Why Act Now
The Clock Is Ticking
Catastrophic injuries present unique challenges that demand immediate action. Talk to personal injury lawyers in Atlanta as soon as possible.
1
Fear of the Future
Will your recovery be covered? Can you afford the care you need? Catastrophic injuries bring financial uncertainty—and we remove that burden so you can focus on healing.
2
Fighting the Insurer
Insurance companies profit by minimizing payouts. They'll dispute your injuries, delay your claim, and pressure you to settle fast. We know their tactics—and we shut them down.
3
The Statute of Limitations
Georgia’s clock is ticking. Under O.C.G.A. § 9‑3‑33, most personal injury claims must be filed within two years of the date of injury. Miss that deadline, and your case is over—no matter how strong. We act immediately to preserve evidence, lock down witnesses, and protect your right to recovery.

Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers about catastrophic injury claims in Georgia.
Seek medical attention as soon as possible, even if your injuries appear minor at the time. Symptoms from traumatic injuries can be delayed, and a gap in treatment can be used by insurers to dispute the severity of your injuries. Preserve any available evidence as well, including photographs of the scene, witness contact information, police report numbers, and all medical records from the date of the incident forward. Do not provide a recorded statement to any insurance representative and do not sign any documents before speaking with an Atlanta, GA, personal injury attorney.
Under O.C.G.A. §9-3-33, the statute of limitations for most personal injury claims in Georgia is two years from the date of injury. Claims against government entities are subject to ante litem notice requirements with deadlines as short as six months. Failure to file within the applicable period will bar recovery regardless of the merits of the underlying claim. There are limited exceptions, and the applicable deadline in any given case should be confirmed by an Atlanta accident attorney.
The value of a personal injury claim is determined by the nature and severity of the injuries, the totality of past and future medical expenses, lost wages and diminished earning capacity, non-economic damages such as pain and suffering, and in appropriate cases, punitive damages. No accurate valuation can be provided without a full review of the medical records, liability evidence, and applicable insurance coverage.
Georgia follows a modified comparative fault rule. As long as you are less than 50% responsible for the accident, you can still recover compensation, though your award may be reduced proportionally. Don't assume partial fault ends your case. It often doesn't.
Our Atlanta, GA, personal injury law firm handles personal injury matters on a contingency fee basis. There are no upfront costs and no attorney fees of any kind unless and until we win for you.
Straightforward cases can resolve in months. Complex catastrophic injury cases involving multiple liable parties, disputed liability, or trial preparation can take longer. We move as fast as the law allows, and we never rush a settlement at your expense.
