What Constitutes a PI Case in Atlanta, GA?

Personal Injuries come in various shapes and sizes, but there are frequent themes that run through all injury claims in Georgia

Whether you have been in a car accident, bitten by a dog, or the victim of medical malpractice in Atlanta, it is imperative to understand your legal rights, and how your personal injury claim will work.

Common Elements of a Personal Injury Claim in Georgia

In most Personal Injury claims, the plaintiff (the person injured) must prove four elements to be successful in Atlanta. The four main elements that the injured party must show in order to state a valid Personal Injury claim are: 1) that the injuring party (the defendant) was negligent, 2) that the cause of the accident was the negligence, 3) that the defendant's negligent actions caused the injuries, and 4) that the lawsuit was brought timely and within the statute of limitations.

It is critical that you do not sit and wait to file your case. Georgia's laws require you to file your case within a certain time period defined by the statute of limitations. If you do not file within this period, you will have waived any legal right to recover you may have had.

Atlanta has the highest population of any city in the State of Georgia with just under 500,000 people. The Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport as been the world's busiest airport since 1998. That's two years after the city hosted the 100th Olympic Games. Atlanta is the seat of Fulton County government as well as for the entire State of Georgia. Atlantans work for some of the most well known companies who have world headquarters located in the city. The Coca-Cola Company, ATT, UPS, Turner Broadcasting, The Home Depot, and UPS are just a few of the nearly 75% of Fortune's 1000 who have operations in Atlanta. All that industry grosses the city over billion each year. All of the productivity doesn't mean it comes at a lack of greenery.

Atlanta is known both as the "City of Trees" and the "City in a Forest" for the dense tree cover that blankets nearly 40% of downtown. It's the most dense tree cover of any American city. The Atlanta Botanical Garden even offers a Canopy Walk through 600 feet of canopy at 40-feet into the trees. Other city attractions include the Georgia Aquarium, Fox Theatre, Atlanta Contemporary Art Center, Museum of Contemporary Art of Georgia, World of Coca-Cola, Delta Heritage Museum, Carter Center and Presidential Library, and Atlanta sports teams draw patrons from across the globe.
