Types of Damages After a Car Accident

Damages after a car accident can be substantial in terms of physical injuries and financial losses. Thankfully, you can pursue compensation for these damages in a car accident claim in Georgia. Financial compensation cannot put many aspects of your life back together after a serious accident, but it can help with medical bills and other expenses.

Medical Expenses

After a serious accident, medical expenses can be one of the most significant damages in your car accident claim. Ambulance and emergency room fees are expensive, and you may be surprised at how quickly medical care expenses add up. Even routine follow-up care can strain virtually any budget.

You may also require medical care in the future. Predicted future medical expenses can be included in your award for damages, but you may have to hire an expert to provide an opinion on the amount of medical care you will need and an estimated cost.

Medical expenses include costs that you may not typically associate with medical care, including:

  • Physical or cognitive therapy
  • Medical devices such as heating pads, walkers, or wheelchairs
  • In-home services
  • Home accommodations for a new disability

Lost Wages

After a car accident, you may need to take time off from work to recover. Any time that you miss from work because of your accident should be documented so that you can file a claim for the wages that you would have earned if the accident had not occurred. You can also file a claim for future lost wages.

Damages for lost wages extend beyond simply missing days from work. They also apply to situations in which your entire career must change because of your accident. Factors such as a decrease in salary or an inability to continue a career will influence the amount of damages awarded for your Georgia car accident claim.

Property Damage

You can also recover for any damage to property after a car accident. In most cases, this will include your vehicle and any contents inside of your vehicle that were lost or damaged. They can also include property, such as buildings or other stationary objects, that were damaged in the accident.

General Damages

Pain and suffering is perhaps the most well-known general damage. It comprises a separate category of damages, but it is often associated with medical expenses. You can be compensated for the physical and mental anguish the injury caused. It is difficult to pinpoint exactly how much pain and suffering is worth, but your Georgia car accident lawyer can help you come up with an estimate that includes future pain and suffering.

Other general damages include losses that are difficult to place a monetary value on, including the following:

  • Loss of companionship
  • Loss of consortium
  • Physical disfigurement
  • Reduced quality of life

For example, if your loved one was involved an accident that left him in a vegetative state, you may be able to file a claim for the loss of the companionship, friendship, and love that your spouse or child would have provided to you if the accident had not occurred.

A Georgia personal injury attorney will be able to evaluate your case and explain which damages may be available to you based on your unique situation. Call the Kennesaw Car Accident Attorneys at 833 – LEGALGA for more information and a free consultation.

Georgia Law Regarding Suing a Truck Operator’s Insurance Company After an Accident

The front of a silver truck with it's bumper completely off next to the back end of a tractor trailer that appears to have hit the truck.

One morning, a mother drives her children to school in suburban Cobb County. It is a clear fall day in late October. The mother drops the kids off and heads home to do housework. On the way, an 80,000-pound tractor-trailer unexpectedly swerves into her lane and crashes into her car. The mother suffers severe injuries in the crash and needs immediate medical attention. An ambulance arrives at the scene and transfers her to a nearby trauma hospital. The mother suffers spinal injuries and facial fractures, requiring surgery. After four months in the hospital, she is released but still needs physical therapy, pain management, and psychological care.

In addition to tremendous physical and psychological suffering, the mother also has to deal with expensive medical bills. She is unable to care for her children and needs help managing their daily activities. She consults a lawyer, who determines that the driver lives in a low-income area and likely does not have the means to cover the mother’s bills. The trucking company that employed the driver is a small company and probably has similarly limited means. Therefore, the lawyer decides to sue the insurance company that insured the tractor-trailer.

Respondeat Superior

Georgia, as well as many other states, recognizes the legal theory of respondeat superior, which literally means, “let the master answer.”  Under this legal doctrine, an employer can be vicariously liable for the acts of an employee, provided that the employee is operating within the course and scope of his or her employment.  Vicarious liability of an employer permits holding the employer responsible for the negligence of an employee.  In such an instance, the employer would also be responsible for satisfying monetary damages caused by the employee’s negligence.

