Jonathan handled my personal injury case very well. He was very attentive and was able to answer any questions that I had. He put me with great doctors to help me get back on my feet, and I was able to get a good settlement for my injury. His office staff was also professional and friendly. If I ever have an accident again, there's no question that I would want Jonathan to handle my case!

My husband was hit by a negligent young driver. The insurance company for that driver was a bottom of the barrel outfit that didn't even want to accept fault even though the police report said it was her fault and a completely independent witness said it was her fault. We were referred to Jonathan and when he met with us initially he told us that the claim should be resolved pretty swiftly, but warned us that the insurance on the other side was substandard and that waters could get choppy. That insurance company tried to low ball us from the beginning, but Jonathan made them pay for it in the end. Their offer didn't double after we hired Jonathan, it didn't triple, it went up about five times. It's not that we wanted a big pay day, we wanted fair compensation for all of my husband's injuries. His rotator cuff was torn in that crash, and that's not small potatoes. I would hire Jonathan if you want someone that's going to deal with you directly, talk to you straight so that you can understand what's going on, and someone that's going to fight with all he can to hold the responsible parties accountable.

I was hit by a young driver that failed to yield making a left turn. Liability was clear from the start. The policeman wrote her a ticket, an independent witness called the cops and spoke to the officer at the scene, and they totaled out my baby (favorite car) right away. But when it came time to take responsibility and to pay for my medical bills, they offered far less than the total bills, from the ER trip. That's when I called Jonathan. He met with me and laid out a strategy to fight for me so I got what I deserved Well, that insurance company went from bad to worse. So Jonathan sued. We went through the litigation process, depositions, and all of the discovery process. After the case was put on a trial calendar and ordered to mediation, we walked in with a $ 0 offer. That's right, the insurance company pulled the little they offered me shortly after the wreck. But Jonathan was just getting to work. Jonathan fought for me, worked the mediator, and insurance defense attorneys to the point of no return. He explained to them how they faced serious bad faith if they did not offer me the policy limits for the claim. By the end of the mediation, I had received an offer for the full policy limits of $ 25,000. A few weeks later, I go an offer for the full policy limits of my underinsured coverage, $ 30,000 more. He went from $ 0 to the maximum coverage, the hard way. The long way, and the right way. I wouldn't have gotten anything close to that amount without Jonathan's help, his knowledge, and his willingness to fight for my justice. I never wanted a handout, but I didn't want to be shorted. Jonathan got me what I deserved, and I've already recommended him to family and friends, who have been just as pleased.

Attorney Hamiton was refered to me by another personal injury attorney. My refering attorney said: You have a case that needs the "Big Guns" and Attoney Hamilton comes with his arsenal. I must say the statement by the refering attorney was an understatement. I was impressed that Attorney Hamilton handled my case as if I was his family and he had a ethical stake in making sure I was justly compensated for my Past, Present, and Future (Pain and Suffering ) life changing injury. The preparation of my case and the way it was presented assured me that I had chosen the "A" Team. My settlement was "ABOVE and BEYOND" and I recommend anyone who wants an attorney that will stand for them because he believes in the just treatment of any human being. Attorney Hamilton is the attorney of choice.

He's very professional- returns your call and emails and he keeps a client informed on the progress of the case. I wouldn't recommend any attorney I've had in the past but attorney Victor Kutikov. He gets the results you're hoping for.

Had an auto accident with minor injury. Insurance company was a pain to work with. Friend if mine recommended that I talk to Victor, who he has worked with before. From the first phone conversation it was clear that he knew how to deal with the insurance company. He explained all the options and took care of everything. Victor is very easy to work with, very informative and reliable. He kept me in the loop during the entire possess and made sure that I was satisfied with the outcome. I keep his number in my phone and will definitely use him, if needed.

After working with Attorney Rucker I can firmly attest that he is the absolute best litigation and Trial Attorney in the state. My case was dropped by a prior Attorney so to reach the final outcome of a very successful jury verdict of $250,000 from an injury feels like total vindication. I would not have this outcome if it were not for his personal expertize, determination and regard that he showed to my situation from the moment I retained him. No other Attorneys in the state would take my difficult case. Watching him in court I witnessed a truly smart professional who is a master of his craft. He cares and he has a powerful skillset as a litigator that he utilizes to his clients greatest advantage in order to ensure that his clients no longer have to suffer from the many impacts of an injury caused by another.

