Your Georgia Injury Claim Questions, Answered

If you’ve been injured in Georgia, these answers help clarify your options, timelines, and next steps, so you can make informed decisions about your case.

If your question isn’t answered here or you’d like tailored guidance after an injury, schedule a free consultation.

How does Georgia’s comparative negligence rule affect my case?

Georgia follows modified comparative negligence. You can recover compensation if you’re less than 50% at fault, but your award may be reduced by your share of responsibility.

What is the deadline to file a personal injury claim in Georgia?

Most Georgia injury cases must be filed within two years of the accident. Certain cases, like claims involving government entities or medical malpractice, may have different deadlines—so acting quickly matters.

What compensation may be available in Georgia?

Depending on your case, compensation may include medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, property damage, and in rare cases, punitive damages.

How do attorney fees usually work in Georgia injury cases?

Most Georgia personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee, meaning there are no upfront attorney fees and payment happens only if compensation is recovered.

Do I need a lawyer if the insurance company already contacted me?

 Insurance companies focus on limiting payouts. Speaking to an attorney first helps protect your rights and ensures you understand the full value of your claim before agreeing to anything.

Will my Georgia case go to trial?

 Not always. Many claims settle, but if insurers don’t offer fair compensation, litigation may be necessary.

Who can file a wrongful death claim in Georgia?

 Typically a spouse, children, or other qualifying family members may bring a wrongful death claim. Eligibility depends on Georgia law and the circumstances of the case.

Can I sue after a work injury in Georgia?

Most workplace injuries fall under Georgia workers’ compensation, which generally prevents suing your employer. However, you may be able to pursue a lawsuit if:

  • a third party caused the injury, or

  • the employer lacked required workers’ compensation coverage

Because deadlines apply to both workers’ comp and potential third-party claims, early legal guidance can help protect your rights.
