Atlanta Car Accident Lawyer Fighting for Your Compensation

Mark Thomas Injury Lawyer offers free initial consultations and handles qualifying car accident cases on a contingency fee basis. Attorney fees depend on the fee agreement, so confirm the percentage and any case-related costs before signing.

Georgia generally allows two years to bring a personal injury lawsuit, although exceptions and different deadlines may apply. Insurance reporting requirements can be much shorter.

Georgia generally allows reduced compensation when an injured person is less than 50% responsible. At 50% fault or more, recovery is barred under the state’s apportionment statute.

Depending on the case, compensation may include medical expenses, lost wages, reduced earning capacity, property damage, and pain and suffering. The amount depends on the circumstances and supporting evidence.

Not every minor collision requires an attorney. Legal advice may be useful if you suffered injuries, liability is disputed, symptoms appear later, or an insurer offers a settlement that may not cover your losses.

There is no fixed timeline. Settlement timing depends on medical treatment, investigation, disputed liability, insurance negotiations, and whether litigation becomes necessary.

You may have options through applicable uninsured motorist coverage or other potentially responsible parties. An attorney can review the available insurance policies and circumstances.

A denial does not necessarily end the matter. You can review the reasons, preserve supporting evidence, and consider requesting reconsideration or pursuing legal remedies when appropriate.
