Fry | Goehring Law Firm Answers Your Personal Injury Law Questions


Personal Injury Law

Q: Can I claim compensation if a car accident aggravated a pre-existing condition?
A: Yes. If a crash worsens a pre-existing condition, you can still pursue compensation. Medical records and expert opinions are key to proving the accident made your condition worse. An experienced attorney can help you document the impact and fight for the compensation you deserve.

Q: How long do I have to file a personal injury claim?
A: In Georgia, you typically have two years from the date of injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. However, exceptions exist, and waiting too long can jeopardize your case. The sooner you contact Fry | Goehring, the better we can preserve evidence, build a strong case, and fight for the compensation you deserve.

Q: How do I know if I have a valid personal injury case?
A: If you’ve been injured due to someone else’s negligence—such as in a car accident, slip-and-fall, workplace incident, or due to medical malpractice—you may have a valid case. Key factors include proving the other party’s negligence directly caused your injury and that you’ve suffered damages, such as medical bills, lost wages, or emotional distress. An experienced attorney can evaluate the details of your situation and help determine the strength of your claim.

Q: What key information do you need after an accident to pursue a legal claim?
A: First, call 911 and wait for the officer. Then, collect as much information as possible, including photos/videos of the scene and vehicles involved, as well as any witness contacts. If you are injured or feel any pain, seek medical attention as soon as possible. Finally, call Fry | Goehring Law Firm for your free case evaluation and obtain the compensation you deserve. You only pay attorney’s fees if we win your case.
