Step 1 – Contact a reputable Augusta personal injury law firm

The insurance company you’re dealing with may be your own or they may represent another party. Either way, they are not on your side. The insurance company has one goal: to pay you as little as possible, even if it means you can’t afford proper care.

Step 2 – Don’t sign anything from the insurance company until you speak to a lawyer

The first thing an insurance company will do is offer you easy money. It’s tempting to take this money, especially if your doctor bills, rent, or other expenses are piling up. But this initial amount is often just a fraction of what you really deserve—and to get it, you must sign away your rights. What if your injury requires further treatment? What if you miss weeks or even months of work while you recover? A personal injury attorney in Augusta, GA can help you get the full amount you’re owed—but only if you don’t sign anything first.

How do I know if I have a personal injury case?

The only way to know is to talk to a professional. Many people are quick to blame themselves for accidents, but those accidents could have been prevented if someone else had acted more carefully. This is the textbook definition of “negligence” by the other party, and it means you have a strong claim. These claims sometimes lead to a six figure or even seven figure settlements.

Any accident can be grounds for a personal injury case if it was caused by someone else’s negligence.

Do I have to go to court for an Augusta personal injury case?

In many cases no, you don’t have to. Our lawyers routinely see cases that get resolved either by directly negotiating with the insurance company, or by filing a lawsuit but then settling out of court. In most cases, the insurance company does not want to go to court any more than you do.

In some cases it may be worth it to pursue a case in court. This is when the total verdict amount could be far more than what the insurer offers. In these cases a good lawyer will not push you to settle. They will advise you to go through the local courts and they will be at your side every step of the way.

How much does it cost me to hire a personal injury lawyer in Augusta?

It should cost you nothing, until and unless your lawyer gets you a financial recovery. In other words—if they don’t get you money, you don’t pay a cent.

At John Foy & Associates, we only take our fee at the end, and it comes out of the settlement or verdict we win for you. Our payment structure is simple:

You pay nothing for the initial consultation or additional consultations
You pay nothing out of pocket, ever
You pay nothing unless we win you a recovery

We design our fees this way so that hiring a personal injury attorney in Augusta is a zero risk choice for you.
