Personal Injury Lawyers in Foley, Alabama

In Foley, Alabama almost 15% of the population does not have health coverage. That’s a significant portion of the population. So if you have been hurt through someone else’s negligence in Foley, Alabama, you are likely going to have some bills to pay. Especially if you’ve been treated at South Baldwin Regional Medical Center. At Hedge Copeland, we take a wide variety of personal injury claims for residents of Foley, Alabama. Some of the types of cases we take include:

  • Car accidents
  • Truck accidents
  • Bus accidents
  • Motorcycle accidents
  • Slip and fall accidents
  • Defective products
  • Nursing home abuse
  • Wrongful death

 While some personal injury cases do go to court, most are settled out of court. This is because insurance companies have significant motivation to avoid the courtroom—what could have been a simple settlement quickly becomes very expensive once they pay legal fees and, often, additional compensation to the victim. Regardless of whether your claim ends in a settlement or court case, it’s crucial to have a reliable personal injury attorney fighting for you.

You May Be Entitled to Compensation

What type of compensation can you receive after an injury? It all depends on the details of your claim. Many victims receive compensation for:

  • Medical expenses
  • Lost wages
  • Property damage
  • Pain and suffering
  • Future medical expenses
  • Future lost income

 A lot of factors influence how much compensation you receive. The amount and quality of evidence are two incredibly important factors. That’s why it’s important to make the most of the time immediately after an accident. This is a stressful time, and you may find it difficult to stay calm and keep a level head. But if you do, you could be rewarded with a solid body of evidence that strengthens your personal injury claim.

What to Do After an Injury

If the moments following an injury are so crucial, how should you use them? If you follow these steps, you’ll cover your bases by protecting both your health and your personal injury claim.

  • Report it to the proper authorities. The person you should report an accident to depends largely on which type of accident it is.
  • Gather any evidence that may be time-sensitive. Some types of evidence are only available immediately after the accident. A car crash will be cleaned up just hours after the accident occurs, at which point it’s too late to take pictures that can help your attorney determine fault. If anyone stops to offer help after an accident, you need to get their contact information immediately or risk losing them forever.
  • Seek medical attention. You may wonder if you truly need medical care if you feel fine or only have minor symptoms. No matter what, you should get checked out by a medical professional after an accident. Some injuries take hours or days to develop, but a checkup may allow you to catch them early and start treatment. Additionally, a paper trail links any injuries you have to the accident you were involved in. Consider seeing a medical professional at nearby facilities like South Baldwin Regional Medical Center, Immediate Care of the South Foley, and South Baldwin Medical Group.
  • Meet with a Foley, AL personal injury lawyer. The clock starts ticking on your personal injury claim as soon as you get injured. In Alabama, you generally have two years to file a claim against the liable party. That doesn’t mean that you can delay your claim—the earlier you start, the more time your attorney has to build a case against the liable party.

How the Team at Hedge Copeland Can Help

The team at Hedge Copeland has years of experience helping Foley, Alabama citizens recover damages from a personal injury, and during that time, we have developed relationships with expert witnesses, negotiated with the various insurance companies present in this area, and tackled cases in negotiations and in the courtroom.

You shouldn’t have your settlement whittled down to nothing by insurance providers who simply want to boost their profits.

When you choose us for your personal injury claim, we’ll start by investigating your case and your injuries. This will put us in a better position to determine liability, build a case against the other party, and aggressively pursue the compensation you deserve. It’s likely that your claim will be settled in negotiations, but if the other side won’t negotiate in good faith, don’t worry. We are prepared to go to court on your behalf and fight for you there.
