Reasons Why Accident Victims Do Not Hire An Atlanta Personal Injury Attorney | Fast HelpThere are thousands of accidents that take place throughout Atlanta that never reach a courtroom. Some accident victims believe they can either handle their claim or are afraid to move forward suing another party, especially if they have a relationship with them.

Regardless of how knowledgeable you are over personal injury claims or the person/party that caused you harm, filing a claim for compensation may be necessary depending on the circumstances.

Reasons Why Accident Victims Don’t Hire Personal Injury Attorneys

Despite the physical and financial damages associated with accident injuries, too many victims do not attempt to hire a personal injury attorney to follow through with a lawsuit. If you are injured as a result of another party’s negligence, don’t allow yourself to fall into one of the following scenarios:

Not knowing How To Respond

Many accident victims are not aware of their legal rights as they apply to accident injuries and therefore, do not seek counsel. If you are injured in an accident, contact the professionals at Fast Help – we offer free consultations so you can learn more about your case, understand your legal rights, and make an educated decision on how to best move forward.

Believing You Can Manage Your Own Personal Injury Case

Too many accident victims fall into the trap of either believing that they can handle their claim or trust an insurance adjuster who says they can settle their claim for them. Although an insurance adjuster may come off as friendly and polite, they do work on your behalf and represent providers who purposely try to offer as little compensation as possible.

As for handling your case, the outcome of your settlement balances on the ability to understand how to navigate through the court system, collect meaningful evidence, and present such evidence to a judge. Trying to do all of this without experience will likely harm your case and will probably not provide the type of compensation you are looking for or deserve.

The Victim Has A Personal Relationship With The Negligent Party

When accidents are caused by a personal friend or relative, many people avoid filing a claim regardless of their injuries, medical expenses, or lost wages. What most accident victims don’t realize is that the majority of personal injury claims never go to trial.

In fact, the majority of accident claims are settled before a summons is even issued. And, the money associated with settlements don’t come out of the negligent party’s accounts, they are addressed by their insurance provider.
