Single-Vehicle Accidents in Georgia
Despite the fact that multiple vehicles are frequently involved in car accidents, single-vehicle accidents occur quite frequently. A single-vehicle collision can happen for several reasons.
Because you are the only occupant of the vehicle, you may believe that you are automatically at fault and must pay for your own damages. However, this is not always the case. Even if your vehicle was the only one involved in the accident, you may be able to seek compensation if the accident was caused by another party's negligence.
Drivers must be aware of their options and the potential legal consequences in the event of a single-car collision.
If a driver's actions were the direct cause of a single-vehicle accident, they may be held liable for any resulting damages.
Following a single-vehicle accident, our experienced Car Accident Lawyers may be able to help you with your claim.
You may be entitled to compensation if you were involved in a single-vehicle collision and believe it was caused by someone else's carelessness or negligence.
Accidents involving a single vehicle can be complicated, especially if another driver is at fault. You will need the assistance of an attorney to prove that another motorist or other entity was at fault for your crash.
Accidents involving only one vehicle can be fatal as well. The absence of another vehicle has no effect on the severity of the accident.
If a single-vehicle accident kills someone, the deceased driver's family may be able to hire a Wrongful Death Attorney to help them with their claim if they believe the crash was caused by the negligence of another party.
