Our legal team of attorneys specializes in auto accidents, tractor trailer accidents, personal injuries, and slip and falls. In Georgia, a Plaintiff has 2 years to bring a claim against a defendant for any injuries he has sustained from an accident. Although 2 years may seem like a long time, it’s important to have an attorney work on your case immediately after the accident because critical evidence can dissipate. Witnesses move, tire streaks fade, and sometimes the person in the accident cannot remember the facts clearly.
After an accident, visit your nearest emergency room. Not only is it prudent to visit your local hospital after an accident to determine the extent of your injuries, but legally a person does not have a case unless they seek medical treatment. Put another way, if someone is seriously injured in a car accident but does not seek medical treatment, Georgia law states that person is not entitled to compensation from the at-fault party.
