In order to pursue a personal injury settlement there must be another party responsible for the accident who is able to personally, or more commonly through insurance, provide compensation. You must also have suffered damages in the form of a physical injury or emotional trauma.

At Mighty, we believe that mental health is as important as physical health, and want to highlight some of the terrible statistics we’ve found that prove our point.

If you’re hurt in an accident, the most obvious course of action is to get medical treatment. But getting treatment after an accident has implications that go beyond just your physical health. People get pressure from their attorney to get treatment, even though their attorney may not disclose that often medical treatment from an accident isn’t covered by health insurance, and your legal settlement may depend on the treatment you get.

FAQ
What should I do if I get in a truck accident in Georgia?
If you're involved in a truck accident, begin by calling 911 and seeking any necessary medical care. If you're able, gather as much information from the accident scene as possible. Request an official police report from law enforcement, take detailed photographs, and keep records of all medical documents. Your Georgia truck accident attorney will likely use this evidence to build your case.
Is Georgia a no-fault state for truck accidents?
Georgia is an at-fault state, meaning that the truck driver responsible for the trucking accident is on the hook for all of the expenses at play. If the trucking company is held responsible, you can seek full coverage for damages incurred, including medical expenses, property damage, lost wages, and more. That is, assuming the defendant has sufficient insurance coverage to pay.
What is the average settlement for a truck accident in Georgia?
Unfortunately, there is no recorded average for Georgia settlement cases. Each truck accident is unique, and settlement amounts tend to vary greatly. Cases with relatively minor truck accident injuries may end up with payouts in the tens of thousands. In contrast, cases that involve more serious truck accident injuries can result in settlements in the millions.
When you work with Mighty Law's truck accident team, an important part of the process will involve valuing the impact of the truck accident. We'll search for similar trucking accidents to determine your projected compensation and focus our efforts on helping you receive the outcome you deserve.
Is hiring a truck accident lawyer in Georgia necessary?
After a truck accident, legal representation is probably the last thing on your mind. That's perfectly reasonable and normal. You aren't required to seek legal aid following a commercial truck accident in the state of Georgia, although it may be worth considering that large trucking companies typically operate with top-tier legal representation.
Hiring your own lawyer may help you avoid lowball settlement offers and empower you to seek fair compensation. Mighty Law is unique because if you're not sure, you can try our service for 60 days with no commitment. Even past that, you only pay if you win your case.
How much does a truck accident lawyer in Georgia cost through Mighty Law?
Because we work on a contingency basis, you'll only pay Mighty Law if you win. While traditional personal injury firms take anywhere from 33-36% of the gross settlement, we charge fees that are 10% lower.
What does the process of working with Mighty Law look like?
After you fill out our online form, we'll start with an initial screening to learn the facts of your truck accident case. Then, we'll assign you a case manager who helps collect evidence and documents. Lastly, we'll file a demand letter with the insurance company and begin negotiations.
Mighty Law stays transparent through the entire process—no quotas, quid-pro-quos, or unreasonable delays on our end. If that doesn't work, Mighty Law will file suit and fight the defendant in a court of law.
How long will it take to investigate a truck accident claim in GA?
The average truck accident claim takes 1.5 years to resolve, but each truck accident case varies. Georgia has a two-year statute of limitations for filing a motor vehicle accident claim. With Mighty Law's no-strings-attached policy, we'll file in 60 days guaranteed, or you will walk away without owing us a cent.
Who pays for medical bills in a truck accident in GA?
You pay for your medical bills immediately following a trucking accident. Once the at-fault truck driver is determined at the end of the case, they will be responsible for medical expenses, property damage, pain and suffering, and other costs of the motor vehicle accident.
