FAQs

Why do I need a car accident lawyer?

A car accident lawyer helps protect your rights, negotiates with insurance companies, gathers evidence, and fights to maximize your compensation for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages.

How long do I have to file a car accident claim?

In Georgia, the statute of limitations for most car accident claims is two years from the date of the accident. However, waiting too long can weaken your case, so it’s best to seek legal help as soon as possible.

What should I do after a car accident to protect my case?

After a crash, seek medical attention immediately, document the scene with photos, gather witness information, avoid admitting fault, and contact a car accident lawyer as soon as possible to protect your rights and strengthen your claim.

How much does it cost to hire a personal injury lawyer in Georgia?

Most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing upfront. The lawyer only gets paid if they win your case, taking a percentage of the settlement or verdict.

What if the insurance company offers me a settlement? Should I accept it?

Insurance companies often offer low initial settlements to minimize their payouts. Before accepting any offer, consult with a personal injury lawyer to ensure you receive fair compensation that fully covers your medical expenses, lost income, and other damages.
