Low-Impact Collision Lawyers in Atlanta, GA


Low-impact collisions are accidents that occur at relatively low speeds, typically under 10 miles per hour. These types of collisions often happen in situations like parking lots, stop-and-go traffic, or when a vehicle is backing up. Although the damage to vehicles in low-impact collisions may seem minor, the injuries sustained by occupants can be significant. Common injuries include whiplash, soft tissue injuries, concussions, and even more severe conditions like herniated discs or joint injuries.


One of the most challenging aspects of low-impact collisions is that the injuries may not be immediately apparent. It’s common for victims to experience delayed symptoms, which can worsen over time if not properly treated. Unfortunately, because the damage to the vehicle may be minimal, insurance companies often downplay the severity of these accidents and attempt to minimize the compensation paid to victims.


The Challenges of Low-Impact Collision Claims


Despite the lower speeds involved, low-impact collisions can lead to complex legal claims. Insurance companies may argue that because the vehicle damage is minor, the injuries are also minor or even non-existent. This misconception can lead to disputes over the validity of your claim and the amount of compensation you are entitled to receive.


At RDN Legal, we understand the unique challenges that low-impact collision cases present. Our experienced attorneys are dedicated to protecting your rights and ensuring that you receive the compensation you deserve, regardless of the speed at which the accident occurred.


How RDN Legal Can Help


When dealing with a low-impact collision, it’s crucial to have a knowledgeable legal team on your side. RDN Legal is here to guide you through every step of the process, ensuring that your case is handled with the attention and expertise it deserves. Here’s how we can assist you:


  • Thorough Case Evaluation: The first step in handling a low-impact collision case is a detailed evaluation of the incident. Our attorneys will review all aspects of your accident, including medical records, vehicle damage reports, and any witness statements. We aim to understand the full extent of your injuries and how the accident has impacted your life.
  • Proving the Severity of Your Injuries: One of the key challenges in low-impact collision cases is proving that your injuries are real and significant, even if the vehicle damage is minimal. We work closely with medical experts to document your injuries and provide evidence that supports your claim. This includes gathering medical records, expert testimony, and other documentation that illustrates the severity of your condition and the necessity of your treatment.
  • Dealing with Insurance Companies: Insurance companies often use the “low impact, low injury” argument to deny or reduce claims. Our attorneys are skilled negotiators who know how to counter these tactics. We will handle all communications with the insurance company, ensuring that your rights are protected and that you receive fair compensation for your injuries, medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
  • Negotiation and Settlement: While we strive to resolve cases through negotiation and settlement, we are fully prepared to take your case to court if necessary. Our attorneys have a proven track record of success in litigating personal injury cases, and we will fight to secure the compensation you deserve.
  • Personalized Legal Support: At RDN Legal, we understand that every case is unique.

Steps to Take After a Low-Impact Collision


If you’ve been involved in a low-impact collision, it’s important to take the following steps to protect your health and your legal rights:


  1. Seek Medical Attention: Even if you feel fine immediately after the accident, it’s crucial to see a doctor. Some injuries, like whiplash, may not present symptoms right away but can become serious if left untreated.
  2. Document the Accident: If possible, take photos of the accident scene, including any damage to the vehicles and visible injuries. Collect contact information from any witnesses and obtain a copy of the police report.
  3. Contact RDN Legal: Before speaking to insurance adjusters or accepting any settlement offers, contact RDN Legal. Our attorneys will review your case and provide you with the guidance you need to make informed decisions.
