Do You Have a Columbus Case That Our Crash Attorney Can Help With?

Our car accident lawyer in Columbus, GA, can help you file a personal injury claim or lawsuit against the at-fault party if your case meets the following criteria:

Someone Else’s Negligence Caused Your Car Crash

In order to receive compensation, you need to show that your injuries could have been prevented if the liable party had behaved in a lawful, cautious manner. Examples of negligence include the following:

  • A driver fails to signal before making a turn.
  • A driver decides to get behind the wheel after a night of drinking.
  • An auto part manufacturer does not recall a product that they know may be dangerous.
  • A local government allows hazardous debris to remain in the roadway.

You Meet Georgia’s Car Accident Statute of Limitations

Under O.C.G.A. § 9-3-33, state law gives you two years to begin a personal injury case. Only cases filed within this deadline are considered valid in Georgia. Those filed after the deadline will more than likely be rejected by the court.

You Have Enough Evidence to Prove Your Columbus Accident Injury Case

In most cases, it is not enough to simply claim that someone else’s negligence caused a crash. You need to have supporting evidence from sources like witnesses, video footage, and police reports in order to have a successful case.

Attorney Dwayne L. Brown has 30 years of experience with building persuasive case files for personal injury clients like yours. Call the Law Office of Dwayne L. Brown today so we can assess your case confidentially and at no cost.

What Is Your Columbus Car Accident Case Worth?

The answer to this question is different for every single client. As our case results show, our legal team has recovered hundreds of thousands and, in some cases, millions of dollars for past car accident clients. One of the first things we do for our clients is to figure out how much money they need so we can fight relentlessly for that amount.

Your accident has affected your life in many different ways: physically, emotionally, and financially. Our car accident attorney in Columbus, GA, can figure out what your case is worth by:

Categorizing Your Car Accident Damages

Every loss and unnecessary injury you suffered must be placed in one of the accepted categories of compensable damages. Common examples of these damages include the following:

  • Medical expenses
  • Property damage or loss
  • Loss of income
  • Loss of earning capacity
  • Pain and suffering
  • Disability
  • Reduced quality of life
  • Disfigurement or scarring

Collecting Evidence of Your Car Crash Injuries

The insurer will not pay you damages unless and until we connect your suffering to their client’s negligent behavior. Some of the materials we can use to prove this fact are:

  • Testimony from your relatives about how your health and life changed after the accident
  • Testimony and medical records from your doctor that indicate your injuries happened in a traffic accident
  • A paper trail—which includes things like medical bills, car repair bills, and paystubs—that shows how much money you lost or may lose in the future

Fighting Back if the Car Accident Insurer Objects

Insurance companies typically want to end cases like yours as soon as possible while paying as little as possible. Some even go so far as to deny or undervalue a legitimate accident claim like yours.

The Columbus car accident injury lawyer at our firm knows what tactics the insurer may try and is not intimidated. We fight as long and as hard as we have to on behalf of our clients.

How Auto Accidents Happen in Columbus

Columbus, Georgia, is home to many highways, like US 27 and US 80, as well as an interstate, I-185, where high-speed collisions can occur due to negligent drivers who:

  • Go faster than the posted speed limit
  • Insist on driving fast even in unsafe conditions, like during rush hour or a heavy downpour
  • Do not follow proper procedure when changing lanes
  • Tailgate, or follow other drivers more closely than they should

Car Accidents Also Happen on Columbus’s Quieter Streets

Not all crashes happen on busy roads. A devastating collision can just as easily take place on a side street close to home. Our car accident lawyer in Columbus can help if you were injured because someone:

  • Ignored a traffic light or a stop or yield sign
  • Backed out of a driveway or parking space without looking where they were going
  • Used their cell phone while driving—an illegal act under O.C.G.A. § 40-6-241

Not Every Columbus Car Crash Is a Driver’s Fault

While far too many motor vehicle accidents occur because of an individual’s negligence, there are also cases where the driver is not solely liable. If our personal injury attorney’s investigation reveals this to be the case for you, we can instead file a suit against:

  • An auto part manufacturer who did not take the necessary precautions to ensure their product would be safe and effective in all foreseeable circumstances
  • A Columbus government agency that failed to address potholes, debris, or any other road hazard in a timely manner
  • The employer of the at-fault driver who hit you, if the driver was on the clock and their behavior was influenced by an employer who, for example, did not make sure they were properly licensed
  • A mechanic or auto body shop that either should have noticed something wrong with your car and did not, or who did a poor repair job that, in turn, led to your inability to avoid the crash

Our Law Firm Also Takes Cases Involving Multiple Liable Parties

What do you do if more than one party behaved negligently in your case? For instance, what if a driver sped through an intersection where the stop sign had fallen down and was not visible?

The Law Office of Dwayne L. Brown can still help. We are not afraid of a tough case. Our car crash lawyer in Columbus can assign liability to each party and advocate vigorously for your family’s right to fair compensation.
