Unlike insurance companies, Bettis Musgrove is a true advocate on your side. Dedicated to advocating for your best interest every step along the way, our Cumming personal injury attorneys will fight for the maximum amount of compensation you deserve. Conversely, insurance companies are usually looking out for what will save their company money, not what you need to optimally recover from your injuries.
-
One of the many benefits of hiring a personal injury attorney is that the attorney can handle all future correspondence with insurance adjusters. People usually think it’s harmless to talk with insurance adjusters after their accident. However, these companies often use what you say against you to avoid having to pay you. If you must speak with an insurance adjuster, it’s important to avoid admitting fault, offering your opinions, or saying anything that may be used to undermine your claim.
-
All states have their own statute of limitations for personal injury claims, or a set length of time that injured individuals must file a claim against an at-fault party.
According to the Georgia Code section 9-3-33, injury victims have two years to file a personal injury claim before the statute of limitations runs out. This means that if you fail to file your claim within these two years, you will most likely lose your right to recover compensation, no matter how severe your injuries.
However, exceptions to this rule may apply, which can extend or shorten the amount of time you need to file a claim. For example, minors who suffer injuries have two years from the date of their 18th birthday before the statute of limitations runs out.
Other circumstances can change the amount of time you have to file, so it’s best to contact our Cumming personal injury attorneys as soon as possible to discuss your case.
