Available Damages in an Atlanta Personal Injury Case
When you've been injured due to someone else's negligence in Atlanta, you may be entitled to financial compensation to help you recover from the losses you've suffered. These damages generally fall into two categories: economic and non-economic damages.
Economic damages compensate you for the quantifiable financial losses you've incurred as a direct result of your injuries, such as:
- Medical expenses: Past and future medical bills, including hospitalization, surgery, doctor visits, physical therapy, medication, and medical equipment.
- Lost wages: Income lost due to your inability to work while recovering from your injuries.
- Lost earning capacity: If your injuries result in long-term or permanent disabilities that affect your ability to earn a living, you may be able to recover compensation for this loss of future income.
- Property damage: Repair or replacement costs for any property damaged in the accident, such as your vehicle.
Non-economic damages, on the other hand, are intended to compensate you for the intangible losses that are not as easily quantifiable, such as:
- Pain and suffering: Physical pain and discomfort caused by your injuries.
- Emotional distress: Mental anguish, anxiety, depression, and other psychological impacts resulting from the accident and your injuries.
- Loss of enjoyment of life: Compensation for the diminished ability to participate in and enjoy activities you previously enjoyed.
- Loss of consortium: This applies to the impact your injuries have on your relationship with your spouse, including loss of companionship, affection, and support.
The specific types and forms of compensation you can recover will depend on the circumstances of your case. After we carefully evaluate your situation, we can work to build a persuasive case to maximize your potential compensation.

Statute of Limitations for Personal Injury Cases in Georgia
It's crucial to act promptly after an injury. Georgia law sets a strict deadline, known as the statute of limitations, for filing personal injury lawsuits. In most cases, you have just two years from the date of the injury to file a claim. If you miss this deadline, you may lose your right to seek compensation.
We encourage you to contact us as soon as possible after an accident so we can begin protecting your rights and building a compelling case on your behalf.
