Your Rights After an Auto Accident
Because Lawrenceville is located in Georgia, Georgia's fault laws apply in the event of an auto accident. Under these laws, a driver at fault for causing a car crash is responsible for the injuries that result. It is, however, the burden of the injured victim to show that the driver was responsible for the crash.
The victim of a Lawrenceville auto accident must show:
- That the other driver owed a duty of care. All drivers have a duty to obey driving rules and to behave in a reasonably prudent manner.
- That the duty was breached. This involves showing that the other driver broke a driver safety rule or was otherwise unreasonably careless.
- That the breach was a direct cause of the resulting accident. When a driver breaches a duty, he is said to be negligent. He is legally liable for damages if his negligence causes a crash.
- That damages occurred from the accident. With the help of a Lawrenceville Auto Accident Attorney, you can prove that you suffered injury and deserve compensation.
Many different types of evidence can be used to prove your claim. The sooner you contact a Lawrenceville Car Accident Lawyer, the sooner you can work on gathering the proof you need to hold the other driver accountable for your incident.

Compensation After a Car Accident
When you successfully prove your case, you should be entitled to compensation for your medical costs, lost income/wages, pain and suffering damages, and compensation for emotional distress. The monetary damages you receive should cover not just bills and losses incurred at the time of the claim but also any future expenses or losses that you expect to incur.
If the Lawrenceville auto accident was a fatal crash, then the driver responsible for the crash does not escape liability because he or she killed the victim. Georgia law allows for surviving family members of the deceased to make a wrongful death claim for damages including loss of companionship. A Lawrenceville Car Accident Attorney can help family members make a wrongful death claim.
