Personal Injury
Personal Injury Attorney in Cartersville, Georgia
A car accident, a fall on someone else's property, an injury caused by someone else's carelessness. However it happened, you shouldn't have to sort out medical bills, lost income, and an insurance company on your own. We help injured clients understand their options and pursue fair compensation.
Personal Injury
When someone else's negligence causes harm
Personal injury claims take many forms, and no two are exactly alike. What they have in common is that someone else's negligence left another person hurt, and the law gives that person a way to recover for what it cost them. Rather than fitting every matter into a narrow category, we look at what actually happened and help you understand whether you have a claim worth pursuing.
Once we take on a matter, we handle the legal work: gathering records and evidence, dealing directly with insurance carriers, and advocating for your interests, so you can focus on recovering.
What to expect
How it works
- Initial consultation. Tell us what happened. We'll listen and give you a clear read on your situation.
- Building your case. Medical records, accident reports, witness statements, whatever documents what happened and what it cost you.
- Dealing with the insurance company. You talk to us, not them. We handle the calls, the paperwork, and the back-and-forth.
- If it doesn't settle fairly. Most cases resolve through negotiation, but we're prepared to take yours further if the insurance company won't offer a fair number.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
What should I do after being injured because of someone else's negligence?
Seek medical care first, and keep records of treatment, expenses, and lost time from work where you can. It's also worth talking to an attorney early, before speaking at length with an insurance adjuster, so you understand your options before making any statements.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Georgia?
Under Georgia law, most personal injury claims generally must be filed within two years of the injury, though exceptions can apply depending on the circumstances. It's best to speak with an attorney as soon as reasonably possible.
Do I have to go to court?
Not necessarily. Many personal injury matters resolve through negotiation with the insurance carrier. If a fair resolution isn't reached that way, we're prepared to take a matter further.
What does it cost to talk to you about a personal injury claim?
We go over cost and fee arrangements directly with you during your initial consultation, before you decide whether to move forward.
