After a crash in which another vehicle struck you from behind, you have the right to seek damages. As long as you suffered some sort of financial loss and as long as you can prove that the other driver was at fault, you may be able to seek a settlement.
Bader Scott Injury Lawyers is ready to help you prove the facts in the case, which is important to secure a fair settlement. A Mableton rear-end collisions lawyer from our firm can take over negotiations with the insurance company for you, leaving you more time to heal.
Our Clients Know They Can Trust Our Process
When battling against an unfair insurance company in a personal injury case after a car accident, we never back down. We do not care how many attorneys and adjusters the insurer assigns to your case. We will work tirelessly to deliver the settlement you should have.
We have won six- and seven-figure settlements for multiple clients in the past. Our clients know that we will treat them like we would treat our own families. If the insurance company refuses to negotiate in good faith and disrespectfully treats our clients, we often advise them to halt negotiations and take the case to trial.
We Will Ensure You Hit All Deadlines
In Georgia, victims in injury car accident cases have up to two years to start a personal injury case. You can be certain that we will follow all of the deadlines imposed in OCGA §9-3-33, keeping your case moving forward.

Damages You Could Win in a Rear-end Crash
We cannot guarantee that you will win a certain amount in your personal injury case after a car accident in which the other driver was at fault. Each case is a little bit different, which affects the potential settlement amount.
Those victims who have more severe injuries and are unable to work for a long time will have a chance to win a larger settlement than someone who is able to recover from the injuries and return to work in a couple of weeks.
Items Eligible for a Judgment after a Crash
When you can show that the driver who hit you from the rear caused the accident, you are eligible to receive a number of potential financial reimbursements related to your injuries, including:
- Medical bills accumulated to date
- Estimate for medical costs you will accumulate in the future
- Prescription drugs or rehabilitation equipment
- Home health care
- Wages you could not earn while recovering
- Estimate of wages you will not be able to earn in the future
You may also qualify to receive a judgment for emotional trauma, pain, and suffering, which provides you with money related to any reduction in the quality of life you are experiencing after the accident or any ongoing pain or disability you may now have.
To qualify for these reimbursements, you simply have to show negligence on the other driver’s part and show that your financial losses are related to the injuries you suffered in the accident. Our Mableton rear-end collisions lawyer will ensure we have evidence that shows the insurer that you qualify.

Potential Long-term Health Issues after an Automobile Accident
For those who have suffered life-altering injuries in a rear-end collision that was the fault of another driver, we understand that a financial settlement in a personal injury case cannot fix all of the issues you may now have.
However, this should not dissuade you from filing a case and attempting to receive the settlement you deserve. The idea of seeking a financial judgment in a car accident injury case is to help you overcome the financial hardships you may have after the crash because of your injuries.
Common Injuries in a Rear-end Crash
Some of the injuries victims of rear-end collisions suffer can leave them with long-term health problems. They may be unable to work or to enjoy life as they did before the crash. Your settlement can help you with the financial issues associated with these injuries, including:
- Whiplash: When the head and neck snap back and forth from the force of the rear-end collision, this can strain the muscles and tendons in the neck, creating intense pain.
- Concussion: The same forces that can cause whiplash could cause the brain to strike the interior of the skull, leading to a concussion.
- Back: Back strains and spinal cord trauma are also possible because of the force from a rear-end crash.

Proving That You Did Nothing Wrong in the Accident
In a rear-end crash, the driver who hit you from behind is almost always at fault. According to OCGA §40-6-49, a driver following another vehicle more closely than is prudent will be at fault for an accident for following too closely.
Although this motor vehicle law appears to be extremely clear, the insurance company representing the driver who hit you from behind may try to claim that you did something wrong, such as cutting off its driver by switching lanes illegally.
We Can Help You Counteract the Insurance Company’s Claims
When you hire Bader Scott Injury Lawyers to represent you, we will not allow the other driver’s insurance company to make untrue claims. We will rely on the facts that we collect while investigating the case and while speaking with witnesses, showing that you did not do anything wrong and deserve the full settlement.
