idea to educate yourself on Georgia’s accident and injury laws. In addition, here are some important questions to ask yourself before making decisions:

  1. Liability: Did the injury happen because of someone else’s negligence or carelessness? Have you been injured by an accident or incident that was not your fault and is related to a product, service or premises defect?
  2. Damages other than physical: Did the injury cause you financial damages, such as lost wages, medical bills, property damage etc?
  3. Injury or death: Are you unable to handle your normal day-to-day activities, such as work or hobbies that make you happy? Was your injury severe enough to require medical attention or result in a disability or disfigurement that will last for more than six months and is not likely to improve without treatment?

Accidents happen. Understandably, this can be frustrating and upsetting. That’s why it is imperative to keep a positive outlook and never lose sight of the big picture.

If you or a loved one has been injured in an accident that wasn’t your fault, it is important to learn about your legal options and what your best course of action may be.

The most crucial thing for personal injury victims to remember is that time counts in these cases. It is important to act as soon as possible, so the investigation of your case can start with gathering evidence while your memories are fresh. This allows time to build the strongest argument possible on your behalf to seek compensation for damages caused by someone else’s negligence.
