Attorney Terry Luck has been a member of the Alabama Bar since 1998 and is known for offering clients throughout Montgomery and central Alabama quality, no-nonsense legal representation.
Injuries can happen in many ways, and no two injury cases are the same. That is why at Luck Law, LLC, we take the time to understand each client’s unique situation and offer realistic advice and guidance for their needs. At our boutique firm, we give each client personal attention and provide direct access to an experienced attorney from the onset of your case through the final resolution.
The compensation available in a personal injury claim will vary from case to case, based on the facts and the losses of the injured person. Injuries may involve damages for medical bills, rehabilitation costs, prescription medications, lost income, reduced earning capacity, and property damage, where applicable.
In some cases, it is also possible to receive compensation for pain and suffering or other non-economic losses. The value of a claim will depend on factors such as the seriousness of the injury, the evidence available, and the impact the accident has had on the injured person’s life.
Negligence is often the primary basis for a personal injury claim. To prevail, a plaintiff typically has to prove that another person or party acted negligently and that their negligence caused the injury. To show that another party was negligent, it is necessary to prove they owed a duty to the injured person and that the duty was breached.
In addition, the injured party must have suffered damages because of the other party’s negligence. Alabama is one of a small minority of states that still adheres to the pure contributory negligence rule.
Under this standard, an injured person is completely barred from recovery if they had any role in causing the accident to occur. As a result, it is all the more important for a personal injury claim to have clear evidence of another party’s liability.
Credible evidence can be critical in proving liability and the extent of the injured person’s damages. Useful evidence can include:
Employment records and pay stubs can assist with proving lost income. Expert witness testimony from medical professionals or accident reconstruction specialists may also be necessary, depending on the situation. The injured person may want to organize and preserve this information to help substantiate their personal injury claim during a settlement negotiation or litigation.
As soon as possible after an accident, you should contact an attorney. An attorney can help protect your rights and preserve evidence that could be difficult or impossible to obtain later. Photos, video surveillance, witness testimony, and medical records may all become more difficult to obtain the longer you wait. An attorney can also speak with insurance companies for you and advise you not to make statements that could be used against you.
In Alabama, personal injury claims have a two-year statute of limitations, as outlined in Ala. Code § 6-2-38. The sooner you contact an attorney, the more time they have to thoroughly investigate the accident and build a strong case.
Many personal injury cases are resolved before reaching trial, but every claim is different. If there is a dispute about liability or the value of the damages, litigation may be required. An attorney can negotiate with the insurance company, draft legal filings, and present evidence if the matter proceeds to court.
If your case is filed in Montgomery, it may be heard in the Montgomery County Circuit Court, depending on the nature of the case and other legal factors.
Social media activity can impact a personal injury claim because insurance companies and the opposing party will often review public posts, photographs, or videos. Even information that does not seem related to the accident or injuries can be used to suggest your injuries are not as significant as you claim or that the accident has not impacted your daily life.
Seeking medical treatment soon after an accident not only safeguards your health but can also strengthen your claim. Medical records can provide documentation of the nature and extent of your injuries, the treatment you have received, and your recovery. In 2024, traffic crashes in Alabama resulted in 967 fatalities, and one person was injured in a crash every 14 minutes and 24 seconds, as per the Alabama Department of Transportation.
Seniors may be able to pursue financial recovery following a fall injury if the negligence of another party led to the incident. Property owners and other liable parties can be held responsible for accidents caused by dangerous or defective conditions when the fall could have been prevented.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that the death rate from unintentional falls for adults age 65 and over was 69.9 deaths per 100,000 people nationally in 2023.
Suffering a personal injury can leave you with unexpected medical bills, lost wages, and a future clouded with uncertainty. It is important to know your legal rights and take the necessary steps to recover compensation from the at-fault party.
After a serious accident, choosing the right attorney can make an important difference in your recovery.
