Do You Have a Personal Injury Claim in Albany?

Many different types of accidents can support claims for financial compensation. In most (but not all) cases, claims for compensation are based on the law of “negligence.” If you were injured due to someone else’s negligence, then you are entitled to financial compensation under Georgia law. This is true in cases involving:

• Car Accidents – In car accidents, common forms of negligence include speeding, merging or turning without looking, distracted driving, drunk driving, and driving while fatigued. In most cases, victims will be able to recover financial compensation from the at-fault driver’s insurance company when a claim is pursued with the help of an Albany personal injury lawyer.
• Truck Accidents – Truck accidents can result from many forms of negligence as well. In addition to truck driver negligence (including driving errors and drinking, texting, using drugs, or falling asleep behind the wheel), this includes negligence on the part of trucking companies, shipping companies, and other businesses that put profits before roadway safety.
• Medical Malpractice – A doctor, nurse or health care facility commits medical malpractice any time it provides diagnostic or treatment services that fall below the accepted standard of care. Common examples include misdiagnoses, prescription errors and surgical mistakes.
• Slip and Fall Accidents – Property owners and tenants in Georgia have a legal obligation to avoid (or promptly remedy) hazardous property conditions that present serious injury risks. If you slipped and fell at a business, government building, public space or residence, you may be entitled to recover your losses.

The one major exception to the law of negligence governing personal injury claims is the law of “strict liability” that applies in cases involving product defects. If you, your spouse or child, or your aging parent was injured by a product defect, then your family may be entitled to financial compensation without proof of fault.
