We Have Sincere Concern For Your Well-Being After A Car Accident

We not only concentrate on developing the strongest possible case to present to the other driver’s insurer but also help you take care of any practical problems that come up while your claim is in progress. For example, if your own health care insurer creates barriers to the tests or treatment you need to make a full recovery, we can help you get the medical attention you need.

We like to try cases and do them well. Most of the time, our excellent reputation as trial lawyers will help you achieve a fair settlement because the insurance companies understand that we are ready, willing and able to go to court to get the compensation you deserve. If we can’t recover the full amount of your damages through negotiation, however, we won’t hesitate to present your case to a jury.

No Matter What Happened, We Can Help

There are many types of car, truck and motor vehicle accidents. Unique circumstances will make every car accident case different. We can help you with your car accident claim in a variety of circumstances, including:

Collisions In Town Or On The Highway

Car accidents can happen on any road, but they are more likely to happen in urban areas. This is because there are more cars and people in urban areas, which increases the risk of accidents. Additionally, urban areas often have more complex traffic patterns, which can also increase the risk of accidents.

Georgia Wrongful Death Claims After A Fatal Car Crash

If a person is killed in a car accident, their surviving family members may be able to file a wrongful death claim. A wrongful death claim is a civil lawsuit that seeks to recover damages for the loss of life and the pain and suffering caused by the death.

Hit-And-Run Or Drunk Driving Accidents

Hit-and-run accidents and drunk driving accidents are serious crimes that can cause significant injuries and even death. If you have been involved in a hit-and-run or drunk driving accident, it is important to seek legal help immediately.

Pedestrian Or Bicycle Accidents

Pedestrian and bicycle accidents are common in urban areas, and they can often be serious. If you have been involved in a pedestrian or bicycle accident, it is important to seek medical attention immediately and to contact a personal injury lawyer to discuss your legal options.

Accidents Involving Semi Trucks Or Other Commercial Vehicles

Semi trucks and other commercial vehicles are involved in a large number of accidents each year. These accidents can be very serious, as they often involve multiple vehicles and serious injuries.

SUV Or Minivan Rollover Cases

SUVs and minivans are more likely to roll over than sedans and hatchbacks. This is because they have a higher center of gravity, which makes them more likely to tip over when they lose control.

Employee Injury Claims

When an employee is injured while driving a company vehicle, the company may be liable for the employee’s injuries. The employee may be able to file a workers’ compensation claim or a personal injury lawsuit against the company.
