Attorney Omole handled my son's head injury to a remarkable success. I was introduced to Atty. Omole three years ago after my son suffered a head injury from a fall at his school's Gym. My son's situation was critical as he spent almost three weeks in the intensive unit at Piedmont Hospital. Our insurance quickly ran out before we met Atty. Omole. He found three other insurance coverages for my son's injury and recuperation. My son is doing remarkably well, with a long term treatment plan negotiated with good settlement.

James Poe is a professional, knowledgeable and compassionate attorney with whom my questions and concerns were always answered completely and in a language with which I could relate. Mr. Poe is always available to talk with me by phone or in person, and his discussions with me are to the point and understandable for a person not well versed in the laws of Georgia. Mr. Poe has a friendly and experienced staff who make it comfortable for me to talk with them or with Mr. Poe. I recommend James Poe with the highest confidence and acceptance.

My wife was seriously injuried by a DUI driver. We were referred to Steve by our Aunt (out of state attorney) and neighbor, who had used him years ago. We had initially contacted Steve through email and he was very professional, responsive and helpful. We knew we made the right decision when we met him face to face. Steve treated us like family and very patiently answered all of our questions. Throughout the entire process of working through the insurance companies, Steve kept us up to date with progress reports and was always available to answer our several email and phone calls . We would highly recommend Steve if you are in need of an attorney.

I was referred to Buzz by a good friend and local Super Attorney about a year ago. Since then I've come to not only rely on him myself,  but constantly recommend him as my sole choice for conscientious, timely and professional representation with a personal touch. Buzz seems to very selectively take on clients he believes in and fights fiercely to maintain and protect their rights per his expert knowledge of the law. Each individual client is more than a number to him. I think that it is this power of discernment and conviction that allows Buzz to still shine against the most stagnant/unyielding opposing counsel I've ever seen. No one can guarantee any specific outcome,  but Buzz provided sound recommendations along with an earnest pledge to do his best.  He delivered on every occasion I needed him to and it felt great to see that goodness still prevails in modern times. For that he earns my highest recommendation and eternal gratitude.  If he ever needed a kidney,  I'd anesthetize myself to hasten the donation procedure. He's that awesome! He's highly underrated in my opinion, but if you ask around among these  Super Lawyers and other such attorneys in Atlanta, they'll likely have heard of him (positively speaking) and his legal prowess.

I was involved in not one but two back to back car accidents to no fault of my own. I had let my health insurance go and had no health insurance. The doctors told me I would need knee surgery but it would be a while bc I was uninsured. Stephen helped me get the knee surgery I needed and quickly. Not only that but he brought money to my pocket and helped me through this difficult time in which I could not work. I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney. He worked late hours and was always available when I needed him. I highly recommend him.

In May of 2018 I was involved in a car accident. I was rear ended and suffered back and shoulder pain. I hired Attorney Blake Fluevog to handle my case and I was very satisfied with the end results. Mr. Fluevog made the process very easy on me. I was sent frequent emails and received phone calls regarding any updates on my case. I highly recommend Attorney Fluevog if you are ever involved in an accident.

Bengtson has told me several times that his goals with clients are to treat us in such a way that we come back to him and refer people to him. He has delivered on that for me. He got a very crappy injury case of mine in a package deal from the attorney I'd originally hired to represent me in it several years ago. That one finally settled and had nothing in it for me. Low policy limits and ongoing pain from it because it was a side hit, I didn't know what I was doing and took forever to get treated. Total mess. Bengtson was nice about it, and I asked what to do if I got into another accident (really when, because I drive a lot). I got into another accident. This one had a semi that caused it. I called a couple of other lawyers to shop around, settled on him because I'd always been able to get questions answered by his paralegal. When I came in for the initial consultation he gave me a $3000 check from the case with no money it it. He'd promised to give me something out of it when it was being mediated, but basic arithmetic said I was getting zero so I hadn't bothered to check back. He DOES NOT use an answering service! So if someone picks up they actually work in the same office (there's a paralegal who works for another lawyer &/or a guy who works reception who pick up the phone occasionally) The semi truck case settled recently and that was a life changing check for me. (Partly because I'd wisely let all needy @$$h03$ exit my life without letting them know I was getting anything good out of the accident) But I haven't had to work since it showed up. And I bought my own place with it too. It was near the bottom of what Bengtson said my case could bring in, but it was plenty so I was fine with it. He indicated we could definitely go to court if I wanted, and I think that did have a somewhat higher likely payout for me.

