A Car Wreck Can Change Your Life

Most people don’t understand how a car accident can upend your life until they experience one firsthand. The emotional and physical pain following an accident can be devastating and taxing. There are endless logistics to figure out, and your physical pain might be affecting your daily life. Recovery might feel like a long way off. On top of that stress, the financial burden of an accident and any accompanying medical bills can be daunting and demoralizing.

To minimize your frustration and forge a path forward, you need a law firm that cares, and one that can add real financial value to your case. You need Montlick.

Nationwide Injury Lawyers for Car Wreck Victims

We Protect You From Powerful Insurance Companies

The insurance companies have lawyers. Why wouldn’t you? 

Some people assume that they can deal directly with the insurance companies themselves and don’t need to get a lawyer involved. But remember, an insurance adjuster’s job is to protect the interest of the insurance company, and they do this by paying you as little as possible or even nothing at all.

The insurance company will have a team of investigators, experts and attorneys at their disposal whose goals are to find a justification for denying an injury victim’s claim or to pay the absolute minimum. When a car accident victim attempts to negotiate with insurance company adjusters without legal representation, their personal injury claim can be undermined by damaging statements and strategic mistakes.

When you hire us, we protect your rights and make sure your are in the best position to receive the money you need and deserve after your accident.

What Does Negligence Look Like in a Car Crash?

The legal basis for pursuing compensation in a car accident is generally negligence, which in this context essentially refers to the failure of a driver or another party to exercise ordinary care to prevent foreseeable injury to others in car accidents. The most common forms of unsafe driving that often constitute negligent driving include:

  • DUI/DWI
  • Speeding
  • Tailgating
  • Distracted driving (which includes texting while driving, talking on a cell phone, changing the radio station, using the car’s GPS or other electronics, eating, fixing one’s hair, etc).

The Impact of a Crash

The force of impact in any motor vehicle collision can cause severe injury or permanent disability. Although some injuries can eventually heal, traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), spinal cord injuries and other forms of injury may result in long-term cognitive and physical impairment. Some of the type of injuries which may be experienced by a driver, passenger, motorcyclists, bicyclist or pedestrian in cases that we handle include:

  • Joint injuries of the shoulder or knee
  • Whiplash
  • Head and neck injuries
  • Disfigurement
  • Internal organ damage
  • Decapitation
  • Amputation
  • Spinal cord injuries (paraplegia or quadriplegia)
  • Brain damage impacting cognitive functioning
  • Dislocations and hyper-extensions
  • Wrongful death

If you or a loved one is injured in an auto collision, there are strict deadlines that must be met to avoid compromising your right to financial recovery. The statute of limitations prohibits bringing a legal case after a certain period of time following one’s accident or injury. Shorter time deadlines will apply if you are suing a public entity such as for a dangerous roadway, and their may be reporting requirements and other deadlines in insurance policies. There could be exceptions that affect your outcome. In all instances, it is critical to contact a lawyer as soon as possible to find out your legal options.

Our powerhouse firm has been representing those injured in motor vehicle collisions and recovering valuable compensation for our clients for over 40 years. While the precise value of your auto collision claim and the types of available damages will depend on the specific facts and circumstances of you case, some of the types of damages that might be available include:

  • Cost of medical bills and hospitalization
  • Vehicle damage
  • Pain and suffering
  • Lost income and impaired future earning ability
  • Loss of consortium
  • Costs of burial (wrongful death)
  • Punitive damages
Your Questions Answered

Car Accident Legal FAQs

What if I’m partially at fault for my accident?
Sometimes, it takes multiple people’s mistakes for an accident to occur. If you are partially at fault for the accident that caused your injuries, Georgia follows a modified comparative negligence rule. GA Code § 51-12-33 states that if the plaintiff is found partially at fault for their injury, their compensation will be reduced by their percentage of fault. For example, if you are awarded $100,000 in damages but are found to be approximately 20% responsible for the accident, you will be awarded $80,000 in the end. If you are found to be 50% or more responsible for the accident, you cannot recover any damages in the state of Georgia.

How Much Is My Case Worth?
While every case is complex and compensation is based on many factors, the most important is generally the severity and long-term impact of a victim’s physical injuries. Minor injuries will generally pay less compared to injuries that cause a short-term disability or permanent. If your injury is catastrophic or will cause long-term problems, then the settlement will be more significant, however, this is also determined by the amount of insurance available and/or defendant assets.

What Are The Most Dangerous Intersections in Fort Lauderdale?
If the accident wasn't my fault, do I need a lawyer?

In our experience, the worst thing a person injured after an auto accident that was not their fault can do is try to negotiate on their own with the insurance companies involved. The insurance companies have lawyers fighting for their best interest, and so should you. Insurance companies are experts at fighting these kinds of cases and may use the information you provide to justify denying your claim or minimize the amount of your recovery. You should never sign anything or talk to representatives from the insurance company until you have obtained advice from an experienced car accident attorney who can help you level the playing field.