The legislative intent of respondeat superior is the belief that holding the employer responsible increases the victim’s chances of adequate compensation, because an employer tends to have more financial resources. Because the employer controls the employee, the employer should be responsible for the employee’s actions while working in the course of employment. Under this legal theory, the employee is considered an agent of the employer.

Insurance Company Liability

In addition to holding the trucking company liable for the negligence of the tractor-trailer driver, Georgia law permits someone injured in a trucking accident to directly sue the insurance company. The insurance contract between the trucking company and the insurance company was intended to remunerate those who might be injured in accident with the truck. Trucks, due to their large size, are more likely to cause significant injury when involved in an accident with a member of the public. Therefore, in the example above, the mother would sue the driver, the trucking company, and the insurance company by naming them as defendants in a negligence suit.

If you’ve been injured in a tractor-trailer wreck in Georgia, you need a lawyer who is familiar with Georgia personal injury law. Contact Joel Williams, a Cobb County personal injury attorney.

Stolen SUV Crashes and Ends Up on a Rooftop in Atlanta

A person wearing a long sleeved dark brown shirt, punching through the window of a black car appearing to have the intent to steal the car.

A teenager stole a sport utility vehicle (SUV) and was then involved in a single car accident in southwest Atlanta, careening from the road and through several yards before going airborne and landing on top of a house. The driver was seriously hurt in the accident, but no one else was injured.

Teen Steals Car and Crashes in Atlanta

The strange sequence of events that led to the SUV being pulled from a rooftop in the 2400 block of Maxwell Drive began early in the morning of Tuesday, October 18, 2016. The owner of the SUV, Ebony Thomas-Knight, reported that her car was stolen from a gas station nearby. The teenaged boy who stole the vehicle, still unnamed, drove it recklessly for nearly a mile through southwestern Atlanta before losing control and careening down Maxwell Drive just before 7 am. The SUV crashed through a fence, knocked down power lines, hit a tree, and then went airborne, landing on a house and throwing the teen aged driver from the vehicle. At a time when school buses often drive through the area to pick up kids and bring them to school, it was a miracle that no one else was hurt.

The young man who stole the vehicle, however, was not so fortunate. He was rushed to Grady Memorial Hospital, where he later died of his injuries.

The person living in the house that was hit by the SUV was not home at the time of the accident.

Stolen Vehicles Pose Legal Complications

Whenever you get injured by someone driving a stolen vehicle, the legal aspects of getting the compensation that you need and deserve become complex. Depending on the specific facts of the case, the person ultimately responsible could be the car thief, for stealing the car, the owner of the vehicle, for leaving it unattended, or even a third party, if they assumed responsibility of keeping the car safe.  In this case, police are still investigating exactly how the car thief obtained the vehicle.

Cobb County Car Accident Attorney Joel Williams

Single vehicle wrecks can be caused by a myriad of things such as driver error, adverse weather conditions, road defects, or mechanical defects.  When you have been the victim of one of the unfortunate circumstances – if you were hurt in the crash or suffered significant property damage, like the owner of the house that this SUV ended up landing on – then you should seek out legal assistance to ensure that your interests are protected and you get compensated for your losses.

Former Football Star Killed in Car Accident

A 3D rendering of a blue transparent human head from the side showing the brain and spinal cord in blue but the front lobe of the of the brain is a bright red.

A football star was killed and his son was seriously injured in a car accident in Oklahoma on Saturday, October 15, 2016. The accident was a head-on collision that involved two large vehicles.

Car Accident Leaves One Dead, Two Critically Injured

The accident occurred midday Saturday on Oklahoma Route 88 in Rogers County, Oklahoma, just northeast of Tulsa. 50-year-old Dennis Byrd, a former standout defensive end for the New York Jets and the University of Tulsa, was driving a Hummer H2 with his 12-year-old son in the passenger’s seat. A 2000 Ford Explorer, driven by a 17-year-old driver, was going the other way, in the northbound lanes, when it veered into the southbound lane, right into Byrd’s path.

Byrd was pronounced dead at the scene of the car crash. His son and the teen aged driver of the other car were brought to Saint Francis Hospital in Tulsa, both in critical condition.

