Truck and car accidents happen quickly and often result in devastating injuries. It is important to act quickly in both the treatment and the investigation. It is not unusual for both the trucking company and the insurance company to move swiftly in order to obtain evidence which may significantly negatively affect your case. Therefore, it is important that you contact us as quickly as possible in order to allow us to serve you while you seek the care that you need.

Rapes, sexual assaults, shootings, stabbings and other physical assaults occur at apartment complexes, shopping centers, malls and other retail establishments daily. Often, if the landlord or retailer had simply paid a few dollars for security, a rape, a shooting or death could easily have been avoided. It is not unusual for a landlord to claim they are not responsible for your safety or that your lease states that you have no claim. Before allowing them to make that decision for you, it is very important that you explore your rights and allow us or another qualified attorney to explore prior crimes known to them, but unknown to you. Negligent security is a frequent result of permanent mental and physical injuries.

There is no greater tragedy than losing a loved one. We understand that. We also understand that there is a time to grieve and a time to assert your rights. Georgia law provides significant rights to the family of a loved one who dies due to the fault of others. Wrongful deaths result from a variety of negligent acts including car wrecks, trucking accidents, products liability, etc. Obviously, this is a serious risk to any insurance company as it is often the case that they will approach you with open arms in an effort to resolve your case well below its value. Prior to doing so, we would strongly encourage you to contact us.

Every worker should know their rights, not only to medical treatment and lost wages, but their ability to chose their own physicians and be involved in the decision making process. Persons injured on the job are often not alerted to the fact that they may have a claim, not only through worker’s compensation, but also the at-fault driver of another vehicle or the establishment where the incident occurred. For example, a person has a right to pursue both a worker’s compensation claim and have their medical bills and lost wages paid for by their employer when involved in the motor vehicle accident, and at the same time, pursue a claim against the insurance company for the at-fault driver. The insurance companies will typically not alert you to this fact. Please contact us so we can assist you with those claims.

Dogs are man’s best friend! However, dogs are wild animals and, unfortunately, often result in permanent scarring and fear of animals. Many dog bites and attacks can be avoided if the owner would have simply properly fenced or leashed their animal or spent a few seconds to warn a child or stranger about the unpredictability of their animal. Many people are unaware that homeowner’s insurance almost always covers these injuries and damages sustained in a dog bite. It is important to explore all avenues including the potential need for plastic surgery to assist in the recovery. Many dog owners are not completely forthcoming prior to litigation about prior dog bites. Please allow us to investigate all such incidents before making a decision on your case.

Thousands of people throughout Georgia slip and trip and fall due to the negligence of a retailer. Often times simply placing a wet floor sign or taking a second to bend over to pick up a wrapper or food item would prevent falls which routinely result in broken bones and the need for surgery. Unfortunately, in our society, slip/trip and falls often have a related stigma which deter persons from pursuing the rights Georgia allows. Prior to giving up on your rights due to the negligence of others, please contact us so we can discuss your case in greater detail.
