If I have been in a motor vehicle accident, do I need to go to a doctor? 
If you have been hurt in any kind of accident, you should see a doctor as soon as possible. You may not be able to tell the extent of your own injuries. What originally seem like minor aches and pains can turn into something significant. A doctor can tell you if you are showing symptoms of various types of injuries. Later, if you bring a legal claim against the parties causing your injuries, you will need documentation of your injuries and what you did to fix them. If you have been injured in an automobile or motorcycle accident or by the negligence of another, call the Brandon personal injury attorneys at the Wells Law Group. We can help.
Will I have to go to court?

It will depend upon the facts of the case, the extent of the injuries, the law and the parties involved, including the other party’s insurer. The automobile accident attorneys at the Wells Law Group are experienced trial attorneys and will assist you in returning your life back to normal again.

If I’m in an auto accident, who pays my lost wages if I miss work?

If I’m hurt in an accident and it was someone else’s fault, what kind of compensation could I potentially expect to receive?

If you have suffered a permanent injury in an auto accident, not only would you be eligible to be compensated by payment of your medical bills directly after the accident, but you can also potentially recover reasonable future medical bills. If appropriate, mental pain and suffering may be compensable, as may permanent disfigurement. An accident victim can also recover the costs of rehabilitative services, such as physical therapy or even be compensated for costs incurred to modify their home for ease of living and ambulation in some circumstances.

An injured person could also recover lost past and future wages, and compensation for damage to personal property. If your life has been dramatically altered and you cannot do all the things you could do and enjoy prior to the accident, loss of enjoyment of life is also compensable in certain situations. A person’s spouse can also be compensated for loss of consortium, compensation for the negative impact the accident and injuries may have had upon the married couple’s life, love and affection. In addition, a previous injury will not necessarily bar monetary recovery, if the accident aggravated or worsened the injured party’s existing injury. Contact our personal injury attorneys for help.
