Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Georgia legal matters.
A claim is a formal request to an insurance company for compensation. A lawsuit is filed in court when a claim cannot be resolved. Many personal injury cases are resolved at the claim stage, but when insurers refuse to offer fair compensation, filing a lawsuit may be necessary.
Not always. Most personal injury cases in Georgia are resolved through negotiation before trial. However, we prepare every case as if it will go to trial — which often leads to better settlement outcomes. If trial is necessary, we are ready.
In Georgia, injured individuals may be able to recover economic damages such as medical bills, lost wages, and future care costs, as well as non-economic damages such as pain and suffering. In some cases, punitive damages may also apply.
Georgia follows a modified comparative negligence rule. If you are less than 50% at fault for an accident, you may still recover damages, though your compensation may be reduced by your percentage of fault.
Georgia follows equitable distribution, meaning marital property is divided fairly — but not necessarily equally. The court considers factors such as the length of the marriage, each spouse's financial situation, and contributions to the marital estate.
Georgia courts determine custody based on the best interests of the child, considering factors such as each parent's relationship with the child, stability of the home environment, and the child's adjustment to school and community. Children 14 and older may express a preference that the court will consider.
In Georgia, an unmarried father has no automatic legal rights to his child, even if he is listed on the birth certificate. Legitimation is the legal process that establishes a father's parental rights, including the right to seek custody or visitation. Without it, the mother has sole legal authority over the child.
Civil litigation involves disputes between private parties — individuals, businesses, or organizations — over rights, contracts, or financial harm. Criminal law involves the government prosecuting someone for a violation of law. Civil litigation results in monetary judgments or injunctions, not incarceration.
Yes. Many civil disputes are resolved through negotiation, mediation, or arbitration before reaching trial. However, when the other party is unwilling to negotiate in good faith, taking the matter to court may be the best path to a fair resolution.
