Car accidents are common along Scott Boulevard, Clairemont Avenue, and I-285—but that doesn’t make them any less devastating.

Imagine This
You're heading home from work on South Candler Street when another driver runs a red light and hits your vehicle in the intersection. Your leg is broken, your car is totaled, and the other driver’s insurer wants a recorded statement. An attorney can step in to protect your rights, document your injuries, and pursue full compensation—so you can focus on healing, not negotiating.
What Compensation Can I Recover After a Crash?
Georgia law allows you to seek payment for:
- ER visits, surgeries, rehab, and future medical care
- Lost income and reduced future earning potential
- Pain and suffering
- Property damage (car repair or replacement)
- Emotional distress and loss of quality of life
In cases of gross negligence (like drunk driving), punitive damages may also apply.
