Legal Question in Personal Injury in Georgia

Hit in Real-Insurance company don't want to pay

I was hit in the rear but the other driver lied and said I merged over on him. We both were given citations but my citation was dismissed. I sustained major injuries but his insurance company does want to accept liability. Do I have a case.

YOu may or may not have a good case, but you are damaging your case in talking to the insurer. Stop doing that and see a lawyer. I'd be glad to review your case at no charge for the first visit. Call me if you are interested.

No one can tell you if you have a strong case based on two sentences and only your side of the story. Obviously, their insured has another side. If they won't pay to your satisfaction, your only real option is to see a qualified personal injury lawyer in your area (keeping mind mind that fees and expenses are 35-40% or more).

I would need more facts but it sounds like you may have a case. There may have to be a accident reconstruction to see the position of the vehicles at impact. Please call my office.

In most cases, the driver in the rear is cited for following too closely and as such is liable for the accident. However, in some case the lead driver might be liable (as in the case of an intentional abrupt stop). I would like to know more about your injury and also the insurance company of the other drive. Please contact me for a free consultation.
