Injured? Disabled? Wrongful death? Call Benjamin 0. Bengtson—Your Atlanta Personal Injury Lawyer!
If you have suffered an injury because of the fault or negligence of others, I'm here to help you. My name is Benjamin 0. Bengtson, and I'm an experienced personal injury attorney serving Atlanta GA and the surrounding areas.
Have You Considered the Total Cost to You of a Personal Injury?
Most people do not realize just how much an injury can cost them over the course of time. It can result in current and future medical expenses, pain and suffering, temporary or permanent disability, cosmetic scarring, job loss, reduced quality of life, loss of consortium for your spouse, or loss of current and future income. It's only right that you should be compensated for losses like this. I will help you to determine the extent of your losses and what you can be compensated for. Often, it is much more than you would expect!
Why You Should Call a Personal Injury Attorney
All of my consultations are free. During the consultation, you will receive the legal advice that you need, and in the process, you'll find out first-hand how much I care about my clients and want to help them. I will be paid only if I win money for you. If I can't, you will not owe me a dime.
If you have been made a settlement offer, then you should be aware that most people, businesses and insurance companies hire lawyers to minimize their losses. This means that you may have been offered considerably less than you deserve. Before you accept any offer for an injury, please call me to find out if the offer is the most you can reasonably expect to get. Since the party that injured you or their insurance company usually has lawyers working for them, having an experienced personal injury attorney working for you can tilt the scales of justice back into balance.
Personal injury lawyers like me play two vital roles. First of all, without us, many people would never be justly compensated for harm caused by the negligence of others. Secondly, individuals and businesses ought to be held accountable for unsafe practices. If they were not, our world would be a much less safe place to live. This is because many people simply would not observe safe practices if there were not negative consequences for it. This would result in more people being injured.
Why Time Is of the Essence in Personal Injury Law
It is very important for you to call me as soon as possible after an injury. The longer you wait, the harder it will be for you and witnesses to recall important facts, the more likely that evidence and records will be destroyed or lost, and greater the chance that witnesses or the person who caused the injury will move away. In addition, the statute of limitations is usually only two years in Georgia (and in some cases even less). The sooner you contact me, the more time I will have to give your case the attention it deserves. That doesn't mean I can't help you if you have waited a long time to call, but it will improve the odds of me getting you the full compensation that you need.
