How We Help You Establish Liability and Take the Fight to Insurance Companies
After a car accident, big insurance companies typically prioritize their bottom lines over victims’ best interests. Their goal is to minimize your recovery because the less money they pay you, the more they make. The at-fault driver’s insurer may try to shift blame onto you to reduce your total recovery, or push you to accept an initial settlement offer that won’t fully compensate you for your losses.
Our experienced Atlanta car accident attorneys will help you fight back against these tactics by investigating the accident and gathering evidence to prove the at-fault driver’s liability. Once we’ve built a strong case, we’ll push back on any attempts to pin responsibility for the crash on you. We won’t accept any settlement offer that doesn’t pay you what you deserve.
“After a serious injury, the most important thing is getting your attorney involved early. There's issues that come up when it comes to preservation, and preservation is a way that an attorney will be able to tell the at fault driver or the at fault owner that they need to preserve all the evidence. And sometimes insurance companies, if they don't have notice that they need to save evidence, will get rid of evidence. And so an attorney can step in early and make sure they're preserving all the evidence.”
Damages and Compensation Available After an Atlanta Auto Accident
There are many available damages that car accident victims can recover, including compensatory, punitive, and property damages.
Economic Damages
These include monetary losses you suffered after the accident, such as lost wages, vehicle repair bills, and medical expenses.
Non-Economic Damages
These cover the non-monetary losses that are more challenging to quantify. You can seek compensation for the following:
- Physical pain
- Mental suffering
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Disfigurement
- Impairment resulting from your accident.
Punitive Damages
In rare cases where there is “clear and convincing evidence of intentional misconduct or gross negligence,” these damages punish at-fault drivers whose unsafe actions caused the accident. There may be additional considerations if a commercial vehicle driver is involved.
Some notable car accident case results we’ve obtained for clients include the following:
- A $2.5 million verdict for a woman who suffered neck injuries in a car accident.
- A $2.4 million verdict for a driver who was unable to return to work after being injured in a car accident.
- A $1.4 million recovery for a U.S. Army veteran who was only offered $60,000 pre-trial after being seriously hurt in a car accident on I-95.
- Two $1.2 million recoveries for clients who suffered spinal cord damage after car crashes.

How Much Time Do I Have To File My Atlanta Car Accident Claim?
The statute of limitations for car accident personal injury claims in Georgia is two years after the date of the crash. That may seem like a lot of time, but the longer you wait to get started, the more difficult it becomes to build a strong case. Evidence may deteriorate or become harder to find over time, witnesses could forget what they saw, and failing to file a claim within the legal deadline will end your chances at a successful recovery.
The trusted legal team at Farah & Farah is available 24/7 to help you get started on your Atlanta car accident claim. We’ll help you gather all relevant evidence, create strong arguments to support your case, and ensure your claim is filed on time.
