Recoverable Damages in Your Roswell Wrong-Way Accident Case
Recovering compensation following a traffic accident case in the greater Atlanta area relies on the state’s fault-based car accident laws. These personal injury laws may allow you to hold the driver who caused your accident and the resulting injuries responsible for your related damages. Damages in a car accident case may include almost any type of expense or loss you experienced as a result of the accident, including:
- Current damages
- Future likely damages
- Economic damages
- Non-economic, intangible damages
Some examples of damages that we can often recover for our clients in a traffic accident injury case include:
- Medical care costs and all related care expenses
- Costs related to non-medical support and tasks previously covered by the injured party
- Lost wages and other income
- Reduced ability to earn because of long-term or permanent injuries
- Property damages, including damage to your vehicle
- Pain and suffering and other intangible damages
Bader Law Injury Lawyers also pursue wrongful death damages following fatal traffic accidents in Roswell and other nearby areas. When someone passes away because of their accident injuries, O.C.G.A. § 51-4-2 allows some family members to pursue damages based on their own losses and other losses related to their loved one’s accident and death. We can help you navigate this process if you qualify.

We Pursue Compensation for Roswell Wrong-Way Accident Victims
If you can prove the other driver acted negligently and caused your Roswell injury accident, they may owe you compensation for the damages you sustained as a result. In a wrong-way accident case, the negligent act is most commonly going the wrong way on a one-lane road or divided highway, although any violation of a traffic law may establish negligence.
To hold the driver accountable, the evidence must show:
- The driver had an obligation to follow a specific rule, in this case driving the correct way on the road
- The driver failed to follow the rule, driving the wrong way on the road
- Their wrong-way driving caused a collision
- You sustained financial and physical injuries in the collision
The good news is that you do not have to try to gather evidence and prove these factors on your own. If we believe your car accident case has merit, a Roswell wrong-way accident lawyer from Bader Law Injury Lawyers can handle everything while you complete your treatment and focus on your physical recovery. This includes:
- All communication with the insurance company and other parties
- Collecting and analyzing evidence
- Working with accident reconstruction specialists and other experts as needed
- Gathering proof of your damages
- Demanding a fair payout from the insurer
- Taking legal action and bringing your case to trial if it becomes necessary

Understanding How Roswell Wrong-Way Accidents Occur
There are several ways that wrong-way accidents can occur. In most cases, a vehicle goes the wrong way on an entrance ramp or divided highway and hits another vehicle going the correct way. While accidents may also occur on one-way roads, the speeds on these surface streets are generally much lower. This may allow one or both drivers to take action in time to avoid a collision under many circumstances.
Wrong-way accidents on a divided highway or interstate can cause significant injuries because they are head-on collisions that may occur at highway speeds. In some cases, drunk, drugged, fatigued, or distracted driving may also be a contributing factor to these accidents.

The Statute of Limitations on Your Case
Per O.C.G.A. § 9-3-33, you only have a limited time to file a lawsuit after a car accident. This statute places a general two-year statute of limitations on personal injury lawsuits in Georgia. The clock begins ticking the day your accident occurs.
If you wait too long and allow the statute of limitations to expire in your case, it could mean that your case is dismissed by the courts, and you are unable to recover compensation.
