Disfigurement and Personal Injury Claims

If you have been injured in a car accident in Georgia and that injury resulted in a permanent disfigurement, it should be taken into consideration in a Georgia personal injury claim.

If your disfigurement occurred in an accident in which someone else's negligence was involved, then in addition to your medical expenses and lost wages, you may be compensated for:
 

  • any physical or emotional pain and suffering that has been caused by your disfigurement;
  • any future medical expenses that are necessary to treat the disfigurement;
  • your inability to enjoy life as you did before the accident; and
  • any future wages that may be lost because of your inability to return to work. 


In a Georgia personal injury claim, disfigurement may be a burn scar, the loss of a limb or the loss of another body part (eye, ear, etc.). To file a claim after a car accident in Georgia, you can get help from a Georgia personal injury lawyer.

In a Georgia personal injury claim involving permanent disfigurement, your Georgia personal injury lawyer can investigate your case and estimate the value of your claim. With this estimate in mind, your lawyer may attempt to negotiate a settlement with your insurer. 

Contacting a Georgia Personal Injury Lawyer
