Kenneth S. Nugent Offers Macon Personal Injury Attorney Services
December 16, 2019 – – Kenneth S. Nugent, P.C. in Macon GA has announced that they are offering the services of a personal injury lawyer in Macon and neighboring areas. They are capable of helping with various personal injury claims in this city and nearby places. These include injuries due to car accidents, bicycle accidents, slip and fall accidents, workplace accidents, defective products, medical malpractice, dog bites, nursing home abuse, construction accidents, and premises liability.
Tim Derrickson, a representative for Kenneth S. Nugent, P.C., says, “Personal injury accidents take place every day in Macon. When the injury occurs, you may be confused about where to turn next. Fortunately, there is help available. Our team will help navigate your claim and assist you in receiving the compensation you deserve. If you have been injured due to the negligence of another party, you do not have to fight this battle alone.”
They want people to realize that while an insurance adjuster may seem to be polite and take the side of the personal injury victim, they are actually there for the insurance company, which wants to minimize the claim amount as much as possible. They are hoping that personal injury victims will be in a hurry and will accept a low settlement offer as soon as they can because they simply want the case to be over and get some financial relief. The problem is that once victims have signed a release and waiver, they can no longer bring any legal claims against the at-fault party at any time in the future.
Furthermore, because the law is complicated, victims will require the services of an experienced and skilled Macon personal injury attorney to navigate the complexities of personal injury law in Georgia. The firm will focus on helping clients get fair settlements for their claims. They advise victims not to negotiate with the insurance company on their own. Negotiating their claim without a lawyer on their side will almost always lead to a lower settlement offer.
A common type of personal injury claim in Macon is caused by an automobile accident. Statistics show that more than 1,500 people had died in crashes in 2017 on the roadways of Georgia. In addition, there are many more injuries resulting from such accidents, and most often, the crash was caused by a negligent driver. Even worse are commercial vehicle crashes involving semi-trucks and tractor trailers because the injuries are usually catastrophic and many result into the loss of life. And aside from the driver and passengers, pedestrians often get injured in motor vehicle crashes. The firm has truck accident attorneys and pedestrian accident attorneys who will tackle such conditions.
Another especially vulnerable group is composed of bicyclists. With the weather being warm in Georgia, bicycling is a popular activity in the state. Unfortunately, when a bicycle accident occurs, the results can be catastrophic. That is why the firm also has bicycle accident attorneys for such cases.
And then there are the slip and fall accidents, which may occur in a home, private business, or public gathering area. Such accidents may occur because of a hidden defective condition in the property, for instance, causing the presence of a wet area on the floor. The property owner could be liable if a person slips and falls if he or she did not remedy the condition.
Another common occurrence are workplace accidents. Workplace injuries are governed by complicate questions of law, which means there is a need for the help of a lawyer. While such injuries are usually handled under the workers’ compensation law of Georgia, there are cases where a third party may be sued directly for an injury. For example, there are instances where the injury was not due to the employer but rather by a co-worker or some other person in the business premises.
Meanwhile, when looking for a personal injury law firm Macon GA residents can trust, they can check out the firm’s website or contact them on the phone or through email. They are open from Monday to Sunday, 24 hours a day.
