    Carrollton Car Accident Lawyer

    Motor vehicle accidents are stressful no matter how bad they appear. An element of shock is usually the first feeling after a car accident. Add to that shock and adrenaline the fact that you have to deal with law enforcement personnel on the scene, medical providers on the scene, and work/family commitments and the entire situation can seem unbearable.

    While many people seek medical care following a car wreck (which we recommend), others find themselves a couple of days later in severe pain. The adrenaline that was once coursing through the body is no longer there. Now the accident injury victim is left to deal with the aftermath alone. In these instances, there a number of steps that an individual needs to take beginning with seeking medical attention and then contacting a Carrollton car accident lawyer. With the help of an experienced Georgia injury attorney, an injured individual can seek to recover damages and hold the negligent party responsible for their actions.

    Steps to Take Following An Accident in Georgia

    Unfortunately, the aftermath is not any easier. There will be additional stress in dealing with insurance companies. While not always the case, many times insurance companies have their best business interests at the top of their radar. Speaking with adjusters can be extremely confusing to a car wreck victim. The Carrollton car wreck attorneys of The Parian Lawyers will help you deal with those stressors and assist you in going through the complex process of getting the financial compensation and medical treatment that you deserve.

    Common Auto Collision Injuries

    Auto accidents are responsible for a wide range of injuries. Some of the more common injuries associated with car accidents are:

    • Back Injuries
    • Neck Injuries (Whiplash)
    • Burns
    • Lacerations and Scars
    • Severe Bruising
    • Brain Injuries
    • Mental Anguish
    • Disability
    • Permanent Disfigurement

    What is the Role of Insurance in a Car Wreck Claim?

    Over 2.35 million people are injured every year in car accidents. In fact, motor vehicle collisions are the single greatest annual cause of death in the United States.

    When a car crash is not the fault of the injured driver, many believe they can simply make their claim and the billion dollar insurance company will pay fair compensation for the damages and injuries. Unfortunately, the claim process is not that simple.

    Car accident claims in Carrollton usually set into motion a long investigation by the at-fault party’s insurance company to determine if the particular cause of the accident is covered under the policy. Insurance companies are just that, companies. In fact, many of the largest are billion-dollar companies. Insurance companies make a profit when the money they receive in premiums exceeds the money they pay out in claims, therefore making it important those injured consult with a Carrollton auto accident lawyer experienced in Georgia law.

    Are Medical Expenses Covered in a Car Crash Claim?

    There are a number of possible sources to pay for medical costs. If someone does not have medical insurance, the Carrollton car accident attorneys of The Parian Lawyers work with a number of different medical care funding companies that can see to it that potential clients are seen by a trusted physician.

    Many car insurance policies have medical payments coverage in some amount. That amount is usually only a fraction of the total amount of medical expenses. A thorough review of someone’s insurance policy and that of the at-fault party’s insurance policy will need to be conducted to find any medical payments coverage available.

    Car accident injuries come in many different levels of severity. Carrollton motor vehicle accident attorneys are aware of and know how to link many of those injuries to the car crash the injured party was involved in.

    Filing An Accident Claim

    Anyone who suffers an injury in a car accident in Georgia may be able to pursue financial compensation. This includes passengers, drivers, and children.

    • Passengers can fight for compensation, even if they were riding in the responsible party’s vehicle.
    • Drivers can easily suffer serious injuries in a crash. If another driver is responsible for the collision, the injured party may be eligible to pursue compensation.
    • Children may not be old enough to file a lawsuit; however, a child’s parent can file a claim on their behalf.

    In order to recover damages for sustained injuries, an individual must be able to demonstrate that someone else is at fault for the accident. This is called liability. Simply put, the liable party is responsible for any injuries or property damage suffered by both parties in the accident. The liable party isn’t always another driver – it could be the city (poor road construction) or the auto manufacturer (defective auto parts).

    How Much Money is My Car Accident Lawsuit Worth?

    While not always the first question asked, the question about how much a car accident case is worth is always on a client’s mind. The Carrollton auto accident attorneys at The Parian Lawyers, LLC have years of experience in evaluating the worth of car wreck cases. The simple answer is that each car wreck case is different. Certain factors weigh heavily on the ultimate financial recovery in auto accident cases. Those factors include a number of medical bills, the degree of negligence or carelessness of the at-fault driver, and the surrounding factors involving the accident.

    Personal injury cases usually build in value over time. Medical diagnoses can often take months to get correct. It is not until the actual range of injuries are diagnosed that a baseline potential value of a case can be provided.

    What is the Role of a Carrollton Car Accident Attorney?
