You have been severely injured by someone else. You need help. Now what?

November 18, 2011

If you have been in an accident, you will need legal advice and counsel as soon as possible to ensure you receive the outcome you deserve.  Here are some suggested steps to take to ensure you are headed in the right direction toward a fair and just recovery, both physically and financially.

First and foremost, ensuring that a client is receiving appropriate medical care is the number one goal.  Your health will affect you for your lifetime.  So, if you have suffered an injury, seek immediate medical attention and inform the medical professional of all of your symptoms. Keep in mind that you are not required to give a recorded statement to the insurance carrier of the liable party, nor do you have to sign any medical release for them.  You can rely on Mr. Josh Branch at Silver & Archibald to guide you through the process in a way that is most beneficial to you.

When your medical treatment is complete and you have regained your health, Mr. Branch will work on resolving your case.  Resolution of your case will occur either through a fair and just negotiation process and settlement, or trial.  If the insurance company refuses to negotiate fairly, Mr. Branch will file a law suit on your behalf.  This will allow a jury of peers to decide your case in court.

Time is of the essence in any personal injury case for many reasons. If appropriate medical conditions are not being diagnosed and are left untreated, the condition could worsen. In addition, Georgia has a statute of limitation on personal injury cases which bars recovery after the statute expires. In simple terms, this means that if you wait too long to resolve your case, recovery can never be obtained. Furthermore, the insurance company will begin their attempt to minimize the recovery on your case immediately after your injury occurs.  You need someone on your side with experience who will ensure you receive fair and just financial compensation.

Mr. Branch will do everything the law allows in order to make sure you are cared for as you would expect from family.