Driver a Famous Football Star

Dennis Byrd was a local and national hero for his skills and determination both on and off the gridiron.

Born just outside of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, Byrd made a name for himself in high school as an exceptional defensive lineman, earning All-State honors. He went to college at the University of Tulsa, where he was good enough to make it to the NFL, getting drafted in the second round by the New York Jets. Over the course of his four year career in professional football, Byrd established himself as a formidable defensive lineman.

Byrd’s professional football career, however, was cut short when he was paralyzed on the field during a game against the Kansas City Chiefs, trying to sack the quarterback. He broke the fifth cervical vertebrae in his back, a terrible spinal injury that doctors said would leave him unable to walk. Despite the prognosis, Byrd fought through his injury and physical therapy, and was walking again within weeks.

Teammates Urge Brain Donation

Hearing of Byrd’s death, teammates of the former football star have come forward to urge Byrd’s wife to donate Byrd’s brain to the clinic at Boston University that studies chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), a brain disease that has been repeatedly linked to head and brain injuries of football players. CTE has recently come into the public eye after numerous football players have suffered the ill effects of the disease, which is the subject of Will Smith’s recent film, Concussion.

Cobb County Car Accident Attorney Joel Williams

Car accidents are always terrible events. However, it is a tragedy when one proves fatal, or when it leaves young children or teenagers in critical condition. This crash out of Oklahoma is especially sad because the unfortunate victim was a fighter through his whole life. Hopefully, his family will make the decision to donate his brain for further research at the CTE clinic so doctors can work to piece together the puzzle that is this terrible brain injury.

Atlanta Hawks Player Involved in Motorcycle Accident

Atlanta Hawks Player Involved in Motorcycle Accident

A pivotal member of the Atlanta Hawks was involved in a motorcycle accident that reportedly injured the motorcycle rider. The basketball player, who was driving a car at the time of the collision, was uninjured in the crash and played in an exhibition game later in the day. The injured motorcyclist was taken to the hospital for treatment and underwent surgery, but is expected to recover.

Motorcycle Accident Injuries

The crash happened late in the afternoon of Monday, October 17, 2016, in the Druid Hills neighborhood of northeastern Atlanta, Georgia. Paul Millsap, a professional basketball player for the Atlanta Hawks, was driving his Rolls Royce when, according to police reports, a motorcycle driver pulled out in front of him. The motorcyclist lost control of his vehicle and, according to the report, hit Millsap’s car head on. The crash seriously hurt the motorcyclist and caused his motorcycle to burst into flames.

Millsap was not injured in the accident. The driver of the motorcycle, however, suffered serious injuries to his legs, feet, and left arm, and was brought to the hospital for treatment. He underwent surgery the day after the accident, and is expected to make a full recovery.

Millsap, though shaken from the incident, was able to participate in the Hawks’ shoot-around session before their exhibition game later in the night against the New Orleans Pelicans. He would later play in the game, logging 24 minutes but struggling on offense, making only one of the seven shots he took. The Hawks ended up winning, 96-89.

Motorcycle Crashes Often Lead to Serious Injuries

This accident is a great example of how motorcycle crashes often lead to serious injuries far more often than car crashes do. The protection that a car affords its driver and any passengers inside far surpasses what a motorcycle can provide. Cars are heavier than motorcycles and are equipped with numerous safety mechanisms that go great lengths to ensure that a car’s drivers and other occupants are safe during a collision with another vehicle. These include not only seatbelts and airbags, but also side airbags, rearview cameras, and even auto-braking.

Motorcycles, on the other hand, have far fewer safety features that keep their riders safe in the event of a collision. Without  seatbelts and airbags, motorcyclists need to rely on helmets and leather jackets to keep them safe in the event of a collision. Unfortunately, when faced with the considerable weight of other cars or trucks, this is not often enough to protect them from suffering a serious injury.

Tractor-Trailer Accident Outside Atlanta Flattens Car

A white tractor trailer wrecked on the road and laying on it's side near a concrete curb with a metal railing, a yellow truck with a red crane extending over it appearing to be attached to the overturned truck, trying to pull it upright.

