Georgia Law — What East Point Injury Victims Need to Know
Two-Year Statute of Limitations — O.C.G.A. § 9-3-33
Georgia gives you two years from the date of your injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. Missing this deadline permanently eliminates your right to compensation. Contact a East Point personal injury attorney as soon as possible after your injury.
Modified Comparative Fault — O.C.G.A. § 51-12-33
Georgia allows you to recover damages as long as you are less than 50% at fault. Your recovery is reduced proportionally — but you are not barred from compensation. Insurers try to inflate your fault percentage to reduce their payout. Your attorney fights to keep that number accurate.
