Understanding Bodily Injury Under Georgia State Law

Bodily injury is a comprehensive legal term encompassing various types of physical harm. While the United States law provides a list of examples, Georgia state law adopts a similar definition without significant alterations. Examples of bodily injury include:

  • Cuts, abrasions, and bruises
  • Burns and disfigurement
  • Physical pain
  • Illness or medical conditions
  • Impairment of any body part, including internal organs, limbs, and the brain
  • Any other type of physical injury to the body, even if it’s temporary

If you’ve sustained a bodily injury, you may be entitled to compensation, particularly if the injury resulted from another person’s negligence. You might be eligible to recover the full amount of your costs and losses, along with significant additional compensation for pain and suffering. This compensation can often exceed your expectations, but having a skilled lawyer can make a substantial difference.
