What steps should I take immediately following an accident?

Report the accident to the police right away and seek medical treatment for your injuries. If you can do so while you wait for police to arrive, document the accident scene by taking pictures. If there were witnesses to the accident, document what they saw and capture their names and contact information. As soon as you are able to do so after receiving medical care, consult with an experienced personal injury attorney who can help you understand your rights.

Will I be able to obtain compensation for my injuries?

You may be entitled to compensation if your injuries were caused (or were primarily caused) by someone else’s negligence. Every situation is different. When you consult with a personal injury lawyer, the attorney should be able to help you understand the potential strength of your case and provide an estimate on what your claim may be worth, so you can make an informed decision about how to proceed.

Is there a time limit for filing a personal injury claim?

Yes. Unfortunately, the statute of limitations in Georgia means that if you wait too long to file a claim, you may not be entitled to receive any compensation. Because of this, it is important to talk to an attorney to understand and preserve your rights as soon as you feel able to do so.

Will I have to go to court to obtain compensation for my injuries?

Most personal injury claims can be resolved without going to court. When you work with Van Sant Law, we will negotiate on your behalf to try to obtain a full and fair settlement. In the event negotiations fail, we will be prepared to litigate your claim, advocating for your rights in court.