Needless to say, I recommend Attorney Rucker to you if you want to win...BIG!

Attorney Wilburn represented my sister and brother-in-law in a car accident case. From the moment they stepped into her office until she won the case for them, I was told nothing but good things about her. The entire time she worked on their case, my sister spoke so highly of her. She stated that she had never known an attorney who was as nice and caring as Attorney Wilburn. Not only was she relatable and down to earth, she was a shark of an Attorney who was very knowledgeable in her areas of expertise.

Attorney Rogers provided superior service. He provided representation for me in a trucking accident case. Based on my initial correspondence with him, he went to the accident site and began investigating the wreckage remaining at the site, skid marks on the interstate, and damage to the surrounding vegetation. His knowledge and skills in this area of law made the litigation process proceed in a smooth and timely manner. Attorney Rogers always returned telephone calls in a timely manner.

I am very thankful to have had Clyde Rickard and Jessica Nix as my attorneys for my personal injury case. I started with another firm that wouldn't even return my calls, I could never go to their office (not sure they had an office) the only time I would here from them or their paralegal was to sign papers and it was always to meet this woman in a parking lot and ALWAYS told to sign papers, sign here, sign there and it was all done out of the back of her van which was more than scary. That happened twice, one too many times for me, also I was in constant pain they (the other atty) never helped me as far as my medical attention. And then by the Grace of God I fell right into the lap of Clyde Rickard and Jessica Nick and after a meeting with Clyde and Jessica and them telling me that should have happened but we're not happening with or for me at all. So for me the best move I ever made was to fire them(the other atty) and hired Clyde and Jessica within 2 days I was seeing a doctor that helped me greatly with my pain. I was always kept informed about what was going on with my case and my calls were always answered and returned, any problems that may have come went straight to them and we're handled immediately and again I was always constantly informed about what was going on with my case. And when it came down to the settlement Clyde is a MASTER NEGOTIATOR!!!! My settlement was more than satisfactory for me and definitely more than I expected!!!!!! I was completely floored but forever thankful and grateful to them I would advise anyone if you have an accident or a slip-and-fall you should call no PLEASE CALL Clyde and Jessica immediately don't wait they can get you the help you need, they can send you to an excellent doctor for pain management without having to wait weeks to be seen and they are constantly and always in touch with you, you will always know what's going on with your case. And be assured you will be more than happy satisfied and the more than pleased as I am with the rare professional and caring services these attorneys (Clyde and Jessica) will provide you. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!! RICKARD & NIX (CLYDE & JESSICA) Y'ALL ARE ROCK STARS!!!!!!!!!!

I was in a car accident. I was hit from behind and my car was totaled. I was hospitalized and endured excruciating pain for months. I was unable to work to support my family. The police department failed to do their jobs which allowed the driver to protest being at fault. The police report actually named me as being at fault. I'm rear-ended and it's my fault?, that was insane. So, because of the way the accident report was written. Absolutely, no one would take my case and I literally called about 30 to 50 attorneys. I had the list from the bar, as soon as they heard about the report, it was " I'm sorry we can't help you, good luck." So needless to say by the time I got around to speaking with Mr. Wheale I was extremely distraught from the lawyer rejections, the pain, no car, and the mounting bills. I told Mr. Wheale that I literally was about to have a nervous breakdown! He responded so calmly and confidently that he would take my case! I was in disbelief. He literally had to conduct his own investigation and prove my innocence which was no easy task considering the unfavorable accident report. His legal acumen, work ethic, and presentations were Outstanding! I highly recommend him for all your legal needs. He will aggressively pursue your best interests. He pulled me from the depths of despair. He literally took me from Ruin to Riches! He's definitely the tip of the spear. If you hire Mr. Wheale you will not be disappointed. Mr. Wheale Thank you for winning my case and restoring my peace of mind.

