The injuries and property damage caused by a negligent driver can seriously alter your health, employment, and personal relationships. Every time we leave home to travel around Atlanta — whether as a pedestrian, cyclist, or driver — we put ourselves at risk of encountering a negligent driver.
Negligent drivers are all over Atlanta, but that doesn’t mean you should have to suffer the consequences of another person’s careless actions. If someone else was responsible for your accident, they are responsible for your injuries!
Injuries from car accidents are unfortunately common in the United States, and Atlanta is no exception.
There are approximately 2.35 million injuries and more than 37,000 fatalities in the country each year due to car accidents. Dealing with the aftermath of a car accident also creates a huge financial impact, to the tune of over $230 billion per year.
Georgia is a significant contributor to national car accident statistics. Georgia is the 14th most deadly state for car accidents, and more than 1,500 people died on Georgia’s roads in just one recent year alone. Fulton County averages over 50,000 total crashes per year and more than 15,000 injuries. Two of the most common contributing causes for traffic-related fatalities in Georgia are speeding and alcohol-impaired driving.
In the Atlanta area alone, more than 100,000 crashes take place each year, causing 34,000 injuries, about 1,500 of them serious and almost 70 of them deadly.
Not only are car accidents far too common, but they often result in painful, life-altering injuries for victims.

No matter the extent of your injuries, you shouldn’t be responsible for them if someone else injured you! We work with our clients to relieve some of the burden created by their injuries by developing a strong case for recovery against the responsible party.
The most important thing to do after an accident is to take care of your health and safety. Be sure to get immediate medical attention. Many car accident injuries can go unnoticed and become increasingly serious over time. Additionally, delaying your treatment allows the defendant to argue that the severity of the injury “wasn’t that bad” or was caused by some other event.
Once you have taken care of your health, keep the following steps in mind as well:
Managing injuries is stressful, and preparing to take legal action at the same time can be overwhelming. But help is available. You can find a trustworthy Atlanta car collision lawyer to guide you through this stressful time right here at Trust Guss Injury Lawyers.