He was always available when I needed him and was quick to return a message, email or call to see what my question was or to give me updates. He seemed to be on top of everything which was just amazing. I cant praise him enough for his diligence to see this case through in a quick and timely manner.

Kirby Clements is a simply outstanding attorney. He handled my case with professionalism and candor. I was very nervous about my case and its outcome, but he was right there with me every step of the way. He never missed a court date, kept me updated on every situation regarding my case, stood his ground before the opposing counsel, and developed an excellent rapport with the presiding judge. It wasn't too long before he had the opposing counsel ducking for cover and the judge eating out of his hand (smile). I would definitely refer Kirby to anyone (except the opposing side) looking for legal counsel. E.

Our family met Attorney Joseph King roughly 16 years ago for a Malpractice case regarding my father.... It was a journey that can take some years, that is how the system works generally. Mr. King is the best in his field as well as a human being that genuinely cares for all his cases and the victims that have been wronged... I have in fact kept into touch with Mr. King over the years... I am now in a very complicated prediciments that I would only trust Mr. King, confident that not only he is the best, but he will leave no stone unturned and will work in my best interest. I can trust him with a blind eye. If you are looking for someone - honorable, loyal and hard working you've found him... This recommendation is from a client that has known Mr, King over 16 years.... Look no further.... Mr. King's first and only priority is the client. If there is a situation if Attorney King feels that a peer may do more justice, he never hesitates to refer... He is a good and honest man.

Got hit by an 18 wheeler and was given a “$3900 settlement.” Other attorneys are saying this is outrageous and that something is fishy here. Either they did not do their due diligence in pursuing the other party in damages, or they held onto a good chunk of the actual settlement. Back is permanently screwed up from this accident.They also give out gift cards for these reviews. (which is also illegal). These guys are scumbags. Beware of these people. Please do not make a decision based off of these reviews. I have given them the opportunity to make this right.

Vickie Sadler is a Woman of Character and Integrity Following an accident involving a SUV and 18 Wheel Dump Truck on an Interstate my husband and I were both simply glad to be alive. We were not interested in a settlement just our medical bills, item replacement and reimbursement for the expenses associated with the event to which we were traveling as I was driving a company vehicle. We felt that this was something we could handle ourselves with the two other insurance companies involved but after relentless and wise counsel from leaders in my company we sought out our own counsel. We had no intention of receiving money we were not entitled to and Vickie Sadler assured us that she understood and would work at the highest level of integrity on our behalf. We closed our settlement in May with all of the appropriate funds being received, with clear consciences and an intense level of regard, trust and appreciation for Vickie Sadler.

What a Car Accident Lawyer Can Do for You

A car accident lawyer specializes in representing individuals who have been injured in motor vehicle accidents. These lawyers help victims secure compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, pain and suffering, and other losses resulting from a car crash. They also negotiate with insurance companies, investigate the cause of the accident, and, if necessary, represent clients in court to ensure they receive fair compensation.

If you've been injured in a car accident - whether as a driver, passenger, cyclist, or pedestrian - a car accident lawyer can help protect your rights, navigate the insurance claims process, and ensure you receive the compensation you're entitled to.

When Should I Hire a Car Accident Lawyer?

Consider hiring a car accident lawyer in several situations, especially when the accident results in injuries, property damage, or disputes with the insurance company. Key situations include:

  • Serious injuries: If you’ve suffered significant injuries, such as broken bones, spinal injuries, or traumatic brain injuries, a lawyer can help you seek compensation for medical expenses, future treatment, and pain and suffering.
  • Disputes with the insurance company: If your insurance claim has been denied or the insurance company offers an unreasonably low settlement, a lawyer can negotiate on your behalf to ensure you get fair compensation.
  • Liability disputes: If the other driver’s insurance company is disputing fault or claiming you were partially at fault, a lawyer can gather evidence to prove the other party’s negligence.
  • Wrongful death: If a loved one was killed in a car accident, a lawyer can help the family pursue a wrongful death claim to recover compensation for funeral expenses, loss of companionship, and other damages.
  • Uninsured or underinsured driver: If the at-fault driver lacks sufficient insurance coverage, a lawyer can help you explore other compensation options, such as filing a claim with your own insurance company.
  • Complex cases: Accidents involving multiple vehicles, commercial trucks, or complicated circumstances require legal expertise to manage complexities and hold all responsible parties accountable.

