What makes truck accident cases different from car cases?

- What should I do after a hit-and-run in Georgia?Report it to police immediately, canvass for cameras within days, and notify your own carrier: your uninsured motorist coverage is almost always the path to recovery when the other driver flees.
- What is my rear-end accident worth?Value is driven by diagnosis, treatment consistency, permanency and available coverage, not by the size of the dent. A herniated disc with injections and a surgical recommendation is a fundamentally different case from a resolved strain.
- Do I have to give a recorded statement to the other insurance company?No. You have no obligation to give the at-fault driver's insurer a recorded statement, and doing so before your diagnosis is complete usually only helps them build a comparative fault defense.
- How long do I have to file a claim in Georgia?Two years for injury and wrongful death, four for property damage, but ante litem notice against a city can be due in six months. The practical deadline is much sooner than the legal one because evidence disappears.
