Accidents can happen when you least expect them, leaving you with injuries, medical bills, and uncertainty about the future. If you’ve been hurt because of someone else’s negligence, you may have the right to seek compensation. At Crosby & Crosby Law, our personal injury lawyers in DeKalb County are here to help you. We provide compassionate, skilled legal representation designed to get you the results you deserve.

How Do You Know If You Have a Case?

Not every accident leads to a valid personal injury claim, but understanding the key factors can help you determine whether it’s worth pursuing legal action. You may have grounds for a case if the following apply:

  • The accident was caused by someone else’s negligence.
  • You sustained physical, emotional, or financial harm.
  • Medical expenses, lost wages, or long-term disability resulted from your injury.

These situations often arise in specific types of accidents where legal responsibility can be established. Common examples of personal injury cases include:

  • Car and Truck Accidents: Caused by distracted, impaired, or reckless driving.
  • Slip and Fall Accidents: Occur on unsafe premises, such as wet floors or poorly maintained walkways.
  • Workplace Injuries: Including falls, equipment malfunctions, or toxic exposure.

If you are unsure whether you have a case, contact us for a consultation. Our attorneys will review your situation and advise you on your legal options.

Helpful questions about family law

How to choose the right divorce lawyer?

Choosing the right divorce lawyer, in our mind, comes down to three factors. First, is this lawyer going to be an aggressive advocate for me? Second, is this lawyer a person I can get along with personally? Third, do I trust this lawyer to communicate with me effectively? If you walk away from a consultation with a lawyer answering yes to those three questions, you have likely found the lawyer who is right for you.

Legal work can be extremely time consuming. Your expectations should not necessarily be that your lawyer is someone you can vent to about your personal life, as that would likely result in an unreasonably high bill. But you should expect your lawyer to keep you informed as to the status of your case. You should also expect your lawyer to listen to your wishes and concerns and use those thoughts as a basis for your case. You don’t need to talk to your lawyer everyday, but you should hear from them every other week or so.

Expect the unexpected when it comes to the Court dates. The Court system is based on a first-come-first-serve calendar, when the case is not filed as an emergency. All initial Court dates are determined by the Clerk of the Court, not of the lawyer or client. If you have a lawyer, expect the Judges to want your lawyer to do the talking, unless the Judge asks the client a question directly. You should also expect the Judge to keep the Courtroom as orderly as possible. Judges very much look down on people who speak out of turn. As for dress, the Court does not require a strict dress code, but it is always a good idea to dress professionally to show the Judge that you take the system and their Courtroom seriously.

There is a process in the law referred to as “discovery” that allows a party to a legal proceeding to discover information about the opposing party. In the context of a divorce, “discovery” is primarily used in the form of written questions and written requests for the opposing party to provide documents to the party that is doing the requesting. These are called “interrogatories” and “requests to produce.” During the process, the party answering the questions or requests must provide a written testimony, under oath, that the documents and answers are true and accurate. It is through this process of “discovery” that we are able to learn what assets a party possesses.
