Questions
What types of personal injury cases do you handle?
We handle car accidents, truck collisions, motorcycle crashes, nursing home abuse, premises liability, wrongful death, and other injury cases caused by negligence throughout Georgia.
Do you offer free consultations?
Yes, we provide free case evaluations with no upfront costs. Our contingency fee model means you pay nothing unless we win your case.
How long do I have to file a claim in Georgia?
Georgia's statute of limitations allows two years from injury date, though earlier consultation helps preserve critical evidence for stronger cases.
What if I contributed to the accident?
Georgia's modified comparative negligence allows recovery if you're less than 50% at fault, though compensation reduces proportionally to your assigned fault percentage.
How are attorney fees structured?
We work on contingency fees (30-40% of settlement) meaning no payment unless we secure compensation for your injuries and losses.
Can I still claim with pre-existing conditions?
Yes, if an accident aggravated existing conditions, you may recover compensation for increased symptoms and related medical expenses.
