When to File a Whiplash Injury Claim or Lawsuit

Based on the Official Code of Georgia Annotated (O.C.G.A.) § 9-3-33, you may have up to two years from the date of an accident in which you suffer a whiplash injury to seek compensation from any responsible parties. If this window closes, you may be responsible for your injury-related losses.

Meet with a whiplash injury lawyer in Newnan if you’re unsure about whether to file a claim or lawsuit. Your attorney may advise you to pursue compensation from a liable party’s insurance company. If insurance settlement negotiations are unsuccessful, your lawyer may bring your case to trial.

How Much Is a Whiplash Injury Case Worth?

Your whiplash injury attorney in Newnan wants you to receive compensation for your economic and non-economic damages. Reasons you could get compensatory damages from anyone liable for your whiplash injuries include:

• • Medical bills
  • Lost wages
  • Diminished earning capacity
  • Loss of enjoyment of life
  • Pain and suffering

Your lawyer can use witness statements, police reports, video footage of your accident, and other evidence to strengthen your case for damages. Their body of proof can help your lawyer prove negligence.

The Role of Negligence in a Whiplash Injury Case

Newnan whiplash injury lawyers want to show a judge or jury that a liable party committed a careless or reckless act, which led to your injuries and damages. As such, they will focus their argument on negligence.

According to O.C.G.A. § 51-12-33, your percentage of blame for your whiplash injuries can determine if you receive damages. If you’re 1-49% at fault, the court can reduce your damages based on your percentage of fault. Or, if you’re 50% or more liable, you may not get damages.
