Carla RobinsonNo matter how straightforward you think your case may be, the insurance company and the other party will require strict proof that you are entitled to compensation. As a result, non-attorneys wind up settling their claims for far less than they are worth. Experienced and knowledgeable Atlanta personal injury attorneys help people get the compensation they deserve so that they can make a full recovery from their accident.
Under basic legal principles, you are entitled to be made whole if you have been injured as a result of someone else’s actions. To put it another way, you are entitled to be compensated for your losses. In legal jargon, the losses you suffer are referred to as your “damages.” As a result, when you pursue a personal injury claim, you are typically seeking “compensatory damages” – a monetary amount that is intended to pay you for your losses. Compensatory damages include both economic and non-economic losses.
Generally speaking, economic losses are those losses that represent a specific dollar amount. They are easily identified because they can be clearly documented. Economic losses in a personal injury typically consist of the following:
This is not an exhaustive list. One of the advantages of working with our Atlanta personal injury attorneys is that they can help you compile and document all of your losses suffered as a result of your accident.
If you’ve been injured through someone else’s fault, you are not limited to seeking compensation only for your economic losses. You are also entitled to seek compensation for your pain and suffering – the mental anguish and physical discomfort you experience as a result of your injury. Although pain and suffering are subjective in nature, any accident victim will tell you that they are very real. Georgia law expressly recognizes your right to pursue compensation for your pain and suffering.
Unfortunately, it can be quite difficult to assign value to your pain and suffering. Thankfully, Georgia does not establish a cap on damages for pain and suffering, allowing victims and their attorneys to seek as much as needed to recover and offer justice At the same time, there is no established formula to provide guidance. Some of the factors that can be used to assign a value to your claim are as follows:
The experienced Atlanta personal injury attorneys at Gilormo Injury Law can help you determine the value of your pain and suffering and help you get the compensation you deserve.
In order to pursue a claim for compensation, you need to be able to demonstrate that the other party was responsible for your accident. In other words, you have to eventually prove that they were at fault. When it comes to personal injury cases, most claims fall into the following categories when it comes to proving fault:
With these categories of fault in mind, our Atlanta personal injury attorneys then have to prove the following in order to prove your case:
This may all seem very straightforward, but it can be more complicated than it appears. Seemingly insignificant facts can make a huge difference in the outcome of your case. If you’ve been injured and believe someone else is at fault, our experienced Atlanta personal injury attorneys will know how to prove your claim and how the law will apply to your case.
While compensatory damages are intended to compensate you for your losses, punitive damages are intended to punish the at-fault party for egregious behavior. Many of our clients are understandably angry and frustrated by their injury and therefore want to pursue punitive damages. Unfortunately, as our Atlanta personal injury attorneys can attest, punitive damages are available in only a limited number of cases.
Georgia law allows for punitive damages in cases where the at-fault party’s actions were the product of willful misconduct or such recklessness that they indicate a complete disregard for the safety of others. For example, punitive damages may be available in a case where the other party intentionally ran a red light in an area crowded with pedestrians while under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
Punitive damages also require a higher standard of proof. In a typical personal injury claim, you only need to prove that the other party was negligent by a “preponderance of the evidence.” This means that the evidence must merely prove that the other party was more likely negligent than not. In a punitive damages claim, you must prove your case by “clear and convincing” evidence.
