Frequently Asked Questions
What types of personal injury cases does Arnold & Stafford, Attorneys at Law handle?
We handle a wide range of personal injury cases, including car and truck accidents, motorcycle accidents, slip-and-falls, pedestrian and bicycle accidents, workplace injuries, medical malpractice, dog bites, dangerous product claims, and nursing home negligence. If someone else’s negligence caused your injury, we want to hear your story.
How do I know if I have a valid personal injury claim?
Generally, a valid claim requires that someone owed you a duty of care, that they breached that duty, and that the breach directly caused your injury and resulting losses. The best way to find out if you have a case is to speak with one of our attorneys in a free initial consultation – there’s no obligation and no cost.
What compensation can I pursue in a personal injury case?
Depending on your situation, you may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, future treatment costs, lost wages, reduced earning capacity, pain and suffering, and loss of enjoyment of life. Every case is different, and we work to understand the full scope of your losses before determining what your claim is worth.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Georgia?
In most cases, Georgia law gives you two years from the date of your injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. Missing that deadline can permanently bar you from recovering compensation, so it’s important not to wait.
Will my case settle or go to trial?
Many personal injury cases resolve through settlement – but not all. Arnold & Stafford, Attorneys at Law prepares every case as though it will go to trial, and insurance companies take notice. That reputation for trial readiness often leads to stronger settlement offers than firms that rarely step into a courtroom.
What does it cost to hire Arnold & Stafford, Attorneys at Law for a personal injury case?
We work exclusively on a contingency fee basis, which means you pay nothing unless we win. There are no upfront costs and no fees unless we recover compensation on your behalf.
What should I do immediately after suffering a serious injury?
Seek medical attention first. Your health is the priority, and medical records are also critical evidence. Document everything you can: photographs, witness information, and a written account of what happened. Then contact an attorney before speaking with any insurance company, including your own.
Does it matter that the insurance company has already contacted me?
Yes, and it’s important to be cautious. Insurance adjusters are trained to gather information and resolve claims quickly, often before the full extent of your injuries is known. Speaking with an attorney before engaging with an insurer helps ensure you don’t inadvertently say something that reduces your claim.
