According to the Georgia Department of Transportation Crash Data Portal, over 360,000 crashes occur each year in Georgia, resulting in more than 1,500 deaths and 140,000 injuries statewide. The most common causes include speeding, distracted driving, and impaired driving. Urban counties such as Fulton, DeKalb, Bibb, Houston, and Chatham consistently report the highest number of serious collisions and catastrophic injuries.
Georgia is a fault state, meaning the driver who causes the accident is responsible for paying damages. Victims can file a claim with the at-fault driver’s insurance or bring a personal injury lawsuit.
Georgia also follows the 50% modified comparative negligence rule. You can still recover compensation if you are less than 50% at fault, but your recovery is reduced by your degree of fault.

If you’ve been in a crash, these Georgia resources can help:
Q: What should I do first after a car accident in Georgia?
A: Call 911, seek medical care, and contact a Georgia car accident lawyer before speaking to insurance adjusters.
Q: Who pays for damages after a Georgia car accident?
A: The at-fault driver’s insurance company typically pays for property damage and injuries, but your own policy may apply if the driver is uninsured.
Q: What is the time limit to file a claim in Georgia?
A: Most personal injury lawsuits must be filed within two years of the date of the accident.
Under Georgia law (O.C.G.A. § 9-3-33), you have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. Property damage claims generally have a four-year statute of limitations. Missing this deadline means losing your right to compensation.
Contacting a lawyer early ensures that evidence is preserved, witnesses are interviewed promptly, and your claim is filed within the proper timeframe.
Local experience matters. Our attorneys know Georgia’s traffic laws, court systems, and insurance regulations. We’ve represented clients in Superior Courts across the state from Atlanta to Augusta and everywhere in between.

How much does it cost to hire a Georgia car accident lawyer?
We work on a contingency fee basis—you pay nothing unless we recover money for you.
Can I still recover damages if I was partially at fault?
Yes. Georgia follows a modified comparative negligence rule (50% Rule). You can recover damages if you are less than 50% at fault, but your award will be reduced by your percentage of fault.
What if the at-fault driver is uninsured?
We explore uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage and other options to help you recover compensation.
Do I need a police report after a car accident?
Yes, it’s essential for proving fault and insurance claims. Always request a report from the responding officer.
How long after a Georgia car accident can I file a claim?
You generally have two years, but acting quickly helps preserve evidence and strengthens your case.
If you or a loved one was injured in a Georgia car accident, don’t face the insurance companies alone. The Brodie Law Group has helped thousands of accident victims recover the compensation they deserve.
