We represent drivers, passengers, and riders across Georgia who have been injured in motor vehicle crashes. Whether your accident involved a distracted driver, a high-speed collision, or unsafe road conditions, our team knows how to investigate what happened and pursue full compensation for your injuries and losses.
We handle all types of collisions including rear-end impacts, hit-and-runs, T-bone accidents, head-on crashes, and commercial-vehicle collisions. These wrecks often bring severe injuries and complex liability issues. Determining fault in these cases is critical because the responsible parties must be held accountable.

The most important step is to get medical attention, even if you feel okay. Some serious injuries take time to show symptoms.
If it’s safe to do so, gather photos or video of the vehicles, the roadway, and any visible injuries. Preserve any dashcam footage and collect witness information. Make sure the police are called and a report is filed. Even if you were a passenger, speak with the officers and confirm you are listed on the report so your rights are protected.
Your next step is to contact an attorney before speaking with the insurance company, so you can be sure your rights are fully protected. If you've already discussed the incident with your insurance company, you should still consult with an attorney (completely free) and see what your options are.
In most cases, Georgia law gives you two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury claim. Certain situations, such as crashes involving government vehicles, may have shorter deadlines. Reaching out early allows our team to investigate quickly and preserve important evidence for your case.
Georgia follows a comparative negligence rule, which means each party’s level of fault is evaluated. If you are found less than 50 percent responsible, you can still recover damages, but your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault. Passengers, however, are rarely considered at fault in rideshare crashes since they have no control over the vehicles involved. Our team reviews police reports, witness statements, app data, and crash details to understand what happened and identify who should be held accountable, which may be multiple parties.
Depending on your injuries and losses, you may recover compensation for medical bills, future care, lost wages, pain and suffering, vehicle damage, and emotional distress. If the crash caused severe or permanent injuries, we also pursue damages for long-term disability and reduced quality of life. In rideshare cases, multiple insurance policies may apply depending on the driver’s status in the app, which can create additional avenues for recovery and increase the total compensation available.
Georgia requires drivers to carry minimum liability coverage, but those limits often fall short when injuries are serious. If the at-fault driver has little or no insurance, your own Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM) policy coverage may help pay for your medical bills, lost wages, and other damages. Many people don’t realize they have this coverage. Our team reviews your policy and helps you access every available resource for recovery.
Even if you haven't been hurt in an accident, reach out to our team and we'll be happy to help you assess your coverage to make sure you are as protected as possible.
