The Two Things You Should Do After Any Injury
The days after an injury are stressful. There’s physical pain, mounting financial worries, and in some cases you may be facing an injury that will never fully heal. Don’t let this period of confusion and uncertainty derail your life. There are two simple things you should do after any injury to protect your rights:
- Don’t sign anything from the insurance company until you have legal advice. Often, the first thing the insurance company will do after your injury is swoop in and offer you fast cash. They know that this offer is tempting: you already have medical bills to worry about, and the check can seem like a godsend. But when they use this tactic, it means they are likely offering you far less than the injury will truly end up costing—they want you to sign away your rights before you learn the full extent of the damage. Don’t fall for it. Never accept a check, sign any paperwork, or give a recorded statement to the insurance company until you have gotten a professional legal opinion on your claim.
- Take the time to talk to a personal injury lawyer. When a lawyer offers a free consultation, there is absolutely no harm in going in and discussing your case—and in many cases it could lead to recovering substantially more money. A good personal injury lawyer has seen dozens of cases similar to yours and knows what you are likely to win if you pursued a claim. Take the time to meet, as your lawyer questions, and get to know your options before you proceed.

How do I know if I have a valid personal injury case?
The only way to be sure is to speak to a professional. However, as a general rule, if the accident was not your fault you likely have a claim. We see far too many injury victims who are quick to blame themselves, or simply chalk up their injury as a pure accident. But this is not how the law sees it. Most accidents are a result of negligence. Negligence simply means that someone else could have prevented your accident if they were more careful, thoughtful or attentive. The fact that they were negligent does not make them a bad person, and it doesn’t mean they did anything intentionally wrong. But it does mean that their insurance is liable for the cost of your injuries.
The most common types of personal injury claims we see include:
- Car accidents, truck accidents and motorcycle accidents
- Slip and fall injuries
- Pedestrian or cyclist hit by a car
- Injuries caused by criminal assault
- Neglect and mistreatment in nursing homes
- Injuries caused by a defective product
- Medical device injuries
- Prescription drugs that cause harm or were filled incorrectly
However, nearly any type of injury can qualify as a claim in the right circumstances.

Do I have to go to court?
In most cases no, you do not. Occasionally we will run into an insurance company that absolutely refuses to budge. This is usually either because they are over-confident in the evidence they have, or because they think they can convince a jury not to take your injury seriously. If this is the case with your claim, we will give you our advice on whether it’s worth it to take your claim all the way to the local courts. If you decide to go to trial we will handle every step of the process.
More often, however, once you have a lawyer on your side the insurance company will come to the bargaining table. Our goal is to build the strongest possible case for the amount you need—including opinions from medical experts, an assessment of all long-term costs of your injury, and our own investigation into how the injury happened. When we confront the insurance company with this evidence, we can often drive up the amount they offer you. In many cases, you can get a fair recovery without ever going to court.

Is there a deadline to file an injury claim in Lawrenceville?
Yes, there are deadlines for all personal injury cases and they are strictly enforced. In the City of Lawrenceville, these deadlines are set by both Georgia state law and US federal law. The specific deadlines will depend on the type of case you have:
- Some types of claims have up to two years from the date of the accident
- Others may have only weeks
Missing the deadline means you lose your chance to recover money—forever. This is why it’s so important to act quickly and talk to a lawyer.
