Georgia Injury Lawyers Blog
If you’ve been in a car accident, you may be surprised at how quickly the insurance company has offered to settle your claim. Unfortunately, many people don’t understand that they are releasing the insurance company and the other party from any future claims if they accept the offer. Whether and when to settle your claim are critical questions with answers that can have a radical effect on your future.
Founded in 1992, the car accident attorneys at Slappey & Sadd have extensive experience in helping accident victims settle their claims. We fight for your rights so that you receive the compensation you deserve, instead of some lowball amount offered by the insurance company. If you would like some guidance with your car accident claim, call us at 1-888-474-9616 or send us an email to schedule a free consultation with one of our personal injury lawyers.
One of the most common reasons that people don’t seek out a lawyer is the fear of what it will cost. As a result, they wind up settling their personal injury claim with the insurance company for a fraction of what they may be entitled to, winding up with lost income and bills they can’t pay. The truth is that anyone can hire a personal injury lawyer, regardless of how much or how little money you have.
Many of us are on multiple social media platforms. It can be a fun way to keep up with friends and family, share our daily frustrations, or express our excitement about major life events. Unfortunately, social media can jeopardize your personal injury case if you aren’t careful. In this post, we’ll give you some tips to make sure your social media profiles don’t become the focus of your claim. 
Understandably, people can often be reluctant to contact a lawyer. Lawyers have a reputation for being expensive, and maybe you’re worried about suing another person. The problem is that if you wait too long, you could jeopardize your case and even lose your rights. It never hurts to contact a lawyer even if you’re not sure you need one – an experienced personal injury attorney can help you understand your options. 
For most of us, road construction is a major headache, causing delays in our daily commutes. Unfortunately, we rarely think about the hazards that construction workers face in simply doing their jobs. A simple accident caused by an absent-minded driver can result in serious injury and even death. 
Believe it or not, it’s that time of year when kids return to school. This means more traffic during rush hour and school buses traveling our roads. While it can be an exciting time of year, it’s important to recognize the potential dangers.

No one plans to be in a car accident. The experience can be overwhelming even if you’re not injured. In many cases, people think everything will work out ok, only to discover months later that the consequences were much more serious than they initially thought. Unfortunately, there are mistakes that you can make early on that can make your case much more difficult to prove. 
At Slappey & Sadd, we’re committed to helping accident victims get the compensation they need to rebuild their lives. We also believe that education is important, and we want to help Georgians avoid the errors that can undermine an otherwise valid claim. We covered a few of these mistakes in our prior post, and we’ll continue that discussion here.
