Personal Injury

Summary

Potter Law, LLC handles personal injury claims on a contingency fee basis, meaning you don’t pay unless our team of Atlanta Personal Injury Attorneys recovers the money deserved for you.

The potential for experiencing a serious injury as you go about your daily life is far greater than you may expect. Every day, innocent people are harmed by someone else’s negligence, recklessness or intentional conduct. These result in personal injury cases in which a claim is brought to hold the at-fault party responsible for paying the injured person for any losses. Many cases involve filing a claim with the responsible party’s insurance company to recover damages.
 
Attorney Donovan Potter, Sr. has handled a wide variety of personal injury claims on both the plaintiff and defense side.  From car accident cases, motorcycle accidents, trucking cases, sexual assault cases, negligent security cases to wrongful death cases, we have experience in seeking and winning compensation for our clients. If you’ve been injured at work or lost a loved one due to someone else’s negligence, our personal injury lawyers are here for you.
 
If you or someone you love has been injured by someone else’s negligence or intentional acts, let an experienced Atlanta personal injury lawyer know at Potter Law, LLC. We can advise you about your legal rights. We’re an experienced and trusted law firm and easy to work with. Call us or contact us online.

When to Call Atlanta Injury Lawyers?

 What happens if I got hurt through someone else’s negligence, or worse hurt someone by not paying attention? Someone who causes injury through negligent, reckless or intentional conduct is responsible to the injured person for the damages suffered. The goal of awarding damages is to restore the injured person as much as possible — physically, emotionally, mentally and financially — to the condition that he or she was in before the injury occurred.

Types of Damages After a Personal Injury

 An injured person can potentially recover several types of damages, such as:
 
  • General damages for losses that cannot be easily measured, such as pain and suffering.
  • Lost wages for income not earned due to the injury.
  • Expenses for medical bills and all associated costs incurred from the injury.
  • Lost earning potential for future work.
  • In cases of gross negligence, punitive damages may be part of the settlement or verdict.
An injured person’s family can recover damages as well, including awards for loss of affection (known as loss of consortium) or a claim or lawsuit for wrongful death if the victim has died.
