Our Practice Areas
At 1Georgia Personal Injury Lawyers, we serve clients in Atlanta and throughout Georgia in a wide range of personal injury matters. Our practice areas include car, truck, and motorcycle accidents, slip and fall injuries, wrongful death, catastrophic injuries, dog bites, and workers’ compensation claims.
We handle every stage of the legal process—from investigating liability and negotiating with insurers to representing clients in court—always focused on securing maximum compensation so you can recover and move forward.
Car Accidents in Atlanta
Atlanta’s busy roads and highways can be treacherous, with thousands of car accidents occurring each year. From I-285 and I-75 to surface streets in neighborhoods like Midtown, Buckhead, and Decatur, accidents happen frequently and often lead to serious injuries.
These incidents can be overwhelming, leaving victims unsure of how to navigate the legal system or deal with insurance companies. That’s where we come in.
How We Can Help:
- Determining Fault: Georgia operates under a modified comparative negligence rule, meaning if you’re less than 50% at fault for the accident, you can still recover damages. Our experienced attorneys will investigate the details of your accident to prove liability and ensure you are compensated fairly.
- Dealing with Insurance Companies: Insurance adjusters often try to minimize payouts. At 1Georgia Injury Lawyers, we know how to negotiate aggressively on your behalf, so you don’t settle for less than you deserve.
- Maximizing Compensation: From medical bills and vehicle repairs to lost wages and pain and suffering, the costs associated with car accidents can pile up quickly. We fight to ensure that you are fully compensated for both your economic and non-economic damages.
Whether you were involved in a minor fender bender or a major collision, our Atlanta car accident attorneys have the knowledge and experience to help you secure the best possible outcome.
Personal Injury Representation
Personal injury cases in Atlanta can take many forms, from slip and fall accidents to dog bites or even medical malpractice. No matter the circumstances, if you’ve been injured due to someone else’s negligence, you have the right to seek compensation for your injuries.
Types of Personal Injury Cases We Handle:
- Slip and Fall Accidents: Property owners have a duty to maintain a safe environment. If you slip, trip, or fall on someone else’s property due to hazardous conditions like wet floors, uneven pavement, or poor lighting, you may have a case.
- Dog Bites: Georgia law holds dog owners accountable when their pets cause harm. If you were bitten by a dog, we can help you recover compensation for your medical treatment, lost income, and emotional distress.
- Medical Malpractice: When doctors or healthcare professionals fail to provide adequate care, the results can be devastating. If you or a loved one suffered injuries due to medical malpractice, our attorneys will work to hold the responsible parties accountable.
In personal injury cases, time is of the essence. Georgia’s statute of limitations for personal injury claims is generally two years from the date of the injury. The sooner you contact us, the more effectively we can build your case and protect your rights.
What We Do for Personal Injury Victims:
- Investigating the Case: We conduct thorough investigations to gather evidence, interview witnesses, and build a strong claim for compensation.
- Negotiating with Insurance Companies: Like car accident cases, personal injury claims often involve dealing with insurance companies. Our team handles all negotiations to ensure you’re not taken advantage of by insurers looking to minimize your claim.
- Filing Lawsuits if Necessary: If a fair settlement cannot be reached, we are prepared to take your case to court. Our personal injury attorneys have the experience and resources to fight for you in front of a judge and jury.
Workers’ Compensation Claims
If you were injured on the job in Atlanta, you may be entitled to workers’ compensation benefits. However, obtaining these benefits is not always straightforward. Many injured workers face delays, denials, or insufficient benefits that don’t cover their medical bills or lost wages.
At 1Georgia Injury Lawyers, we help injured workers navigate the workers’ compensation system and fight for the benefits they need to recover.
Common Work-Related Injuries:
- Construction Accidents: Atlanta’s booming construction industry is a source of many workplace injuries, from falls and machinery accidents to electrical injuries and more.
- Repetitive Strain Injuries (RSIs): Office workers, warehouse employees, and factory workers are all at risk of repetitive strain injuries that can develop over time. Carpal tunnel syndrome and back injuries are among the most common RSIs.
- Slip and Fall Accidents on the Job: Whether you work in an office, a store, or a restaurant, a slip and fall accident can lead to serious injuries like broken bones, sprains, or head trauma.
How We Help Injured Workers:
- Filing a Workers’ Compensation Claim: The workers’ compensation process can be complex and time-consuming. Our team will guide you through the entire process, ensuring your claim is filed correctly and on time.
- Appealing Denied Claims: If your workers’ compensation claim was denied, don’t give up. We regularly help clients appeal denied claims and win the benefits they deserve.
- Pursuing Additional Compensation: In some cases, you may be entitled to more than just workers’ compensation benefits. If your injury was caused by a third party’s negligence, such as a faulty piece of equipment, we may be able to file a personal injury lawsuit in addition to your workers’ comp claim.
