Atlanta Whiplash Settlements

Are you suffering from whiplash due to an auto accident? If so, you should contact attorney J. Lee Webb to discuss your case. As an experienced personal injury attorney, Mr. Webb’s clients are his top priority, and he is dedicated to obtaining the maximum Atlanta whiplash settlements for each of his clients.

It is important for you contact an attorney immediately after you are injured in an auto accident. Whether you are dealing with your own insurance company or the other driver’s, the insurer’s goal is to provide the least amount of coverage possible. Fortunately, following some simple guidelines can help ensure you receive a fair settlement for your whiplash injury.

First, if you are involved in an auto accident, make sure you get the names, contact information, and insurance information of every driver who was involved in the accident. Write down the names and contact information of any witnesses and passengers as well. If another driver takes responsibility for the accident, write down his or her statement. If you have a camera close by, photograph the damage to your vehicle, as well as the other involved vehicles. Finally, if a police officer was called to the scene, make sure you write down his or her name and badge number. You should also find out whether any other driver was issued a citation and, if so, what it was for.

You should avoid making a statement to either your or any other driver’s insurance company without first consulting an attorney. Do not take responsibility for the accident—even if it is your fault—and never plead guilty if you are issued a ticket. On the other hand, if you were not responsible for the accident, do not leave the accident scene until you have reported the accident to the appropriate police department, and know how to obtain a copy of the police report.

Contact your physician as soon as possible if you believe you have been injured in a car accident. Remember, what seems like a minor injury today may turn into a serious health problem later down the road. Finally, once you’re ready to discuss your whiplash settlements, call the Law Office of J.
