Atlanta Car Accident Attorney – Although most people get into at least a few car accidents in their lifetime, it can still be a complete shock when it happens to you. This is especially true when you sustain serious injuries in a car accident due to the negligent actions of the other driver. One moment you’re in the middle of a routine day driving to work or an appointment and the next you could be fighting for your life. Atlanta GA Car Accident Lawyer Tyler Schermerhorn understands this all too well. He represents and fights for folks just like you.

Getting Better Should Be Your Only Concern

When you’re trying to recover from serious or life-threatening injuries, you don’t need the added stress of dealing with your medical bills and other out-of-pocket expenses. Unfortunately, that’s exactly what many injured people must do. Medical treatment after the accident alone can run tens of thousands of dollars. If you need extended care, the cost of a hospital stay and rehabilitation can easily go over six figures. You’re also missing time from work as you recover, which is likely unpaid. At a time like this, you need an experienced Atlanta GA Car Accident Lawyer looking after your best interests.

Don’t Count on a Fair Offer

Some injured people avoid filing a personal injury claims because of two wrong assumptions. For example, most people are terrified of courtrooms – even some lawyers. The reality is a vast majority of car crash claims settle long before it would ever go to court. People often think the process will be long and costly. Car crash claims can be settled quickly and any costs are paid up front by Atlanta GA Car Accident Lawyer Tyler Schermerhorn.

That means you pay no out-of-pocket fees until he successfully secures fair compensation for your injuries. NO FEE UNLESS TYLER RECOVERS FOR YOU.

Another incorrect assumption that injured people make is that they will receive a fair settlement from the insurance company representing the other driver, or they don’t want to give a percentage to the attorney. Studies have shown insurance companies almost always pay more when an attorney handles the claim, A lot more. Call Tyler for specific examples of recovery results after injured folks have tried to resolve the case on their own first. Most importantly, keep in mind that insurance companies are businesses with one goal: Create profits for their shareholders. Don’t try to take a huge corporation by yourself, call Tyler.
