What makes a car accident claim harder than it looks

Insurers often dispute fault, question injuries, or push a quick low settlement before the full extent of harm is known. Georgia's fault and insurance rules affect what you can recover, which is why documentation and timing matter. (Attorney to verify the applicable fault and insurance standards before publish.)

Frequently asked questions

What should I do after a car accident in Georgia?

Get medical attention, call the police so there is a report, and if you are able, take photos and get the contact information of the other driver and any witnesses. Avoid giving a recorded statement to the other driver's insurer before you have advice.

The insurance company offered me a settlement. Should I take it?

Early offers are often made before the full extent of your injuries is known and may be lower than your claim is worth. It can help to get advice before accepting. (Attorney to confirm framing.)

What if the accident was partly my fault?

Georgia follows rules that can still allow a recovery in some shared-fault situations, though the details matter a great deal. (Attorney to verify Georgia's comparative-fault rule before publish.)

How long do I have to file a claim in Georgia?

Georgia sets a limited window to file a personal-injury lawsuit, often two years from the date of injury, but exceptions can apply, so you should not wait to get advice. (Attorney to verify the deadline and exceptions before publish.)
