Personal Injury Lost Wages

admin — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 20:07:53 +0000

Welcome to a legal article by the Decatur Injury Lawyer about the money you miss out on from work when you are hurt in an accident. This is a vital issue especially in the type of economy we have today. It is so important not to lose your job in this recession, so the below discussion needs to be looked at in this light.

LOST WAGES IN A PERSONAL INJURY LAWSUIT

Any wages you can prove that you lost due to your personal injury case are recoverable. After returning to work, your employer will give us an authorization to release employment information and a salary and lost wage verification. This is important in proving in your lost wage claim.

POLICE REPORT IN A PERSONAL INJURY LAWSUIT

The police report in a personal injury lawsuit contains vital information. For example, you were in an accident in Henry County, for example, the report indicates the name, address, phone number, and insurance company for the at-fault driver. As your personal injury lawyer, this information helps bring a direct action against the other driver. If the other driver has no insurance or cannot be found, then we can see if your insurance policy contains uninsured motorist coverage.

The police report also contains a list of the occupants and witnesses, information of injuries, statements made by witnesses and drivers, and any citations given to the at-fault drive such as DUI or reckless driving.

WITNESSES IN A PERSONAL INJURY LAWSUIT

Eye witnesses are believable. They were not in the accident. They have nothing to gain. If you know of a witness, even if they live in Henry County, Butts County, Rockdale County, Jasper County, Clayton County or anywhere, this is critical your personal injury lawyer. A good witness can be the difference between a great settlement and disputed liability and a lower settlement. As a Henry County Personal Injury Lawyer, I strongly encourage you to disclose anyone who may have seen or heard your accident.

PERSONAL INJURY LAWSUIT – CLIENT DIARY

You are the best witness in your personal injury case. But you, like everyone, can forget the little details. A diary solves this problem and more. When you write down each time your life changed because of the injury, or every time you suffered pain or worry, you are helping your case. If brushing your hair or taking a shower caused pain, jot it down. Insurance companies and jurors in a personal injury case can understand these examples. Further, as your McDonough Personal Injury Lawyer, I can use this to better explain your full pain and suffering. When you put dates with these notations, you are creating a timeline that helps explain the duration of your personal injury.
