Car & truck wrecks

Hurt in a wreck? Let us handle the insurance company.

After a crash, you're dealing with pain, missed work, and adjusters who want to settle fast and cheap. We take that fight off your plate so you can focus on getting better.

Wrecks we handle

From fender-benders that turned out worse than they looked to catastrophic highway collisions, we handle:

  • Car crashesRear-end, T-bone, head-on, and intersection wrecks
  • Tractor-trailer wrecks18-wheelers, box trucks, and delivery vehicles
  • Uninsured driversClaims under your own UM/UIM coverage
  • Rideshare crashesUber and Lyft drivers and passengers
  • Pedestrians & cyclistsPeople hit while walking or riding
  • Hit-and-runsWhen the at-fault driver leaves the scene

Why trucking cases are different

Commercial trucks are governed by federal safety rules on driver hours, maintenance, inspections, and hiring. When a trucking company cuts corners, those records can prove it, but only if someone moves quickly to preserve them.

We send preservation letters right away for logbooks, electronic logging data, dash-camera footage, and maintenance files. In Georgia, a claim can often be brought directly against the motor carrier's insurer, and we know how to use that.

What to do after a wreck

  1. Get checked out by a doctor. Some injuries, like concussions and disc injuries, don't show up right away. Gaps in treatment are the first thing adjusters point to.
  2. Take pictures and keep records. Photos of the vehicles, the scene, and your injuries. Keep every bill and receipt.
  3. Don't give a recorded statement. The other driver's insurer is not on your side. Be polite and refer them to us.
  4. Call us before you sign anything. Early "quick check" offers usually come before anyone knows the full cost of your injuries.

What you may be able to recover

  • Medical bills, past and future
  • Lost wages and lost earning ability
  • Pain and suffering
  • Property damage and rental costs

Watch the clock

In Georgia, most injury claims must be filed within two years of the crash. If a government vehicle was involved, written notice can be due much sooner. Call early so nothing is lost.

Common questions

What if the wreck was partly my fault?

You may still recover. Georgia lets you recover damages as long as you're less than 50% at fault, though your award is reduced by your share of the fault.

The other driver had no insurance. Am I out of luck?

Not necessarily. Your own uninsured motorist coverage may pay for your injuries, and we handle those claims against your carrier too.

How much is my case worth?

It depends on your injuries, treatment, lost income, and the insurance available. We'll give you an honest assessment once we understand your situation.