Miraculously, no one was hurt in a terrible tractor-trailer wreck in Gwinnet County, Georgia that involved three vehicles. One of the cars involved was crushed beneath a tractor-trailer that rolled onto its side. Despite the damage and terrible appearance of the accident, no one was seriously hurt, shocking all of the emergency responders who were on the scene.

Tractor-Trailer Accident Just Outside Atlanta

The accident happened just before four in the afternoon of Friday, October 14, 2016. A tractor-trailer was out of control in Duluth, Georgia, at the intersection of Boggs Road and Satellite Boulevard. The driver of the truck, Gulab Singh, claimed that his brakes failed after he came off the southbound lanes of Interstate 85, leaving him powerless to stop and prevent an accident at the intersection. The massive tractor-trailer, loaded down with a cargo of potatoes, side-swiped a pickup truck before overturning at the intersection, landing directly on a car carrying two people.

The weight of the truck flattened the smaller car.

Despite the significant damage caused by the accident, neither the driver nor the passenger in the car was seriously hurt. Both were brought to the hospital where they were treated for minor injuries. Singh, the driver of the tractor-trailer that overturned, was unhurt. The driver of the pickup truck that got side-swiped was treated at the scene of the accident. The fuel runoff from the accident was successfully contained by the Gwinnet Fire hazmat team.

Truck Accidents Often Fatal

The fact that no one was seriously hurt in this tractor-trailer accident is surprising, especially considering the fact that large truck crashes are often fatal.

According to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, 3,660 people died in accidents involving large trucks during 2014. Unsurprisingly, most of those who died – 84% of the fatalities – were in vehicles other than the trucks. This is because tractor-trailer trucks are higher from the ground and typically far heavier than anything else involved in a crash, resulting in extensive damage to the other vehicles involved.

While the number of car occupants killed in tractor-trailer accidents has steadily decreased per mile driven by these trucks, they are still worryingly high. And even if no one is killed in a tractor-trailer crash, there are often serious injuries involved that can drastically change someone’s life.

Cobb County Tractor-Trailer Accident Attorney

Car accidents that involve tractor-trailers are far more serious that normal car accidents because of the size and weight of the truck that is involved. Like the difference between bowling with an eight pound ball and with a sixteen pound ball, the amount of force that gets created by a larger vehicle is often underappreciated by anyone who has not seen the difference first-hand.

This is why you need effective legal representation if you have been involved in an accident that has included a tractor-trailer. If you or someone you love has been hurt in such an accident, contact the Cobb County tractor-trailer accident attorney Joel Williams at Williams Elleby Howard & Easter, online for the legal representation that you need.

Wrong-Way Driver Causes Car Accident, Kills Five Teenagers

Multiple cars involved in a wreck with explosive fire coming from two of the cars a large cloud of white smoke is coming from the two cars in the middle.

A tragic series of car accidents in Vermont has left five teenagers dead and numerous others hurt after one driver took his vehicle the wrong way on a divided highway. After colliding with the teens, the driver stole a police cruiser and caused numerous other car accidents before one of the car collisions ejected him from the cruiser and police were able to apprehend him.

Wrong-Way Driver Collides With Car of Teenagers

The horrific scene happened late on the night of Saturday, October 8, 2016, in the small Vermont town of Williston. A Volkswagen Jetta was driving southbound on Interstate 89, just east of Burlington, Vermont. Inside the Jetta were five high school juniors: Eli Brookens, Liam Hale, Janie Cozzi, Mary Harris, and Cyrus Zschau. Four of them attended Harwood Union High School, in nearby Moretown, Vermont.

Responding to a report of a northbound vehicle on the highway’s southbound lanes, police officers stumbled on a terrible two car crash. The Jetta carrying the teenagers was engulfed in flames. While officers at the scene scrambled to pull one of the young girls from the wreckage and put out the flames, the person who allegedly caused the crash, 36-year-old Steven Bourgoin, hopped into the police cruiser and sped away.

