MOTOR VEHICLE ACCIDENTS – Accidents involving cars, trucks, motorcycles and pedestrians are among the most common reasons for personal injury lawsuits. Distracted drivers, aggressive drivers, reckless drivers and drunk and drugged drivers often cause crashes that lead to debilitating injuries. If you’ve been the victim of a negligent driver, turn to an experienced Atlanta personal injury lawyer with a long track record of getting results.
PROPERTY INJURIES – slips, trips and falls that cause serious harm and lead to expensive medical bills can happen when hazardous conditions exist on properties. Property owners who know of these conditions and don’t fix them can be held liable when people are injured. Other examples of property injuries include burns, electrocution from faulty wiring and carbon monoxide poisoning when properties fail to have working detectors installed.
PRODUCT DEFECT INJURIES – Products that are sold on the market are supposed to be safe, but sometimes they are not. When consumers are injured by defective and malfunctioning products they may seek compensation through a legal claim. Product liability claims can arise from poorly designed or manufactured products, products made of unsafe materials, or when products are marketed and sold without proper warning labels.
CATASTROPHIC INJURIES – Catastrophic injuries are the worst of all injuries and can change lives forever. Traumatic brain injuries happen from falls, blows to the head or objects piercing the skull. Spinal cord injuries ranging from mild whiplash to complete paralysis can be the result of car accidents, falls from heights and other negligent accidents. Sometimes victims of serious accidents lose limbs or suffer internal injuries and organ damage. People who experience catastrophic injuries may need expensive lifelong medical care and may never be able to work again.
WRONGFUL DEATH – When someone dies from an injury caused by negligence or by intentional acts, their survivors may wish to file a wrongful death claim for damages that can include lost wages, loss of care and companionship, and funeral and burial expenses, among other things. In Georgia, survivors who can bring wrongful death claims include spouses and children. If the person who died was unmarried and had no children, a claim may be brought by their parents or the personal representative of their estate. Our compassionate Atlanta personal injury attorney will advise you about the process.