Hiring a lawyer early in the process can help ensure that your rights are protected and that you receive the full compensation you deserve.

What Does a Car Accident Lawyer Do?

A car accident lawyer provides various legal services to help injured individuals pursue compensation for their injuries and losses. Their responsibilities often include:

  • Investigating the accident: Gathering evidence like police reports, witness statements, photos, and video footage to determine how the accident occurred and who was at fault.
  • Filing insurance claims: Assisting clients in filing claims with their insurance company and the at-fault driver’s insurer to ensure all necessary documentation is submitted correctly.
  • Negotiating settlements: Working with insurance adjusters to secure fair compensation for medical bills, property damage, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
  • Calculating damages: Determining the full extent of your damages, including current and future medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, lost income, and non-economic damages like pain and suffering.
  • Handling medical bills: Coordinating with healthcare providers to ensure your medical bills are paid and helping you avoid financial hardship during the claims process.
  • Filing lawsuits: If the insurance company refuses a fair settlement, the lawyer can file a lawsuit and represent you in court.
  • Representing you in court: Presenting your case before a judge and jury, providing evidence and witness testimony to prove negligence and your right to compensation.

How Are Car Accident Lawyers Paid?

Most car accident lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if they win or settle your case. The key aspects include:

  • Contingency fee: The lawyer’s fee is typically between 25% and 40% of the total settlement or award. You won't pay upfront fees; the lawyer's payment comes from the compensation they recover for you.
  • No fee if no recovery: If the lawyer doesn’t secure compensation for you, you generally don't owe any legal fees.
  • Case expenses: You may be responsible for certain costs related to your case, such as filing fees or expert witness fees. These are usually deducted from the settlement after the lawyer's fee is paid.

Discuss the fee structure during your initial consultation to understand how much you'll owe if your case is successful.

How Much Does a Car Accident Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a car accident lawyer is generally based on the contingency fee arrangement. General estimates include:

  • Contingency fee percentage: Lawyers typically charge between 25% and 40% of the total settlement or award. For example, if you receive a $100,000 settlement and the lawyer's fee is 33%, the lawyer would receive $33,000, and you'd keep the remaining $67,000.
  • Case expenses: Additional costs such as court filing fees, expert witness costs, and administrative fees can range from $1,000 to $10,000 or more, depending on the case complexity.

Ensure you get a clear explanation of fees and expenses during your consultation.

Top Questions to Ask a Car Accident Lawyer

Before hiring a car accident lawyer, consider asking the following questions:

  1. What experience do you have with car accident cases?
    Confirm the lawyer has handled cases similar to yours, especially involving serious injuries or complex liability issues.
  2. How do you charge for your services?
    Understand the contingency fee percentage and any additional costs you may incur.
  3. What is the likelihood of success in my case?
    Seek an honest assessment of your case's strengths and potential challenges.
  4. How long will the process take?
    Get an estimate of the timeline for settling or taking the case to trial.
  5. Will you handle my case personally?
    Ensure you know who will be managing your case and their level of involvement.
  6. What kind of compensation can I expect?
    Ask about the types of damages you may be entitled to, including medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

How to Check the Credibility of a Car Accident Lawyer

To ensure you're hiring a reputable lawyer, take the following steps:

  • Check their bar status: Verify with your state bar association that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing.
  • Review their experience: Look for specialization in personal injury and car accident cases.
  • Read client reviews: Consult platforms like Avvo or Martindale-Hubbell for testimonials and ratings.
  • Ask for references: Request contact information of previous clients willing to discuss their experience.
  • Check professional affiliations: Membership in organizations like the American Association for Justice (AAJ) indicates a commitment to the field.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To maximize the effectiveness of your initial meeting, bring the following:

  • Police report: A copy of the accident report filed by the police.
  • Medical records: Documentation of your injuries, treatments, and medical expenses.
  • Photos and videos: Any visual evidence from the accident scene and of your injuries.
  • Insurance information: Copies of your insurance policy and any correspondence with insurance companies.
  • Witness information: Contact details and statements from any witnesses.
  • List of questions: Prepared questions about your case and the legal process.

Being well-prepared helps the lawyer assess your case accurately and advise you on the best course of action.
