Each state has its own laws regarding the types of damage that are recoverable in an auto accident. In Georgia, for example, a person injured by the carelessness of another has a right to compensation for pain and suffering, reimbursement for medical bills and lost wages incurred due to the accident, and in some cases punitive damages. There are many different sources of possible recovery for auto accident victims, and it is important that they are all identified. Examples of such sources of recovery include: auto liability insurance, resident relative insurance, medical payment coverage on auto policies, umbrella coverage, health insurance and disability insurance. Additionally, auto accident victims do not always realize that even if the responsible party was uninsured or underinsured, a right to make a claim against their own insurance coverage may exist. Victims also do not always realize that they may have a claim against a responsible party who was intoxicated, even if the property damage or injuries appear minor. Victims of auto accidents that occur while on the job may have a third party claim in addition to a claim for their workers' compensation benefits. These are just a few of the examples showing why it is important that victims of auto accidents hire an attorney who can tackle these issues and protect their interests.
