Latonya W.
Highly Responsive
“I loved the one-to-one customer/client focus. Your calls are not routed to a receptionist or a paralegal, which I really loved! Whenever I called, I either spoke directly to Attorney Brauns, left a voicemail message, or emailed his office with a question and or concern and I always received a response in a relatively, timely manner.”

I appreciate you guys for everything you did for me. Thank you.”

Understanding Georgia’s Statute of Limitations
In Georgia, you have a limited time to file a personal injury lawsuit—usually two years from the date of the injury. This period can go by quickly, especially when dealing with insurance negotiations and gathering evidence. Contacting a personal injury lawyer as soon as possible ensures you meet all deadlines and have a strong case.
There are certain situations where the statute of limitations may be extended, paused, or “tolled.” Here are some common exceptions:
- Minors and Incapacitated Persons: If the injured person is a minor (under 18) or legally incapacitated at the time of the injury, the statute of limitations may be tolled. For minors, the statute of limitations typically begins on their 18th birthday, giving them until their 20th birthday to file a claim. For incapacitated persons, the statute of limitations may be tolled until they are deemed legally competent.
- Fraudulent Concealment: If the defendant deliberately concealed their wrongdoing or the injury, the statute of limitations may be tolled until the injury is discovered or reasonably should have been discovered. This is often applicable in cases involving medical malpractice or product liability.
- Criminal Proceedings: In some cases, if a criminal case is pending related to the same incident (such as a DUI accident), the statute of limitations for the personal injury claim may be paused until the criminal case is resolved.
- Government Entities: For claims against the State of Georgia or its agencies, you must file a notice of claim within 12 months of the injury date.
Steps to Take After an Accident
If you’ve been in an accident, follow these steps to protect your rights:
- Call 911: Ensure an accident report is filed, which can be crucial evidence later.
- See a Doctor: Document your injuries and follow all prescribed treatments.
- Gather Evidence: Collect photos, videos, witness information, and obtain the accident report.
- Keep Records: Maintain records of medical treatments, expenses, and a personal journal of your recovery.
- Contact an Attorney: Let an experienced personal injury lawyer handle the legal complexities while you focus on healing.
