Frequently Asked Questions

What is the statute of limitations for a personal injury claim in Georgia?

Georgia generally allows two years from the injury date to file a personal injury lawsuit. This deadline is critical because missing it means you lose the right to sue. We advise clients to act quickly after an injury to preserve evidence and protect their legal rights.

Can I still receive workers' compensation if I was partially at fault?

Georgia's workers' compensation system is no-fault, meaning you can receive benefits even if your own actions contributed to the injury. The key requirement is that the injury occurred during employment. We help clients understand their eligibility.

What happens if I'm arrested for DUI?

A DUI arrest involves both criminal charges and potential license suspension. We immediately work to protect your license through administrative hearings while defending the criminal charges. Early legal representation can significantly impact the outcome.
