Why Georgia Clients Choose Williams & Williams Law Firm

Understanding Your Rights in Georgia Personal Injury Cases

Georgia's Statute of Limitations

In Georgia, personal injury victims generally have two years from the date of their accident to file a lawsuit. However, certain circumstances can affect this timeframe, making it crucial to consult with an experienced attorney as soon as possible after your accident.

Comparative Negligence in Georgia

Georgia follows a modified comparative negligence rule, which means that if you're partially at fault for your accident, your compensation may be reduced by your percentage of fault. However, if you're found to be 50% or more at fault, you may be barred from recovery. This makes having skilled legal representation essential for protecting your rights and maximizing your compensation.

Types of Damages Available

Georgia personal injury victims may be entitled to various types of compensation, including:

  • Medical expenses (past and future)

  • Lost wages and diminished earning capacity

  • Pain and suffering

  • Property damage

  • In wrongful death cases, funeral expenses and loss of companionship

Georgia DUI Defense: Protecting Your Future

Understanding Georgia DUI Laws

Georgia has strict DUI laws with serious consequences for conviction. Even a first offense can result in:

  • License suspension

  • Fines and court costs

  • Mandatory DUI education programs

  • Potential jail time

  • Installation of an ignition interlock device

Building a Strong Defense Strategy

Every DUI case is unique, and effective defense requires careful analysis of the specific circumstances. Our approach includes:

  • Reviewing the initial traffic stop for constitutional violations

  • Examining field sobriety test procedures and results

  • Challenging breathalyzer calibration and administration

  • Investigating officer training and certification

  • Exploring plea negotiation opportunities when appropriate

The Importance of Acting Quickly

Whether you're dealing with a personal injury claim or DUI charges, time is often critical. In personal injury cases, evidence can disappear, witnesses' memories can fade, and Georgia's statute of limitations continues to run. In DUI cases, there may be tight deadlines for requesting administrative license suspension hearings and other procedural requirements.

What to Do After a Georgia Accident

If you've been injured in an accident in Georgia:

  1. Seek immediate medical attention, even if injuries seem minor

  2. Report the accident to law enforcement

  3. Gather evidence if you're able (photos, witness information)

  5. Contact Williams & Williams Law Firm for a consultation

  1. Exercise your right to remain silent

  2. Request to speak with an attorney

  3. Don't resist arrest or become confrontational

  4. Remember details about the stop and arrest

  5. Contact Williams & Williams Law Firm immediately