Officers sped off in pursuit of the fleeing Bourgoin, who pulled a U-turn to speed the wrong way on the interstate, once again. He collided with no fewer than seven vehicles while driving the stolen cruiser on the wrong side of the road, only coming to a stop when he was ejected from the vehicle after one of the crashes.

All five of the teenagers were pronounced dead at the scene of the accident. They were all either fifteen or sixteen years old. Numerous occupants of the additional seven vehicles struck by the stolen police cruiser were hurt, but none of their injuries appear to be life-threatening.

Young Fatalities Especially Painful

As is always the case, it is especially painful when the fatalities in a car crash are young adults that did not cause the accident. Luckily, our legal system recognizes that these situations are significantly worse than other fatal crashes, and allows for legal maneuvers that make sure the families of those who have passed away receive the compensation that they need to cope with the loss of their loved ones. These wrongful death lawsuits allow the families of those who have died to stand in their shoes in a court of law, seeking damages for the deceased’s injuries and the suffering of their families.

Cobb County Car Accident Attorney Joel Williams

Wrongful death lawsuits are never something that you want to think about. They are remedies that attempt to fix what will always be broken. However, they are the closest that the law can come to replacing the life of those who have lost it.

Milledgeville Car Accident Kills Two, Including College Faculty Member

A blurry view of an ambulance with it's lights on driving up the road at night.

A severe car accident in Baldwin County, Georgia, proved to be deadly for two of the people involved. One of the people who died in the car collision was a professor at a local school. The other fatality was her brother. All three others involved in the three-car accident were hurt All but one required hospitalization for their injuries.

Car Crosses Median, Hits Two Oncoming Vehicles

The crash happened just before midnight on Monday, October 10, 2016, which also happened to be Columbus Day. A 2005 Acura driven by 29-year-old Brandon Hurst was driving southbound on Lake Laurel Road, just a few miles northeast of Milledgeville. The car crossed the median line in the dark and careened into oncoming traffic, just as a 2014 Nissan Altima was coming northbound on the street. The Nissan was driven by 54-year-old Kenneth Everett. Everett’s wife, Allison, 51, was in the passenger seat, while her brother, David Black, 54, was in the backseat.

The two cars collided head on. Hurst’s Acura then spun into another vehicle driven by 27-year-old Wayne Reese, which went over the shoulder and into a small ditch before coming to a rest.

The collision sent the Nissan, along with all three of its occupants, over the shoulder and down an embankment next to the road.

Car Accident Kills Two, Sends Others to the Hospital

By the time emergency personnel reached the scene of the crash, both siblings were deceased. The driver of their vehicle was airlifted to Navicent Health in nearby Macon, Georgia, where he was treated for broken bones. Hurst, the driver of the car that crossed the median and caused the crash, was driven to the hospital in an ambulance for his injuries. Reese, the driver of the third car involved, only suffered minor injuries and was not brought to the hospital.

Deceased Was on Faculty of Local College

One of the two who died in the accident, Allison Everett, was a faculty member at Georgia College and State University, where she taught Exercise Science courses. The campus, a closely-knit community of approximately 7,000 students in Milledgeville, Georgia, is reeling from her loss. She had previously been an adjunct professor at the Georgia Military College for more than a decade.

Motorcycle Accident Leaves One Dead, One Charged With DUI

A body laying in the morge with the bottom of that individual's feet seen sticking out from under a white sheet with a white paper tag tied around the right big toe.

A motorcycle accident in upstate New York proved to be a deadly one, after a pair of motorcycles collided and stuck together. One of the riders was thrown from the wreckage, and later died in the hospital. The other rider was uninjured, but has been charged with driving under the influence (DUI).

Two Motorcycles Collide

The accident happened at around 11:45pm on Thursday, October 6, 2016, near the town of Mumford, New York, and about 20 miles southwest of the city of Rochester, New York.

A motorcycle driven by 62-year-old Albert Bullwinkel, was approaching a left-hand turn onto McGinnis Road. Slowing to make the turn safely, Bullwinkel was hit from behind by 69-year-old Robert Miller. The accident caused the motorcycles to get stuck together and spin out of control on the roadway. Miller was thrown off his bike and into the darkness. On landing, he hit his head and sustained a significant head injury. He was airlifted to the Strong Memorial Hospital in Rochester, where he remained for a few hours before succumbing to his injuries.

