We offer free case reviews and work on a contingency fee basis. This means you pay nothing unless we recover money for you. Our fee is a percentage of your settlement or verdict, so there's no upfront cost or out-of-pocket expense to hire us.
In Georgia, the statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is two years from the date of the injury. However, there are exceptions that may shorten or extend this deadline. It's important to contact an attorney as soon as possible to ensure your rights are protected.
Please bring any relevant documents you have, including: police reports, medical records and bills, photographs of the accident scene or injuries, insurance information, correspondence with insurance companies, and contact information for any witnesses. Don't worry if you don't have all of these—we can still evaluate your case.
Many personal injury cases are settled out of court through negotiations with insurance companies. However, if a fair settlement cannot be reached, we are fully prepared to take your case to trial. Our attorneys have extensive courtroom experience and will fight for your rights every step of the way.
First, seek medical attention immediately—your health is the top priority. Then, if possible, document the scene with photographs, gather contact information from witnesses, and obtain a copy of the police report. Avoid giving recorded statements to insurance companies before speaking with an attorney. Contact Lowe Law as soon as possible to protect your rights.

Georgia follows a modified comparative fault rule. You may still recover compensation even if you share some responsibility for the accident, as long as you are not more than 50% at fault. Your recovery will be reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you're 20% at fault and your damages are $100,000, you could still recover $80,000.
