Do all accident, injury, & wrongful death cases go to trial?
No, not all cases go to trial. When a personal injury or wrongful death claim is filed, a skilled Atlanta personal injury lawyer will aggressively negotiate with all opposing parties in an effort to reach a settlement and avoid going to a civil trial that may take years to conclude. This can be very beneficial to a client’s case, as the amount awarded for a settlement is typically much higher than what could be awarded during a civil trial. In addition, if a settlement is awarded it could also save a client the stress of time spent in court and allow a victim or victim’s family member the opportunity to begin re-building their lives with much needed financial security. However, if a case must go to trial an Atlanta, personal injury attorney at our firm can provide aggressive litigation in court in an effort to obtain a recovery on a client’s behalf.
