Navigating Liability in Personal Injury Cases in Albany, Georgia
In Albany, as in the rest of Georgia, determining liability in personal injury cases hinges on two crucial concepts: negligence and comparative fault.
Negligence
Negligence is defined as the failure to exercise reasonable care, which leads to harm to another party. To establish negligence in a personal injury lawsuit, the plaintiff must demonstrate the following:
The defendant had a duty of care towards the plaintiff;
There was a breach of that duty by the defendant;
The breach directly caused the plaintiff’s injuries;
As a result of the breach, the plaintiff suffered damages.
Comparative Fault
Georgia’s legal system operates under a modified comparative fault rule. This means a victim’s compensation may be reduced if they are found partially responsible for their injuries. If a victim is 50% or more responsible, they may not be eligible for any compensation.
At Henningsen Injury Attorneys P.C., our seasoned Albany personal injury lawyers are adept at addressing these complex legal issues and safeguarding your rights.

My experience with Henningsen was very positive. Carmen (my main contact) was very responsive, broke down complicated literature for me, and always had my best interest at heart.

I was involved in an accident that wasn't my fault, I really didn't have a clue what to do next. The day after I was released from the hospital I... read more was very down because I was hurt, out of work and scared. My wife and I were watching TV, and good day channel 5 featured Mr. Todd Henningsen, injury attorney and he was actually giving advice for FREE....We took that as a sign, and called. From the moment I walked through his door, I was treated with kindness, respect,and EVERYTHING with my case was taken care of by Mr Henningsen and his paralegal Carmen, all I had to do was follow their instructions. I was very impressed with their service from start to end. I will recommend them to EVERYONE I know. Thanks so much, and I wish you both much success

I was in a very severe motorcycle accident in September of 2017. I was in the hospital for a long period of time. I went online and googled injury attorneys... read more and the hennigsen firm popped up. I called and Todd was at the hospital within an few hours. He sat down explained everything to me to make sure I understood what we needed to do and the direction to take things. I am very pleased with their services. They always called me back and if I had a question they got back with me as soon as possible. They are truly great people and will take GREAT care of you. Carmen was great as well. She was always on top of things and got back with me promptly. I couldn’t have asked for better people to help me through such a difficult time in my life.

If I ever (god forbid) have any other personal injury or know someone who does I will refer them to this firm. I cannot thank Tammy, Carmen and Mr. Henningsen... read more enough for working tirelessly and being so patient through my case. The hospitals were not competent enough to process the claims despite hours of calls, escalations and restating the policy information, but Tammy was so patient with them and me. I always felt that I had a choice in the matter and I was always given the options on how to move forward. Carmen put my mind at ease when the accident initially happened and educated me on the initial process. Thereafter Tammy was my contact and Mr. Henningsen handled things so well that I had to go and meet Tammy in person (although I could have completed things remotely). I wanted to shake her hand and look her in the eye for helping me through this. I had just missed Mr. Henningsen, but I wanted to do the same with them. He is definitely reflected in his team and they are all wonderful!
