Excellence in Personal Injury and Wrongful Death Claims
Since our firm's founding in 1978, we have been helping victims of serious accidents file claims to obtain full compensation throughout Georgia. While not every accident is the result of negligence, many of the cases we handle involve some person or establishment that was at fault. It is our job to investigate and prosecute your personal injury and wrongful death claim promptly and professionally.
Not every personal injury attorney has the resources to handle complex legal matters. Many personal injury, medical malpractice and wrongful death cases require hiring a team of experts to investigate your accident. We know that our clients are unable to afford hiring those experts on their own. That is why we handle most personal injury matters on a contingent fee basis and commonly advance these expenses. Contingent attorney's fees refer only to those fees charged by attorneys for their legal services. Such fees are not permitted in all types of cases. Court costs and other expenses of legal action usually must be paid by the client
