Understanding Personal Injury Laws in Georgia
Personal injury cases generally require proving negligence and causation.
Key Georgia rules include:
- Statute of limitations: Most personal injury claims must be filed within two years of the accident date.
- Modified comparative negligence: Recovery may be reduced if you share fault, and you may be barred from recovery if your fault reaches the legal threshold.
- Damages: Compensation may include medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other related losses.
In Cobb County, Marietta injury lawsuits are commonly handled in Cobb County State Court or Cobb County Superior Court, each with its own procedures and scheduling.
