What You May Be Entitled To Under Georgia Law:

This consultation is for informational purposes only and does not create an attorney-client relationship until you sign a representation agreement.
We start work immediately. This includes scene investigation, witness interviews, medical record collection, and building your case while evidence is fresh.
We present a comprehensive demand to the insurance company and negotiate on your behalf for fair compensation.
If the insurance company refuses to offer fair compensation, we’re fully prepared to take your case to court.
Whether through settlement or verdict, we fight until you receive the compensation you deserve.
We only get paid if you get paid. Our fee is a percentage of your settlement or verdict. All costs (investigation, expert witnesses, court fees) are advanced by our firm and only recovered if your case is successful.
Fee percentages and cost structures will be clearly explained in your representation agreement. You will receive a written fee agreement before signing. Different cases may have different fee arrangements. Ask your attorney for specific details about your case.
Augusta’s busiest roads (I-520, Washington Road, Riverwatch Parkway) see thousands of accidents yearly. If you’ve been hit by a negligent driver, Georgia law allows you to seek compensation for injuries and losses.
Georgia Law Note: Modified comparative negligence (O.C.G.A. § 51-12-33) means you can recover damages even if you’re partially at fault, as long as you’re less than 50% responsible.
Commercial truck crashes often involve catastrophic injuries due to vehicle size and weight. These cases require understanding of federal FMCSA regulations and Georgia commercial vehicle laws.
Georgia Law Note: Trucking companies must carry minimum insurance of $750,000–$1M+ depending on cargo.
Riders face unique dangers and often fight unfair bias from insurance companies. We understand the specific challenges motorcyclists face in Augusta.
Georgia Law Note: Universal helmet law applies to all riders under O.C.G.A. § 40-6-315. All riders and passengers must wear DOT-approved helmets.
Property owners in Georgia have a legal duty to maintain safe conditions. If you were injured on someone else’s property due to negligence, you may have a premises liability claim.
Georgia Law Note: Property owner liability depends on visitor status (invitee, licensee, or trespasser) under O.C.G.A. § 51-3-1 through § 51-3-3.
Injured on the job in Georgia? You’re entitled to medical benefits and wage replacement through workers’ comp, regardless of fault.
Georgia Law Note: You typically have 30 days to report a work injury to your employer (O.C.G.A. § 34-9-80).
If you’ve lost a loved one due to someone else’s negligence or misconduct, Georgia law allows certain family members to pursue a wrongful death claim.

Your initial consultation is completely free. We’ll review your case, answer your questions, and explain your options with zero obligation and zero cost. If we take your case, you pay nothing upfront.
Georgia’s statute of limitations for personal injury claims is generally 2 years from the date of injury (O.C.G.A. § 9-3-33). However, some exceptions apply. The sooner you contact an attorney, the stronger your case—evidence disappears and witnesses forget.
Note: This is general information about Georgia law. Your specific case may have different deadlines. Consult with an attorney to understand deadlines that apply to you.
Don’t accept or sign anything yet. Initial offers are often far below what your case is worth. Once you accept and sign a release, you typically cannot reopen your claim. Let us review the offer and your case before you decide.
If you’ve already accepted an offer and signed a release, your ability to pursue additional compensation may be limited. Consult with an attorney about your specific situation.
You may still recover compensation under Georgia’s modified comparative negligence rule. As long as you’re less than 50% responsible, you can receive damages (reduced by your percentage of fault). We’ll investigate to determine accurate fault allocation.
Note: Fault determination is fact-specific. An attorney must review your case to assess liability issues.
Every case is different. Simple injury cases with clear liability may settle in 3–6 months. Complex cases involving severe injuries or disputed fault may take 12–24+ months. We’ll give you a realistic timeline after reviewing your case specifics.
Case value depends on multiple factors: injury severity, medical costs, lost wages, pain and suffering, permanence of injuries, available insurance, and more. We can’t give you a number without reviewing your specific case details. That’s what the free consultation is for.
No attorney can guarantee a specific outcome or dollar amount. Each case is unique, and results depend on individual facts and circumstances.
You’re not legally required to hire an attorney. However, statistics show that represented claimants typically recover significantly more than unrepresented claimants—even after attorney fees. Insurance companies have lawyers and adjusters protecting their interests. You deserve the same level of representation.
You may have options through your own uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage, if you purchased it. Georgia law requires this coverage to be offered, but you can reject it in writing. We’ll review your insurance policy to explore all avenues for recovery.
Note: Insurance coverage issues are complex. An attorney must review your specific policy language and circumstances.
Most personal injury cases settle before trial. However, if the insurance company refuses to offer fair compensation, we’re fully prepared to take your case to court. We’ll explain the process and keep you informed every step of the way.
