Understanding Georgia’s Personal Injury Laws
Georgia has specific laws that impact your ability to file a personal injury claim. One of the most important is the statute of limitations. In most cases, you have two years from the date of the injury to file a lawsuit. Missing this deadline can prevent you from recovering anything at all. Learn more about the Georgia personal injury statute of limitations here.
Additionally, Georgia follows a “fault-based” system, meaning the party responsible for causing your injuries can be held financially liable. However, Georgia also applies the rule of comparative fault, which means if you’re partially at fault, your compensation may be reduced accordingly. You can learn more about Georgia’s at-fault laws here.
What Compensation Is Available?
In a valid personal injury case, you may be eligible to recover compensation for:
- Medical bills (including future care)
- Lost wages and reduced earning capacity
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
- Physical disfigurement or permanent scarring
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Wrongful death (in fatal injury cases)
Each case is unique. The value of your claim will depend on the severity of your injuries, the cost of care, your prognosis, and who is responsible.
Who May Be Liable for a Serious Injury?
Depending on the type of accident, several parties may be held accountable:
- Negligent drivers (or companies) in car, truck, or motorcycle accidents
- Business owners who fail to maintain safe premises
- Healthcare providers or hospitals who deliver substandard care
- Nursing homes that neglect or abuse residents
- Manufacturers of defective or dangerous products
- Property managers who fail to secure or maintain rental properties
Our firm conducts thorough investigations, collects evidence, and works with medical and technical experts to prove liability and maximize your claim.
What Makes a Valid Personal Injury Case?
To have a successful personal injury claim, we must prove that:
- Someone owed you a legal duty of care
- They breached that duty through negligence or wrongdoing
- Their actions directly caused your injuries
- You suffered significant damages as a result
These elements can be difficult to prove without legal representation. That’s why it’s critical to work with a law firm that has the experience, resources, and track record to take on insurance companies, hospitals, trucking companies, and other powerful defendants.
