Once you’ve entrusted us with your case, we will launch a detailed investigation. Our team of Atlanta personal injury lawyers collects and analyzes police reports, medical records, and witness statements, preserving this crucial evidence to build a robust case supporting your claim.

Amazing team! I learned of them through a referral after getting into my first ever serious car wreck. I had no clue what to do and I'm so thankful I heard about Weatherby Law firm. They walked me through the process and answered any and all questions that I had. I was able to just let them handle all of the legal aspects and deal with the medical companies on my behalf. Such a HUGE weight off my shoulders. My mom also retained them and loves them as well. Alex and Sarah were great at checking in and letting us know where we were in the process. They're adept at dealing with insurance adjusters and lien holders. If I ever need personal injury help again (which I hope not lol but if I do) I'm definitely coming back to them. And I'll be recommending them to anyone else I know that needs personal injury representation. Thanks again y'all!

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What damages can an Atlanta personal injury lawyer recover for me?

    In personal injury cases, victims may be eligible for the following types of compensation.

    1. Property Damage: This covers the cost of repairing or replacing any other personal property damaged in the accident.
    2. Medical Expenses: All reasonable medical bills incurred as a result of the accident that caused your injuries, including current treatments and estimated future medical costs.
    3. Lost Wages: Compensation for any time missed from work due to the accident, including decreased earning capacity if the injury impacts your ability to work in the future.
    4. Pain and Suffering: This non-economic damage is left to the “enlightened conscience of the jury” and often constitutes the largest portion of the award. It compensates for physical pain, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life.
    5. Punitive Damages: In cases involving extreme negligence or intentional misconduct, the court may award punitive damages to punish the at-fault party and deter similar behavior in the future.

  • How do I know if I have a personal injury case in Atlanta?

    You might think a fender bender or a slip and fall isn’t a big deal, but even small accidents can have unforeseen complications. You may wake up with a sore back a few days later, or the other person might change their story about what happened. For this reason, it’s always a wise idea to chat with a personal injury attorney — even for seemingly minor incidents. We can help you understand your options and make sure you’re not struggling alone if things get more complicated down the road.

    Many personal injury cases are settled out of court, and Weatherby Law will advise the best course of action based on your case’s specifics. We only recommend a trial if we’re confident in a win. The bottom line? Our goal is to respect your recovery process by securing the largest possible settlement without the added time and expense of a trial.

  • How much time do I have to file an injury case in Atlanta?

    The statute of limitations for filing a personal injury claim is two years in the state of Georgia. Consult with Weatherby Law Firm to make sure there aren’t any exceptions in your case and to meet all timelines relevant to your case.

  • How much will it cost to hire an Atlanta personal injury lawyer?

    At Weatherby Law, our services are free unless we win. There are no upfront costs. Our Atlanta personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, which means that there is no fee unless we recover something for you in your personal injury case. At that point, an agreed-upon percentage goes to the firm.

  • How much do most personal injury cases settle for?

    The value of your case is influenced by a variety of factors including the extent of economic and non-economic damages, your percentage of fault, and the integrity of the evidence used to substantiate your account of the crash.

    As the most resourceful personal injury lawyer in Atlanta, it is Weatherby Law’s  job to maximize your settlement by collecting and preserving this evidence, which might include:

    • Information exchanged at the accident scene
    • Police reports and any issued tickets
    • Photographs of damages and the accident scene
    • Statements given to insurance companies
    • Medical records and bills
    • Expert testimony

  • What if I am partly at fault for my injury?

    Georgia follows what’s called a “modified comparative fault” rule. This means that as long as you’re less than 50% responsible, you can still recover damages. However, your compensation might be reduced proportionally based on your share of the fault. At Weatherby Law, we will make every effort to establish fault — partial or full — and ensure that compensation is awarded accordingly.

  • What questions can I expect in the initial interview?

    Scheduling a free case evaluation is your chance to meet your lawyer and evaluate how they treat you. How they communicate with you is a telling indicator of how they will handle your case. 

    During this initial interview, they will ask questions aimed at determining negligence. The types of questions they will ask may include:

    • How badly were you injured?
    • Did your injuries prevent you from working?
    • How much time did you require away from work?
    • Did you receive medical treatment, and how much did your care cost?
    • Will you require treatment in the future?
    • Were you working when your injury occurred?
