Georgia Catastrophic Injuries

Injuries are considered catastrophic when they force a substantial or permanent change in a person’s ability to live life, whether mentally or physically, and often result extensive medical care.

Common catastrophic injuries include:

  • Brain trauma
  • Neurological injuries
  • Paralysis
  • Burn injuries
  • Disfigurement
  • Amputations
  • Hearing & vision loss

Whether these injuries happen at a hospital, under the care of a medical provider, in a motor vehicle accident, or in any other way, they must be answered for by the reckless and negligent parties.

How long do I have to file a claim for a serious injury in Northern Georgia?

In Northern Georgia, the statute of limitations for filing a claim related to a serious injury is typically two years from the date of the accident. However, there are exceptions that can affect this timeline, such as if the injured party is a minor or if the injury was not immediately apparent. It’s crucial to act quickly and consult with a legal professional to ensure you meet all deadlines and preserve your right to seek compensation.

Can I still pursue a claim if I was partially at fault for the accident?

Yes, you can still pursue a claim even if you were partially at fault, thanks to Georgia's modified comparative negligence rule. This law allows you to recover damages as long as you are not more than 50% responsible for the accident. However, your compensation may be reduced by your percentage of fault. At The Dickinson Law Firm, we meticulously analyze every aspect of your case in an effort to minimize your liability and maximize your potential recovery.

What is the role of expert witnesses in a catastrophic injury case?

Expert witnesses play a critical role in catastrophic injury cases by providing specialized knowledge that can substantiate your claims. They may include medical professionals, accident reconstructionists, or economic experts who can testify about the injuries' impact on your life and future earning capacity. At The Dickinson Law Firm, we collaborate with top experts to ensure that your case is supported by credible and compelling evidence.
