What Does an Injury Attorney Do?

Accident injury attorneys are crucial in helping people just like yourself seek justice and fair compensation for their injuries. When our Sandy Springs injury attorneys take on cases, they first seek to understand the unique circumstances of an accident. Then, they gather evidence to demonstrate who was liable for the mishap, the impact of the injuries, and what compensation is appropriate. 

No matter the case, our firm aims to get maximum compensation. We want our clients to be able to cover medical bills and receive the wages they lost. In short, our attorney and supporting staff strive to provide clients with nothing less than what they deserve. 

Steps to Take If You Want to Make an Injury Claim

It is important to take immediate action after an accident.

The following steps may better your chances of making a successful personal injury claim:

  1. Seek medical attention: Even if your injuries appear minor, make sure to see a doctor. Some injuries may not be immediately evident, and a medical professional can provide an accurate assessment. Plus, an official medical report could serve as crucial evidence in your case. 
  2. Document everything: Take photos of the accident scene, gather witness information, keep copies of medical records and bills, and preserve any other evidence that may support your claim.
  3. Consult an injury lawyer: Consulting with a knowledgeable accident injury attorney is vital to understanding your legal rights and options. We provide free consultations at Huggins Accident Injury Lawyer, LLC, which makes it easy to get the information and guidance you need.

Personal Injury FAQ

  • Where Are Accidents More Likely to Happen in Atlanta?

    Though an accident can happen anywhere, there are some places in and around Atlanta where accidents are more likely to occur. Auto accidents will occur where traffic is heavy. Always take care when traveling in congested downtown areas, such as Moreland Avenue from S. River Industrial Blvd. to Wylie Street, Georgia Highway 85 from I-75 to Springdale Drive, I-285 from the Bouldercrest Road exit to the I-20 interchange, I-285 between the Camp Creek Parkway interchange and the Riverdale Road exit, and I-20 from Panola Road to Candler Road. Pedestrians are also common in these areas, and those on foot need to be aware of their surroundings.

    Unfortunately, recreational areas can also be sites of accidents. You might be injured in a boating or jet ski accident or have a slip and fall while hiking on a mountain trail.

    Popular recreational areas in Atlanta include:

    These popular recreational spots can provide enjoyment and fun for your family and loved ones. However, if you sustain an injury from an accident, be sure to consult with a personal injury lawyer right away.

  • What Types of Auto Accidents Occur in Atlanta?

    Negligent drivers are legally responsible for compensating victims who are injured by their negligence. Like other states, the law requires drivers to carry auto insurance with a minimum amount of $25,000.00 liability coverage in Georgia.

    Here are just some of the many things a driver could do to be found negligent:

    • Driving faster than is safe for current conditions (especially when the road is wet or visibility is low)
    • Driving while distracted by pets or children in the vehicle
    • Driving while under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or prescription medication
    • Driving while using a mobile device, navigation system, or built-in entertainment system
    • Eating or drinking while driving
    • Failing to control speed to avoid a collision
    • Failing to yield the right of way to a pedestrian or bicyclist
    • Improper left turns in a busy intersection
    • Improper right turns on a red light
    • Running a red light or stop sign
    • Unsafe lane changes

    The driver who is legally responsible for causing an accident (known as being liable) also has to compensate the victims of that accident for their injuries. Insurance companies start by investigating to determine which driver was at fault for the accident. There are many ways your personal injury lawyer can prove liability.

    A traffic citation issued by a police officer at the scene of the accident is strong evidence that the driver was violating traffic laws and was, therefore, negligent. Even when the at-fault driver receives no citation for a traffic or criminal violation, your lawyer can still prove that the driver was not driving with reasonable caution.

  • What Should I Do if I Sustain an Injury on the Job in Atlanta?

    After a workplace injury, the first thing you should do is seek medical attention for any injury you have sustained. If your injuries are severe enough, you may need the assistance of an ambulance. Regardless of whether or not you need transportation, you should still be seen by a doctor at an urgent care facility or an emergency room as soon as possible.

    Even if you do not think you are badly hurt, you could have latent injuries that can only be diagnosed by a doctor. Some of these conditions, such as internal bleeding, can quickly become life-threatening if they don’t receive treatment right away. It is also important to document your injuries and treatment as evidence for the legal claims you will file later.

    Hiring a personal injury attorney following a workplace accident that left you injured is crucial. Your employer might tell you that the company will handle the claim, but allowing the company to take the lead is not in your best interest. Remember that the company is the insured party and has a financial stake in your claim. You should never take legal advice from the opposing party (in this case, your employer).

    A personal injury or workers’ compensation attorney will help you fill out the appropriate claims forms. The attorney will also protect your legal right to compensation by taking over communications with the insurance company, allowing you to focus on your recovery.

  • How Can an Atlanta Personal Injury Lawyer Protect My Legal Rights?

    Some accident victims choose to handle their personal injury claims without an attorney. You have the right to do this, but doing so would most likely work against your interest. Injury victims without an attorney consistently receive lower settlements than those who have a lawyer.

    An injury victim with no experience in personal injury claims might not know how to prove the value of their pain, suffering, and other intangible losses, whereas a seasoned personal injury lawyer has experience in presenting these losses persuasively to claims adjusters and jurors. An attorney will also know how your case compares to comparable injury cases, a useful reference when determining the fairness of a settlement offer from the insurance company.

    Insurance companies will take steps to pay as little money as possible for a claim. Suppose the company suspects that you are exaggerating your injuries. In that case, they may hire a private investigator to follow you to your workplace and home, hoping to gather evidence proving you are not as injured as you claim to be. The investigator may focus on getting photos or videos of you engaging in a physical activity that your injuries should have prevented.

    For example, if you claim that you can’t play sports due to a painful arm injury, the investigator might try to get footage of you lifting groceries out of your car to prove that you can, in fact, use your arm. Personal injury lawyers have experience with insurance company tactics.

    An attorney can prevent you from saying something to the insurance company that could hurt your claim. Once the insurance company discovers that you have secured representation, all communication about the claim must go through your attorney’s office. Injury victims who do not hire a lawyer must speak with the insurance company frequently.

    The company may request the victim provide a recorded statement about how the accident happened. They will be asked about their injuries and invited to say all sorts of things that could be misrepresented by the insurance company to reduce the value of the claim. Avoid this scenario by hiring a personal injury lawyer so that the lawyer can be present for any deposition you give.

    These are just a few of the many things a personal injury lawyer can do to protect your claim. An injury victim will not know all the tactics that an insurance company will use to reduce the value of their claims, which further emphasizes why it is so important to work with an experienced lawyer who knows exactly how to protect your legal right to compensation.

Fortunately, at Huggins Accident Injury Lawyer, we work with our clients on a contingency fee basis, which means that you do not have to pay anything up-front for legal representation and that we will never collect legal fees unless we successfully recover compensation on your behalf.
