Most people are used to dealing with tight deadlines every day at work or in their personal lives. Filing personal injury claims is no different. Representing clients in Atlanta, Marietta, and Roswell, Georgia, our attorneys understand how missing a court filing deadline can prevent a client from ever getting into court to seek compensatory and punitive damages. Our attorneys work diligently to ensure that your legal rights are not thrown out of court on a technicality for missing a filing deadline.
Statutes of limitation are deadlines set by courts to cut off a party's right to file some lawsuits. If your lawsuit is not filed before the deadline passes, you will never be allowed to file your suit. Because deadlines change from jurisdiction to jurisdiction and depend on the type of lawsuit being filed, individuals who are considering filing personal injury claims in Atlanta, Marietta, and Roswell, Georgia, should contact the experienced personal injury attorneys at Rogers & Goldberg, L.L.C. Making sure that your case is filed on time is one reason why you should hire a lawyer to represent you.
Courts want to encourage parties who have legal disputes to settle those disputes in a timely manner, without waiting for years to go to court. Important evidence may be destroyed or lost and memories of witnesses can fade over time, making it more difficult for the parties to fairly resolve their disputes. Serious crimes, including murder, have no statute of limitations, meaning a person can be charged with the crime years, even decades, after the crime was allegedly committed. However, filing deadlines are set for most civil lawsuits, including personal injury claims. The personal injury attorneys at Rogers & Goldberg in Atlanta are experienced at handling such claims and can explain to you which deadline applies to your particular case.
If you fail to file your personal injury lawsuit before the statute of limitations on your claim has passed, you will never be able to go into court to seek financial damages for your injuries. It is crucial that you contact Rogers & Goldberg today to discuss your personal injury claims with our experienced attorneys, serving clients in Atlanta, Marietta, and Roswell, Georgia.