I was involved in an automobile accident that was not only traumatic, but very complicated. Even though I was completely stopped at a traffic sign, and the other driver left their lane and struck my car, effectively taking off the entire front end of the car, I was listed as being at fault. Did I mention that the car was 18 hours old? Yes, a brand new van with less than 30 miles on it. At any rate, my friend recommended that I call Mr. Vaughan, which I did from the crash site. Not only did he take my call immediately and personally, but he compassionately walked me through every step of the horrific process from the emergency room to final disposition. No question or concern was too trivial for Mr. Vaughan. He aggressively protected me from the other insurance company, and surprisingly my own insurance company! He was on the line with every phone call and fielded every question. He did not permit anyone to further victimize me. Mr. Vaughan was what an attorney is supposed to be, but regrettably rarely are. In the end all of my medical bills were taken care of, the other driver was taken care of, and I got a brand new van. Were it not for Mr. Vaughan's compassion, knowledge and unrelenting advocacy on my behalf the accident could have been catastrophic. I do not like attorneys, and I certainly have no trust in attorneys; however, Mr. Vaughan is, as I've already said, what and attorney is supposed to be. Should I or anyone I know ever need legal representation, Mr. Vaughan will be the first person called.

This review is for William Kimsey of Mitchell & Mitchell located in Dalton, Georgia. In 2016, I was involved in a very serious car accident. Dealing with the aftermath involved many medical professionals, medical facilities, auto insurance, medical insurance and replacement of my car all while I was trying to deal with the injuries and the pain. I did not call a lawyer at first because I felt like I was being treated fairly by all the individuals involved. Eventually, I was overwhelmed and found the situation to be way over my head. Not sure what to do I started searching for a lawyer to help me. Having limited dealings with lawyers I wasn't sure what to look for so to the internet I went. After searching through pages of lawyers I was still lost. So I cleared the search, again typed in lawyers near Dalton and asked God to put the lawyer I needed at the top of the list and pressed enter … William J. Kimsey of Dalton, Georgia. I called his office hoping to get an appointment for a consultation. I explained my situation to the very kind sounding person on the other end of the phone. She explain that she would check and call me back. She did and an appointment was made. During my meeting with Mr. Kimsey he immediately put me at ease with his calm and relaxed demeanor. He listened carefully to everything I had to say while he looked over my paperwork. He took the time to explain the situation and to answer my questions. He gave me what he thought would be the probable outcome. The more we talked the more I knew I was in the right place. I had found the lawyer I needed and the worry and anxiety of my situation was gone. Over the next several months He and his assistant Amy worked on my behalf to achieve the best possible outcome. I was kept informed as to the progress of my case. Everyone I dealt with in Mr. Kimsey's office was always very pleasant and very helpful. I am very happy with the result of their efforts. My only regret is that I didn't call him sooner. If I have a need for a lawyer in the future Mr Kimsey will be my first call. I wish to again thank both Mr. Kimsey and his assistant Amy for their efforts on my behalf. May God bless you both!!

We recently moved here from Wisconsin. I was waiting on an appeal from Wisconsin along with my Wisconsin attorney. The decision came in stating my case go back to the Administrative Judge here in Georgia. My Wisconsin lawyer decided he did not wish to proceed here with my case and dismissed himself after almost 4 years. I was shocked. What to do now? I started making phone calls for SSD Attorneys here explaining my case. Not knowing many people let alone any attorney's here, it was a hard find. I contacted attorney's via a Google search. I met with a few, but was either told they did not feel my case was winnable or I just flat out did not like them. Then I met Leonard. I spent about 2 hours in his office in our 1st meeting. He was very likable and knowledgeable. My new hearing was coming up soon and I needed a lawyer, but I was not going to settle for anyone. My future was hanging in the balance. Leonard made me feel welcome and explained to me that this was not going to be easy and we had our work cut out for both of us. His honesty and truthfulness helped with my decision. I felt comfortable and hired Leonard. Many meetings later and tons of paperwork coming in from Wisconsin, our hearing date was set. It may have been a bit overwhelming for Leonard, but he never complained. Always reminding me, this is going to be difficult Joe. I liked that about him. He always gave me a feeling that he knew more then he was letting onto. Me, I was helping with getting things ordered from Wisconsin and we both settled in for a long hearing. I was hopeful having all our paper work in order as well as all the doctors notes. With Leonard beside me, I knew we had a good case. A winnable case! Long story short, We Won That Hearing! We won that hearing on Jan 15,2015. Leonard never gave up, nor did I. To Leonard, should you read this, Thank you sir. To anyone reading this review, should you ever need an attorney who will fight for you, give this man a chance. He will not disappoint you.

