Why You Need an Atlanta Car Accident Attorney

Georgia Car Accident Laws You Should Know
Minimum Liability Insurance Requirements
Georgia requires drivers to carry minimum liability insurance. Understanding the insurance requirements can help you better understand your options after a car accident. Our attorneys can explain how insurance coverage and available compensation may apply to your case.
Comparative Negligence Rules
Georgia follows a modified comparative negligence system. If you are partially responsible for a car accident, your compensation may be reduced based on your percentage of fault. Our attorneys can help evaluate the circumstances of your accident and explain how fault may affect your claim.
This is general information, not legal advice — our attorneys can explain how it applies to your case.

Atlanta Car Accident FAQs
Check for injuries and call 911, move to safety if possible, exchange information with the other driver, photograph the accident scene and vehicles, and seek medical attention even if you feel okay because some injuries may not be immediately obvious.
It is generally best to speak with an attorney before giving a recorded statement to the other driver's insurance company. An insurance adjuster may use your statements when evaluating or limiting your claim.
Georgia's comparative negligence rules may allow you to recover compensation even if you share some fault for the accident, although your compensation may be reduced based on your percentage of fault. An attorney can explain how the rules may apply to your case.
Georgia law establishes deadlines for filing car accident injury claims, and the applicable deadline can depend on the circumstances of your case. Speaking with an attorney as soon as possible can help protect your legal options.
Many car accident claims are resolved through negotiation, but our attorneys prepare each case carefully and can pursue litigation when necessary to seek fair compensation.
We work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you do not pay attorney fees upfront and our fee is generally collected only if we recover compensation for you.
