Lost Wages

This is an article about lost wages from the Atlanta Personal Injury Lawyer which has been updated from a previous article.  You will find that information at the bottom of the page.  Do you get money for missed work or lost wages because of accident in Griffin?  This is one of the questions you will have if you have been seriously hurt in a car accident, slip and fall, medical malpractice, worker’s compensation, or other type of personal injury case.  The slant of this article will be about the city of Griffin, Georgia, but the information will be similar to other cities and towns in Georgia and lost wages because of car accidents.  By the way, the answer is yes if you can prove it.

How do you prove you could not work and you lost wages?

Think of the person who believes you the least.  What would they want to see?  Perhaps, a letter from the doctor recommending you not to work?  That sounds good.  Even that skeptical person would tend to start believing you.  And trust me, the insurance handler will be very skeptical.

Our law firm will help you obtain a lost wage verification form from your employer here in Griffin or where ever your work is.  This proves that you didn’t work the days the doctor said you shouldn’t.  Also, the wage verification will indicate your salary and number of hours worked.  This will be important to maximize your compensation in the settlement.

But what does that have to do with my personal injury lawsuit?  Just substitute that skeptical person with the insurance company and you have it.  As your Georgia personal injury lawyer having a doctor’s letter and wage verification form is work exactly the amount of work you missed.