Mr. Tidwell did such a great job helping me through my case. He took so much time with me, helping me understand the process and making sure I was able to see the doctors I needed to see even though I didn't have a lot of money to pay the doctors up front. He was more concerned with helping me get better from my wreck than anything else. When it was over, I couldn't believe the recovery he got for me. Not only was I better, but I had enough money to help me get on with my life. If you are looking for a lawyer, you have to call Mr. Tidwell. There can't be any better out there.

Due to a personal injury, a friend recommended the law firm of Apolinsky & Associates, LLC. His recommendation was so positive that I contacted Mr. Apolinsky right away. After several phone conversations, I was sure that I had the right firm to handle my case. Steve Apolinsky was a true professional in every way. He briefed us on what to possibly expect, and it was 'spot-on.’ We couldn't have asked for any better treatment.

I became an actual client of Stephen Appolinsky by means of another attorney who sought out someone with expertise in wrongful death cases. I am so grateful to my first great attorney for referring me to another great attorney at the most difficult time of my life. My 19 year old vivacious firstborn daughter took her own life just hours after being released from the hospital. She had been taken to the hospital by ambulance after the police were called on her for attempting to harm herself. After being evaluated, the hospital released my daughter after several hours. My lawyer, Steve, agreed that there was a measure of negligence and diligently addressed all of my concerns. He personally flew out to Michigan and met with me and many of my family and friends to collect interviews to help strengthen my case. Personal touches such as these coupled with his kind but professional demeanor made me feel as though being his client was a huge blessing. I feel as though I cannot begin to express how happy and satisfied I truly am. As an out-of-state client, Steve kept me abreast and included on all pertinent matters concerning my case. He always considered my feelings and empathized with my fragile emotional state. Steve is an awesome human being which is largely why he is an excellent attorney. My lawyer effectively convinced our opposing party to offer a settlement to me. I believe that this is solely due to Steve's professional reputation and expertise. Steve is an honest, fair, and thorough attorney. I would recommend him in a heartbeat without any reserve. Hands down he is the best attorney.

I was seriously injured in a motorcycle accident (in 2019) that was not my fault. My first attorney did not have any experience litigating motorcycle cases. He was slow to move on the case and was not looking at all options in terms of recompense. After several months of inaction, I handed my case to Allen who, from the very first call, made it clear that he was familiar with how to litigate motorcycle cases - he also rides - and identified ways in which we could achieve a better settlement than just the liability coverage of the other driver which covered less than 25% of my medical expenses. Over the course of the next 9 months, Allen did a great job representing me. He was quick to respond to my requests for updates and patient with me when I asked how the process works. (This was my first time pursuing a civil case.) Through his efforts we were able to settle the case without having to go to trial. I am content with the settlement amount and know that I would not have got anywhere close to this had I stayed with the attorney I had originally hired. If you've been in a motorcycle accident, given Allen a call. He definitely knows what he is doing. Thank you Allen and Dale (Allen's paralegal) for all your time, attention and support. I hope not to need your services again, but if I find myself in a similar situation, I will definitely call.

Joseph Weeks and his firm have shown a high level of professionalism in dealing with my case. When I call his firm I talk directly with a live person, and not an automated attendant asking me to press numbers to speak to someone. I have on several occasions stopped by his office just to drop off requested documents and he has taken time to talk to me and let me know what the latest is with my case. Everyone at his office that I have worked with or spoken to has always been friendly and willing to answer any questions I may have. From the onset of my case, Joseph has been upfront about what to expect and what actions the other party can take. He has guided me through the litigation process and kept me informed of what is going on. Joseph is confident and knowledgeable in preparing documents and dealing with the other party. I will receive a copy of motions, responses and other documents within a few days of receiving them or filing them with the court. He has set a high standard in what to expect when working with an attorney.

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.
