Free Car Accident Case Review in Georgia

A free car accident case review is a confidential first conversation about how a crash happened and what injuries followed. This page explains the free car accident case review Georgia residents can request from Ugwonali Law Group, what it covers, and the Georgia rules that may shape next steps. It is written for people hurt in a crash and for family members researching on someone else’s behalf.

What Is a Free Car Accident Case Review?

Attorney Adanna Ugwonali looks at the facts of a crash and the injuries that followed. The review suits people with real injuries, such as fractures, hospital care, traumatic brain or spinal cord injuries, and families affected by a crash that caused a death.

You can go through the review in English or Spanish. The firm’s free first consultation is confidential and without obligation to continue.

Ugwonali Law Group works from one office, at 3400 Peachtree Road NE, Atlanta, Georgia. It serves metro Atlanta and clients across Georgia.

A review does not mean you must file a claim. It helps you understand your options.

What the Review Covers

The review looks at the crash, fault, your medical care, your insurance, and the claim paths that may fit.

• The crash. The date, place, vehicles, and how the collision happened, such as a rear-end or left-turn crash.
• Fault. Under O.C.G.A. § 51-12-33(a), “[w]here an action is brought against one or more persons for injury to person or property and the plaintiff is to some degree responsible for the injury or damages claimed, the trier of fact . . . shall determine the percentage of fault of the plaintiff . . . .” Subsection (a) also addresses how damages are reduced based on that percentage. Under O.C.G.A. § 51-12-33(g), “the plaintiff shall not be entitled to receive any damages if the plaintiff is 50 percent or more responsible for the injury or damages claimed.”
• Medical care. Whether your treatment was medically necessary is one question the review may address. Your records and bills may be reviewed on that point.
• Insurance. Your own policy, the at-fault driver’s policy, and any commercial or corporate coverage may apply.
• Possible claim paths. A claim against the at-fault driver, or a wrongful death claim after a fatal crash, may fit the facts. Under O.C.G.A. § 51-4-2(a), a surviving spouse, or a child or children if there is no surviving spouse, “may recover for the homicide of the spouse or parent the full value of the life of the decedent, as shown by the evidence.” Other eligible persons may bring claims under separate Georgia provisions.

How the Process Works, Step by Step

The process starts when you reach out and ends with a next step that you choose.

1. Contact. You reach out through the web form or chat with our intake team, in English or Spanish.
2. Intake. Our intake staff collect basic facts about the crash, your injuries, and your treatment so the review can be scheduled.
3. Review. Attorney Adanna Ugwonali reviews the facts with you and explains the legal and medical issues that may apply.
4. Next step. You decide what happens next. The firm explains your options in plain language.

How long the review takes depends on your schedule and how many facts need review.

Deadlines and What to Bring to Your Review

Under O.C.G.A. § 9-3-33, “actions for injuries to the person shall be brought within two years after the right of action accrues.” That section contains exceptions, so the exact deadline depends on the facts of your case.

One exception involves crimes. Under O.C.G.A. § 9-3-99, the period for a tort claim by the victim of an alleged crime is tolled until the prosecution “has become final or otherwise terminated,” provided that such time “does not exceed six years.”

Wrongful death claims have their own timing questions. Raise them with Ugwonali Law Group early in your review.

Bring what you have. Each item is a factor that may influence the review, not a promise of any result.

• Crash report number
• Photos of the scene, vehicles, and injuries
• Medical records and bills
• Insurance letters and claim numbers
• Dates of missed work
• Names of witnesses
