Being in a car accident can be unsettling. In some instances, it can be life-changing. The reverberations can be felt for months – even years – after the initial impact. However, please don’t feel you have to go through it alone. While the responding law enforcement officer and your insurance agent may be able to help you navigate your way through a basic fender bender, a question many people may have is, “When do I need to hire an attorney?” Although there can be many reasons to enlist the aid of a skilled lawyer, auto accident attorney John Edmonson of The Edmonson Law Firm breaks those reasons down to the top three.
You Have Incurred a Car Accident Injury
If you have been involved in an automobile accident that resulted in a personal injury, it’s crucial to hire an experienced auto accident attorney. Beyond damages to cover the repairs to or replacement of your car, you’ll want to ensure that any lost wages or medical bills you’ve incurred from your car accident injury are covered. A personal injury lawyer in Buford, Georgia, stands at the ready to help you – John Edmonson of The Edmonson Law Firm. Not limited to clients in the City of Buford alone, Georgia’s Hometown Law Firm also serves auto accident victims in Banks, Barrow, Clarke, Dawson, Elbert, Forsyth, Gwinnett, Habersham, Hall, Jackson, Lumpkin, Madison, Oconee, Rabun, Townes, Union, Walton, and White Counties.
The Other Driver Denies Liability
If you’ve been involved in a car accident and are confident your actions are not to blame, you will need the aid of a skilled auto accident attorney to build your case. It’s not uncommon for the other driver to refuse to accept liability – after all, between car repairs and injuries resulting in medical bills, a car accident can be costly. They may also be motivated by a fear of losing their insurance coverage. Once you opt to team up with The Edmonson Law Firm, we can take your account of the accident, match it against the police report, and review other surrounding circumstances – such as the other driver’s driving record. We’ll take all the steps necessary to ensure you have a solid case that may be settled before you go to court to seek the damages you are due.
Your Insurance Company Denies Your Claim
It may seem like an insult to injury when the other driver’s insurance company denies your car accident injury claim. But, unfortunately, it’s something we witness all too often. Rest assured; their insurance company will have a team of attorneys working on their behalf. That’s why you’ll want to team up with a firm specializing in personal injury law – like The Edmonson Law Firm. We will skillfully build your case so you are sufficiently awarded the pain and suffering, lost wages, and medical bill compensation you are owed.
While the statute of limitations is two years in Georgia to file a personal injury lawsuit, it’s wise to do so as early as possible following your car accident.
