Steps to Take After a Car Accident in Fulton County

If you’ve been involved in a car wreck in Atlanta or anywhere in Fulton County, below are some important steps you should take:

  2. Seek medical attention immediately, even if you feel fine, some injuries are not immediately obvious.
  3. Exchange information with the other driver or drivers and take photos of the scene, vehicles, and injuries.
  4. Do not admit fault or speculate about what happened.
  5. Contact your insurance company to tell them about the wreck.
  6. Do not speak to the other driver’s insurance company, they may offer a quick, low settlement because their loyalty lies with the other driver.
  7. Contact an experienced car accident lawyer before making any statements or accepting any money.

Proving Fault in a Georgia Car Accident

To recover compensation, you must prove that the other driver was at fault. Our skilled personal injury attorneys gather evidence such as:

  • Police crash reports
  • Eyewitness statements
  • Surveillance or dashcam footage
  • Vehicle damage reports and skid marks
  • Cell phone records and driving history
  • Expert testimony from doctors or accident reconstruction experts

Examples of Negligent Driving That Cause Accidents

Most car accidents are caused by careless or reckless behavior including distracted driving, speeding, running red lights or stop signs, driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol, following too closely, road rage, failing to yield, or improper lane changes.

Who Is Liable in a Georgia Car Accident?

Georgia follows a modified comparative negligence rule. This means you can recover damages if you are less than 50% at fault. Your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault. Our attorneys can help determine whether you have a valid case. Our job is to build a strong case that minimizes your liability and maximizes your recovery.

Do I Have to Go to Court?

Not necessarily. Many car accident cases settle out of court through skilled negotiation. However, we prepare every case as if it will go to trial. If the insurance company refuses to make a fair offer, we won’t hesitate to fight for you in front of a jury.

Georgia Statute of Limitations for Car Accident Claims

You generally have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit in Georgia. Don’t wait to contact an attorney, Key evidence can be lost over time.

Why You Shouldn’t Talk to the Other Insurance Company

After an accident, the at-fault driver’s insurance adjuster may try to contact you and offer a quick settlement. Be cautious:

  • These early offers are often lowball amounts that won’t cover your full damages.
  • Anything you say to them can be used to minimize or deny your claim.

Instead, let our skilled car accident attorneys handle all communications and negotiations.
