Car Accidents in Georgia
Car accidents are a leading cause of injury in Georgia, particularly in urban areas like Atlanta, where heavy traffic and congested roads increase the risk of collisions. Common causes of crashes include distracted driving, speeding, and failure to yield at intersections.
Georgia operates under a fault-based insurance system, meaning that injured victims may file claims against the at-fault driver’s insurance to seek compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages. In cases involving serious injuries, victims may pursue additional legal action to recover compensation for pain and suffering or long-term disability.
If you or someone you know has been injured in a car accident, it is crucial to seek medical attention immediately, document the accident scene, and consult with legal professionals to protect your rights and secure fair compensation.
