Know Your Rights After a Life-Altering Motor Vehicle Accident

I know your life, as well as those who love you, has been turned upside down. I know that nothing I can do will undo what’s been done. However, as a passionate, dedicated and aggressive personal injury attorney, I have seen the difference good medical care and representation can make. In addition to physical injuries, clients often undergo financial burdens as a result of being injured such as lost wages, medical bills, out of pocket expenses, etc.

This is why I do this work. I want to help you. Let’s talk about what I can do, call 678-628-2667 and set up a free consultation.

Help With Various Crash Scenarios

There are innumerable ways a collision can happen. However, there are common things that cause these accidents. I can help with injuries that result from:

In most cases, accidents occur because of driver error. The other driver may have been distracted, impaired, speeding, texting, driving aggressively, or ignoring traffic signals and road rules.
I will investigate the scene and when necessary pull in experts to prove both negligence and liability on the part of the other driver. Often times, liability is denied by an at-fault party regardless of an officer’s decision regarding whom was at fault. This is why obtaining an experienced attorney is vital.

Vehicle vs. Motorcycle Collisions

Motorcyclists have little protection, so crashes often result in serious injuries. Many happen when drivers fail to see or yield to motorcycles.

Car vs. Bicycle Accidents

Cyclists are highly vulnerable on the road. These accidents often occur when drivers fail to yield or drive too close.

Pedestrian vs. Auto

Pedestrians have no protection in a collision with a vehicle, often leading to severe injuries.

Commercial Vehicle Collisions

Crashes involving delivery trucks or company vehicles can involve both driver negligence and company liability.

What Compensation May Cover

Every car accident is different. You may suffer the same injury as someone else but to a different degree. Therefore, the type and amount of damages will vary. Typically, most motor vehicle collisions the damages pursued will be all of your:

  • Medical expenses, including exams, surgeries, medications, rehab, equipment and therapies

  • Past and future pain and suffering

  • Loss of income and the loss of your earning capacity

  • Loss of companionship (for maimed individuals)

  • Your lost personal property, such as your car, motorcycle or other items

  • Punitive damages, in fact-specific cases involving especially reckless or egregious conduct

Many people are surprised by how quickly the financial impact of an accident grows. At the same time, insurance companies often make settlement offers that do not fully reflect the true cost of an injury.
During your free consultation,  I will go over your case or the offer from the insurance company. I want you to fully understand what your case is worth. As an attorney dedicated to personal injury cases, I have a comprehensive understanding of Georgia personal injury law and process.

Protecting Motorcyclists After Serious Accidents

Motorcyclists face unique dangers on the road. Unlike drivers in passenger vehicles, riders have very little protection during a crash, which often leads to serious or life-altering injuries.
Many motorcycle accidents occur because drivers simply fail to notice motorcycles. Unsafe lane changes, distracted driving, speeding, and failure to yield are among the most common causes of these collisions.
When a driver’s negligence causes a motorcycle crash, the consequences can include severe injuries such as broken bones, traumatic brain injuries, spinal damage, and long recovery periods.
