Our lawyers from Buckhead Law Saxton Accident Injury Lawyers, P.C. work daily with personal injury claims and lawsuits. We know how to put a fair settlement range on these cases by identifying the recoverable damages and valuing them. This proves key to ensuring our clients do not settle for less than they deserve when the insurance company makes an offer.

The first offer rarely comes close to enough to pay for their medical care, future care needs, lost income, and intangible losses. Instead, we need to counteroffer or consider other options for securing the compensation our clients need and deserve.

The compensation in a personal injury case reflects the expenses and losses incurred due to the incident and related injuries.

While the exact recoverable damages differ from case to case, they generally include:

Whether or not we file a lawsuit, most cases settle without going to trial. Negotiated settlements are very common in personal injury cases. For this reason, we do not approach the insurer until we have a good idea of the estimated fair settlement range of the case. We must understand the client’s losses and expenses before we know if an offer will meet their needs and compensate them justly.

Once we know what a fair settlement may look like, we can approach the at-fault party’s insurance provider and demand a fair payout. They usually reject and counteroffer. This may lead to back-and-forth negotiations and eventually a settlement. This may continue regardless of whether our team files a lawsuit in the case.

We often speak with clients who do not want to file a lawsuit in their personal injury case. However, it may prove necessary in some situations. Our attorneys handle the entire process of litigation: preparing the complaint, filing it, and navigating the trial process on your behalf. We can provide regular updates and ensure you know what to expect at every step.

Most lawsuits never go to trial, however. Instead, we often negotiate settlements with liable parties and their insurers.

This could occur at any point in the legal process, which includes:

We know when a lawsuit may prove necessary in your case and can offer advice and guidance about whether we believe you should consider legal action.
