Valdosta Auto Accident Attorney Works With Community To Resolve Cases

Valdosta, Georgia based law firm Kenneth S. Nugent, P.C. - Valdosta is reaching out to the local community to share information about their auto accident practice. For many years now, Kenneth S. Nugent, P.C. - Valdosta has been dedicated to assisting the Georgia community with all their legal needs.

Tim Derrickson of Kenneth S. Nugent, P.C. - Valdosta says, “If you have been in a car accident, you should immediately look into hiring an attorney, especially if the accident happened due to someone else’s fault. Your rehabilitation and medical treatment alone can be quite extensive in the period immediately following an accident, and it can continue for years to come. In order to get the compensation you deserve, you will need to let your lawyer handle the insurance companies. They can get you a larger settlement as they are experts at negotiating with insurance companies. If you try to take on your case by yourself, it is likely that you will end up getting a less than fair compensation in order to pay for your injuries, medical bills and your loss of earnings.”

According to Kenneth S. Nugent, P.C. - Valdosta, vehicular accidents are the leading cause of personal injury in Georgia. While the Highway Safety Commission has reported that auto accidents due to intoxicated driving have dropped, accidents due to negligence continue to rise.

The firm points out that auto accidents, in the eyes of the law, involve every means of transportation from automobiles and motorcycles to boats and other recreational vehicles. Negligence, meanwhile, is defined as occurring when the action of a person or other entity fails to act with caution. This can either be from an action that they took as well as a failure to act. Negligence in the case of vehicular accidents can occur for several reasons, including but not limited to distracted driving, driving too fast for conditions, failure to yield, sleepiness, lack of understanding how the vehicle operates, carelessness or reckless driving, mechanical failure (driving a vehicle that is known to be a hazard) and more.

Derrickson says, “It’s understandable that the time after you or a loved one has been in an accident is very stressful. The last thing you want to be thinking about is legal action. However, you need to keep in mind that taking immediate legal action can help you recover from the accident in many ways. If you have incurred a painful injury, it can be tough trying to move forward with your life, and compensation will go a long way with medical expenses and associated bills. Certain steps must be followed after a personal injury to help get the compensation you deserve, and there is no one better to help you with that than our legal team at Kenneth S. Nugent, P.C. - Valdosta.”

Most of my conversations were with Lindsay Gallof, and she was great! Whenever there was an update or change within the case, she’d relay it to me (from the attorney) in a timely fashion. All of my questions were answered in a timely fashion, and everything that I was confused about, they clarified for me. Great experience, would definitely recommend, and I was and still am pleased with my settlement, given my situation.”
