Car Accident Overview
Were You Injured in a Car Accident?
According to the National Safety Council, motor vehicle accidents are the third most likely reason for death in America after heart disease or cancer.
If you have been involved in a car accident, you may be entitled to financial compensation for the damages you have suffered. The Georgia accident attorneys at The Burnside Law Firm have years of experience in getting the rightful compensation for victims of all types of vehicle accidents, including:
-
- Vehicle Rollover Accidents
Certain vehicles like SUVs, vans and trucks are more likely to rollover than others. This is mainly due to design defect. We have the expertise and skills required to identify the defect and hold the manufacturer and others involved in the chain of commerce accountable. - DUI & Drug Related Accidents
A drunk or drug-impaired driver endangers the lives of others and must be made accountable even if not convicted in criminal court. The victim may be eligible to claim compensation from parties other than the driver. See Drunk Driver Accidents & Drug Caused Car Accidents. - Uninsured or Under Insured Motorists
Most auto policies have uninsured and under insured coverage. This will cover your costs and expenses from an accident caused by another driver that is uninsured, under insured or cannot be located. - Fatal Car Accidents
