Car Accidents Leave Victims in Pain

Catastrophic car accidents happen anywhere. Not only do they leave victims in pain, but catastrophic injuries can also leave the victim’s family in serious financial straits long after the accident. Over 1500 people die each year in Georgia in car accidents. While not all car accidents result in death, catastrophic car accidents can nonetheless leave victims with life-altering injuries.

    Resulting Injuries

    Car accident injuries are not severe in only high-speed accidents. Even slow-moving and visibly “minor” car accidents cause life-threatening and life-altering injuries. Catastrophic car accidents, however, almost always cause permanent or debilitating injuries.

    • Multiple broken bones
    • Loss of sight, hearing, and other senses
    • Concussions and other traumatic brain injuries
    • Spinal cord injuries
    • Paralysis
    • Internal injuries
    • Amputation
    • Neurological disorders
    • Permanent injuries to the central nervous system

    How Catastrophic Injuries

    Can Change Your Life Forever

    Catastrophic injuries resulting from a Woodstock Georgia car accident often lead to life-altering conditions like those listed above. These injuries also often result in lifelong medical treatment. The medical treatment you may need can cause financial hardship, which is made even worse when you are unable to return to work temporarily or permanently. Catastrophic injuries can have a substantial impact on the quality of your life, which could also result in emotional issues such as depression or anxiety.

    What to do After Your Accident

    The steps you take immediately after your accident play a big part in your ability to hold the at-fault party liable for your injuries. It’s important that you hold the responsible party liable so you do not end up paying out of pocket for your medical expenses; in particular, for injuries you played no part in causing.

    Call 911

    As soon as you are able, call the authorities. When the police arrive, they will create a diagram of your accident. They may not assign fault, but they will provide an objective description of what happened. They will also take witness statements which might provide a different perspective about the moments leading up to your accident.

    When you call 911, they will send medical help along with the police. Do not refuse medical attention. In a serious crash, you may have internal injuries and your only focus should be on your well being. After your accident, continue to follow doctor’s orders. The best chance you have to get better is to do as your medical professionals instruct.

    Seek medical attention

    Take pictures and speak with witnesses

    If you are not able to take pictures, ask a trusted family member or friend to do so. Pictures really do speak a thousand words. Getting pictures of all vehicles involved, the area around the accident, and your injuries can help us show someone else was at fault for your injuries. Witnesses provide alternative perspectives to your accident but not all witnesses will stick around to speak with the police. At a minimum, you should get witness contact information so that we can speak with them later.

    You need to let your insurance company know you were involved in an accident, but you should not immediately file a claim before consulting with an attorney; and you should certainly not give them a recorded statement before seeking counsel. While you may think your insurance company looks out for you, all they really look out for is their profits. When you speak with them, they may look for any opportunity to hold you fully or partially at fault for the accident. Even seemingly innocent statements like, “I just looked away for a second” or “Maybe I was going too fast” could lead to your claim being denied and you being held responsible for your accident. This is why it’s important to speak with a seasoned Georgia personal injury lawyer first.

    Keep a journal

    Your road to recovery will take a long time. You may require multiple surgeries, long hospital stays, and lots of time out of work. Over time, you will not recall every struggle and road block you encounter on your road to recovery. Keeping a journal will help. Write daily about your level of pain, your progress, and your setbacks. We can use your journal to help show your suffering and help maximize your recovery.

    The medical prognosis for your condition will play a part in determining what comes next for you and your loved ones. Your body is resilient and even in the worst of situations, can recover to some degree. But your mental healing may be even more extensive.

    Mental healing involves a positive attitude. It’s hard to be positive when you constantly worry about finances. To avoid this and focus where you need to, make sure you work with a skilled and experienced Woodstock Georgia personal injury lawyer who has your best interests at heart.

    Seeking Damages

    Depending on the severity of your injuries, your medical expenses may reach astronomical heights. Nearly two thirds of all bankruptcy filings in the United States result from medical bills. You can seek compensation for your injuries from the at-fault party in your accident.

    Working with a Woodstock personal injury lawyer, you can try to get compensation for:

    What you must keep in mind is that you did not cause the accident, and you should not bear any of the responsibility for any of these costs. Doing so only adds insult to injury. You deserve better. You deserve to keep your money in your pocket.

    Caution Toward Settlements

    Soon after your catastrophic car accident in Woodstock Georgia, you may receive a phone call from the insurance company of the at-fault driver. You get excited because they offer you a settlement. You want nothing more than to put this terrible situation behind you as quickly as possible. You are out of work, you have bills piling up, and you just want to get back to your regular life.

    When you take a low ball settlement offer, you may waive your right to bring any future claim against the insurance company for your accident. This means you could end up paying out of pocket for your medical expenses. The worst part is that you may not even realize the settlement funds were not enough until it’s too late. The insurance company is not interested in being fair – they simply want to keep as much money in their pocket as possible, even at your expense. 

    Please be cautious

    We have seen many people lured by the prospect of a quick settlement without realizing what the insurance company is doing – settling your case for less than it’s worth so they can keep more money in their pockets. This puts catastrophic car accident victims like you in financial hardship when you did nothing wrong. We do not want to see this happen to you.

    The best way to avoid this situation is by working with a skilled Woodstock personal injury lawyer. Working with a lawyer can help you avoid unknowingly settling your case for less than it’s worth.

    When you work with us, we can help you create an accurate estimate of your future medical needs. By discussing your prognosis, we can determine your future medical bills. We can also negotiate with the insurance company on your behalf. While most personal injury cases settle out of court, we only want to settle when it’s right for you. Sometimes, insurance companies refuse to be reasonable and we must take them to trial to maximize your financial recovery. You need a law firm with the resources required to manage a complex personal injury trial.
