Understanding the Value of Your Georgia Car Accident Claim
Every car accident is unique, and so is the value of each personal injury claim. We meticulously evaluate every detail of your case to determine the full extent of your damages.
Medical Expenses
This covers everything from the initial emergency room visit and ambulance ride to ongoing physical therapy, surgeries, prescription medications, and any future medical care you may require.
Lost Wages & Earning Capacity
If you missed work while recovering, we fight to recover those lost wages. If your injuries are permanent and affect your ability to earn a living in the future, we pursue compensation for your diminished earning capacity.

Critical Steps to Take After a Car Accident in Georgia
What you do immediately after a crash can have a major impact on your health and your legal claim.
Prioritize Safety and Seek Medical Care
Your well-being is the top priority. Call 911 and get examined by a medical professional, even if you feel fine. Some serious injuries have delayed symptoms.
Report the Accident
Cooperate with the police at the scene to ensure an official crash report is created. This report is a critical piece of evidence.
Document Everything
If you are able, take photos and videos of the scene, vehicle damage, and your injuries. Get the names and contact information of any witnesses.
Be Careful What You Say
Do not admit fault or apologize. Limit your conversation with the other driver. Never give a recorded statement to their insurance company without speaking to an attorney first.
Contact Haven Injury Law
The insurance company is not on your side. An attorney will protect your rights, handle all communications, and fight for the fair settlement you deserve.
Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about car accident claims in Georgia
What if I'm injured by a hit-and-run driver in Georgia?
If the at-fault driver cannot be found, you can file a claim to recover damages through your own Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM) policy, if you have this coverage.
Do I have to talk to the other driver's insurance company?
No. You are not required to give them a statement. It is highly recommended that you let your attorney handle all communication and negotiations on your behalf to protect your legal rights.
How long do I have to file a car accident claim in Georgia?
In Georgia, you generally have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. However, there are exceptions that can change this deadline, so it is crucial to speak with an attorney as soon as possible.
