Marietta Car Accident Attorneys
Trusted Legal Help for Auto Accident Victims in Marietta, GA
Marrietta is much more than just a suburb of Atlanta. One indicator of what this city in Georgia is like to experience is its 2011 CNN Money designation as one of the top 25 places in the U.S. to retire. Attractions like the Strand Theatre and the Marietta Gone with the Wind Museum are examples of what kind of adventures await those with the initiative to explore the city.
Traffic on the North and South Marietta Parkway can get intense, as can the I-75 traffic leading to and from Atlanta. Car accidents can be particularly catastrophic on high-speed highways like these. These risks might be on the back of your mind every time you travel by car. An injury accident, however, will immediately jolt them to the front of your mind in most distressing fashion.
A serious accident in indignity enough. When you realize that your pain was all caused by someone else’s misconduct, indignity typically matures into anger – and rightfully so. You have been wronged, and you owe it to yourself to right that wrong. Georgia personal injury law can help you do so by giving you a legal claim for compensation.
Claims do not enforce themselves, however – normally it takes a skilled and experienced personal injury lawyer to do that, at least if you insist on receiving your claims’ full value. At Van Sant Law, we convert car accident claims into cash for well over 90 percent of our clients. We invite you to put us to work so that you can focus on recovering from your injury.

Georgia Car Accident Laws
Navigating the legal aftermath of a car accident in Georgia requires understanding a few key state laws:
- Fault-Based System: Georgia is an at-fault state, meaning the driver who caused the accident is liable for damages.
- Comparative Negligence Rule: Under Georgia law, you can recover damages even if you are partially at fault—as long as you are less than 50% responsible. Your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault.
- Statute of Limitations: You generally have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. Failing to file within this window could result in your claim being dismissed.
- Minimum Insurance Requirements: Georgia drivers must carry liability insurance covering at least $25,000 per person and $50,000 per accident for bodily injury, and $25,000 for property damage.
