Understanding Georgia Personal Injury Claims
When someone is injured in Georgia because of someone else’s negligence, they may be entitled to seek compensation to cover expenses that are the result of their injuries as well as for their pain and suffering. In the horrific situation when someone dies because of someone else’s negligence, their immediate family members may seek compensation for things such as the victim’s medical bills, lost wages, and their grief and suffering. Georgia personal injury claims are governed by a modified comparative negligence rule. This means that even if the victim is partly at fault for their injury, as long as they are found to be less than 50% responsible for it, they may be able to recover some damages for it. There is a two-year statute of limitations from the date of an injury to when it is filed. If you or someone you care about has been injured because of someone else’s negligence, a Cobb County pedestrian accident lawyer may be able to help you.
Pedestrian Accident Injuries
Compared to cars and other vehicles on the road, pedestrians have no protection in a collision. They are vulnerable even when they are in crosswalks, on sidewalks, and in areas designated for pedestrians. Because of this, pedestrian accident injuries tend to be very serious and are often life-threatening and life-altering. Recovering from a pedestrian accident injury is typically expensive and prevents the victim from working anywhere from a few days to a few years, and in extreme cases, the victim may never be able to return to the kind of work they did before their accident or to any work at all. Whether your or your loved one’s injuries are mild or severe, many people recommend that the victim and their family discuss their situation with a reliable traffic injury lawyer as soon as possible.
