How Can a Georgia Car Accident Lawyer Help?

After a car accident, you may be coping with painful injuries, missing time from work, and trying to figure out what to do next. At the same time, the insurance company may be pressuring you to accept a quick settlement before you even know the full extent of your injuries or future medical needs.
Having an experienced Georgia car accident attorney on your side can make a difference in the outcome of your case. Attorney Tshai Budhi, representing the Summit Legal Team and recognized as an Elite Lawyer, is deeply invested in her clients, taking on the legal burden so they can focus on healing. For example, here are some of the ways we help our clients:
  • Investigate the accident. We conduct an independent investigation to gather evidence, understand how the crash happened, and establish liability. This may include obtaining the police report, interviewing witnesses, collecting photos and video, and working with accident reconstruction experts when needed.
  • Handle the insurance companies. Insurance companies are in business to protect their bottom line, not to maximize your recovery. They may offer a low settlement, downplay your injuries, or use other tactics to minimize your claim. We deal with the insurance companies for you, so you do not have to worry about their tactics or risk saying or signing anything that could hurt your case.
  • Calculate the value of your claim. We work with your doctors and, when appropriate, other medical and financial experts to ensure that your claim encompasses the full extent of your injuries and losses.
  • Negotiate for a fair settlement. Most car accident cases resolve through settlement, but the outcome often depends on the strength of your case, your lawyer’s experience, and the insurance company’s willingness to negotiate. We establish clear liability and evidence of your losses, and tirelessly push for a settlement that reflects the full extent of your damages.
  • Litigate your case if needed. If the insurance company refuses a fair settlement, we are ready to file a lawsuit and fight for justice and compensation in court. We prepare every case as if it were going before a jury. Knowing your lawyer is prepared to go to court often changes how the insurance company treats your claim.
From the initial consultation through case resolution, we shoulder the legal burden so you can focus on healing and rebuilding your life. At Summit Legal Team, your case is not just another file. It is your life, your future, and your peace of mind. Do not hesitate to learn about your legal options and how we may be able to help during a free, confidential consultation.

What Compensation Can I Recover After a Serious Car Accident?

We understand that a serious car accident can upend your life physically, emotionally, and financially. Under Georgia law, if someone else’s negligence resulted in your injuries, you may be able to recover compensation for both your financial losses and the impact of your injuries.
While every case is different, common types of compensation available after a car accident include:
  • Past and future medical bills. This includes any past and future medical expenses related to your injuries. For example, you may be entitled to compensation for the emergency room, hospital stays, surgery, doctor’s appointments, medication, physical therapy, and any ongoing care you may need.
  • Lost wages. If you have missed work while recovering from your injuries, you can claim the income and work benefits you have lost.
  • Loss of future earning capacity. If your injuries affect your ability to work in the same capacity or return to work, you can seek compensation for reduced earning capacity.
    Pain and suffering. Pain and suffering damages encompass the physical pain and emotional distress you suffered due to the accident. These damages reflect the impact your injuries have had on your daily life.
  • Property damages. You can pursue compensation to repair or replace your vehicle, along with compensation for other personal property that was damaged or destroyed in the accident.
If you lost a loved one in a car accident due to someone else’s negligence, you may have a viable wrongful death claim. You may be entitled to compensation for the full value of the life of the decedent, as well as your loved one’s final medical expenses and funeral and burial expenses.
Tshai Budhi ESQ., representing the Summit Legal Team, takes the time to understand how the accident has impacted you and your family. She is meticulous about identifying, documenting, and calculating your losses to pursue the maximum compensation possible for your case.

Car Accident FAQ

How much does a car accident lawyer in Georgia cost?

At Summit Legal Team, our Georgia car accident lawyer handles cases on a contingency fee basis. This arrangement means you do not pay any upfront legal fees or out-of-pocket costs. Our firm covers the costs of your case. Then, our fee is a percentage of the settlement or verdict recovered for you. If we do not win your case, then you do not pay.

Will my Georgia car accident case go to court?

Most car accident cases settle outside of court through negotiation or mediation and never go to trial. However, if the insurance company refuses to negotiate a fair settlement, filing a lawsuit may be in your best interest.
Tshai Budhi ESQ., representing the Summit Legal Team, prepares each case as if it may go to trial, which can strengthen your position in settlement negotiations. It lets the insurance company know that you are ready to fight for your right to compensation in court if it becomes necessary. If your case goes to trial, we will guide you through every step of the process and fight tirelessly for the justice and compensation you deserve.