Bullwinkel was injured in the accident, but was tested on the scene of the accident for alcohol intoxication and arrested for DUI after he tested positive.

Motorcycle Accidents Far More Dangerous Than Car Accidents

Motorcyclists have very little protection when they are involved in an accident. Unlike cars, which encase their drivers in nearly a ton of metal and plastic, and have extensive safety mechanisms like seatbelts and airbags, motorcycles offer very little in the way of protective measures.

Because of this, the fatality rate for accidents involving motorcycles is significantly higher than it is for cars or trucks. According to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, the number of people who die while riding a motorcycle on the roads of America is 27 times higher than the number of drivers who die while driving a car, per mile traveled.

Because of these dangers, it is imperative that motorcycle riders take every precaution possible while riding a motorcycle. Wearing a helmet has been found to be 37 percent effective in preventing a motorcycle crash from turning fatal. This is why 19 states in the U.S. and the District of Columbia have laws requiring motorcycle riders to wear one. New York is one of these states, but it is unclear whether Miller was abiding by it when the accident occurred.

When motorcycles are involved in accidents on the road, the injuries are often serious.

If you were riding your motorcycle and got into a crash, these injuries can be life-altering. This can be especially disappointing if you were not the one who caused the accident. If this is the case, then you need to get a personal injury attorney who handles motorbike accidents to help you get the compensation that you need and deserve from those who were at fault.

Data from Self-Driving Cars Will Change How Car Accidents are Investigated

A red gauge, similar to a car speedometer, with white words reading PROBLEM, RISK, DANGER, LIABILITY and a red line on the gauge pointing to the word LIABILITY.

With the imminent advent of self-driving cars and other autonomous vehicles, car insurance companies are working overtime to make sure that they are ready for the huge changes that are bound to happen to basic practices on the road. Chief among these is the ability of autonomous vehicles to record extremely detailed data in real-time, which will be a huge help in determining who was ultimately responsible for a car accident.

Autonomous Vehicles Record Extensive Amounts of Data

One of the most basic things that autonomous vehicles do while they are on the road is record data. Only by recording data of the surrounding cars, pedestrians, bikers, road conditions, and weather can self-driving cars effectively navigate the roads without hitting something. If the cameras and sensors that capture this data are the car’s eyes and ears, it is the data that gets collected that is the car’s brain and memory.

Just how much data do self-driving cars collect? According to Datafloq, a leading website for news and information about the big data industry, which is aimed at empowering businesses and other industries to use data collection to maximize their efficiency, Google’s self-driving car generates nearly one gigabyte of data every second it is on the road.

This information includes everything from the exact placement, speed, and location of all surrounding objects, to the air humidity, to all of the car’s internal processes, like engine heat, battery level, and even the amount of lining on the car’s brake pads.

This Data Can Prove Fault in Car Accidents

With so much information being collected on a regular basis, it is not a small step to use it to determine who was at fault in the event of a car crash.

Car insurance companies and trial lawyers like Joel Williams often have to rely on numerous factors when they determine fault in a car accident. Many of these factors, like eyewitness testimony, are often biased or otherwise problematic. Other factors, like visibility or some road conditions, like how tight a turn is, can be subjective, and unique to every driver. Weather conditions change, and can be radically different by the time insurance personnel arrive on the scene of an accident.

All of these issues make determining who was at fault in a car accident less of a science than an art. Unfortunately, when mistakes are made, it is often the driver who ends up suffering after being blamed for a crash that they did not cause.

Cobb County Car Accident Attorney Joel Williams

These situations are just one of the many that make it important to have a car accident and personal injury lawyer like Joel Williams at your side throughout the legal process. By conducting their own investigation into a car accident, attorneys like Joel Williams can challenge any finding made by insurance companies that go against your interests, and can help get you the compensation that you need and deserve from the driver who was really at fault.
