What to Know About Personal Injury Law in Georgia
Should you sustain an injury in a car wreck, truck collision, premises liability accident, or another mishap, Georgia law allows you to seek compensation. Generally, you would pursue compensation from the at-fault party’s insurance company. However, you can also file a personal injury lawsuit if the at-fault party is uninsured or an insurance settlement is insufficient.
It is important to note that Georgia is a modified comparative negligence state. This means you can recover damages for accidents you were partially responsible for. But your degree of fault will reduce the amount of available damages.
Georgia’s Statute of Limitations for Personal Injury
In Georgia, the statute of limitations for personal injury lawsuits is two years from the date of the injury. The statute of limitations should not be confused with the deadline for filing an insurance claim. In most cases, you must notify the at-fault party’s insurance company of the accident and your intent to file a claim within a few days or weeks. If you fail to do so, the insurance company may deny your claim. These timelines underscore why contacting an attorney as soon as possible after an accident is important.
What Is the Average Settlement Amount?
There is no “average” settlement for a personal injury claim. The value of yours will depend on the severity of your injuries, the extent of the damage, and the at-fault party’s insurance policy limits, among other things.
Generally, you can seek compensation for the following:
- Medical expenses
- Lost wages
- Lost earning capacity
- Property damage
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
- Disfigurement and scarring
- Disabilities
- Reduced quality of life
How Long Does It Take to Settle a Personal Injury Claim?
Personal injury cases do not have definite timelines. Some settle in months, while others take years to resolve. Our team at Anderson Law understands you want compensation for your injuries as soon as possible. This is why you can count on us to work hard to promptly reach a settlement without cutting corners.
