How Do I Get Money From Being in A Car Accident?
Liable: A person is responsible for what happened.
Proving Negligence: Showing that a person failed to be careful when doing something.
These two phrases are the key to getting you the payment you deserve. As Macon personal injury attorneys, we need to take 4 legal steps to prove you were wronged :
1. When someone gets behind the wheel of any vehicle, they are legally required to follow all traffic laws and carefully and competently drive. This is known as the “legal duty of care”.
2. But people can be irresponsible… they can forget how dangerous cars can be and act recklessly. For example, ignoring the road to stare at the rows and rows of blossoming cherry trees would be reckless driving. This is known as “failure to uphold that duty”
3. The law then states that a person is only liable (responsible) for your injury if their careless ways directly caused your injury. In other words, if they had been responsible, you never would have been injured! This is known as the “cause of your damages”
4. Finally, you need to have suffered in a way that can be proven. This is known as “measurable damages”.

When Macon Happens, You’re Better Off With The Wilson PC
Does My Injury Really Count As a Measurable Damage?
When people think about measurable damages, usually they think of Mercer football’s loss to Auburn last year…
But in personal injury terms, people think about a lingering neck injury from the whiplash of the crash. Another common example is your vehicle… obviously, a total car has been damaged!
However, a lot of people don’t understand the extent of measurable damages in the eyes of the law. As a result, they don’t seek a personal injury attorney and leave money on the table that should be theirs.
In general, there are 2 categories of damages: physical and financial.
Physical Damages:
Head and Neck Injuries (Brain damage is deadly serious, but even whiplash can last for years)
Spinal Cord Injuries (Can cause permanent loss of sensation or paralysis if left unattended)
Fractures and Broken Bones (Sudden impact can toss drivers and passengers
Sprains and Tears (Less serious than a broken bone, but still covered by the law)
Joints and Soft Tissue Injuries (A car accident can leave you with the weak knees of a perpetually injured running back)
Internal Injuries (May not be obvious, so if you have ANY internal pain see a doctor immediately)
Burns and Scarring (Some accidents lead to disfigurement)
Emotional Damage (Trauma can linger and require therapy to achieve peace)
If you innocently suffer any physical damage from a car accident, insurers must compensate you for your medical bills, treatment, and future pain and suffering.
Financial Damages:
Property Damage (If they totaled your car or home, they need to pay to replace it)
Household Assistance (While you were injured you may have needed help performing basic daily tasks)
Lost Wages (Be paid for the income you would have taken home had you not been focusing on healing.
Future Wages (If you were injured to the point where you can never return to your job, insurers must pay for any wages you would have earned)
Transportation (If your vehicle is destroyed or in the shop, you can be compensated for your necessary travel)
Don’t let a car accident impact you and your family’s financial situation in any way. If you’re innocent and injured we’ll fight on your behalf.
Why Shouldn’t I Deal With Insurance Myself?
As The Allman Brothers Band says: “Famous last words”... cuz insurers are a tricky bunch.
On the one hand, they can rescue you from financial ruin. But on the other hand, the less they payout, the more profitable they are. In other words, they are motivated to compensate you as little as possible.
They have several strategies to accomplish this. If in casual, friendly conversation you are polite and downplay your injury, they will use that against your insurance claim. They will intentionally take as long as possible to “consider” your claim. As time wears you down, they hope that you’ll accept anything just to get it over and done with. They are able to get away with this for a simple reason: you are a normal person who doesn’t know the ins and outs of Macon and Georgia’s laws, and as a result, struggles to effectively advocate for their rights.
