Experienced Southern Georgia Truck Accident Attorneys
Georgia ranks in the top five states for truck accidents on an annual basis behind California, Texas and Florida.

In 2003, Georgia ranked fourth nationally with 2,277 truck accidents that killed 208 people. You don't have to be a physics student to understand that a tractor-trailer weighing up to 80,000 pounds traveling at 55 mph takes a long time to stop in an emergency. That much weight traveling at that rate of speed can result in devastating and fatal injuries if it collides with a passenger vehicle weighing only a few thousand pounds. The Southern Georgia truck accident lawyers at our firm are dedicated to helping people who have been injured in truck accidents. If you or a close family member has been injured in a trucking accident, we may be able to help.

Aggressive Southern Georgia Truck Accident Lawyers Helping Injured People and Families
Nationally, large 18-wheelers are involved in nine percent of all fatal automobile crashes. Of the 58,512 fatal motor vehicle accidents in 2003, 4,669 involved these big rigs, and on average, large trucks are far more likely to be in fatal multi-vehicle accidents than passenger cars. Trucking accidents can be caused by a wide range of factors such as talking and texting on cell phones, driver fatigue, driving too fast for conditions and others. But when they occur and a truck collides with a passenger vehicle of any kind, the occupants of the car often suffer devastating injuries such as these:
- Paralysis
- Crushed and severed limbs
- Paraplegia
- Quadriplegia
- Brain injuries
- Spine injuries
- Ruptured internal organs
- Other horrific injuries that require lengthy and expensive medical treatment
