Focus Practice Areas

Our injury attorneys have extensive experience in the following practice areas:

Car Accidents
○ Car accidents can result in devastating injuries and financial strain. We work tirelessly to hold negligent drivers accountable and recover the compensation you need to move forward.

Truck Accidents
○ Truck accidents often result in severe injuries due to the size and weight of commercial vehicles. Our team is skilled in handling the complexities of these cases, including dealing with trucking companies and their insurers.

Motorcycle Accidents
○ Motorcyclists are especially vulnerable on the road. If you’ve been injured in a motorcycle accident, our injury law firm will advocate aggressively on your behalf.

Pedestrian Accidents
○ Pedestrians are among the most vulnerable road users. If you or a loved one has been struck by a vehicle, we are dedicated to holding negligent parties responsible and helping you secure the compensation you deserve.

Bicycle Accidents
○ Bicyclists face unique risks on the road. Our experienced team is here to ensure that those responsible for your accident are held accountable, helping you recover physically, emotionally, and financially.

Dog Attacks
○ Georgia law requires dog owners to protect others in the public from an attack by a dangerous or vicious animal. Local governments, like cities and counties, have leash laws requiring dog owners not to let dogs run free. If you were attacked by a dog and suffered injury,  you may be entitled to compensation, in the form of medical bills, lost wages and pain and suffering from the dog owner and their insurance company .  These cases require a complete investigation by an experienced legal team because the fact the dog attacked you is not enough, in and of itself, to get you compensation.  Our legal team is committed to seeking justice and ensuring you get the money you deserve when you are attacked by a dog.  

Workers’ Compensation
○ Workplace injuries can disrupt your life and livelihood. We help injured workers navigate the complex workers’ compensation process to secure the benefits and support they are entitled to under the law.

Medical Malpractice
○ A Harvard study done in the last 10 years showed that medical errors are the 3rd leading cause of death in the United States.  Many of these errors also cause significant harms and injuries that do not end up in death.  Doctors, nurses and hospitals do not intentionally try to harm their patients.  However, errors happen on a regular basis because of understaffing, overworked employees and a focus more on profit than patient care.  If you suspect you or a loved one suffered injury or harm because of poor medical treatment, our experienced legal team is ready to speak with you about what happened.  These cases are very fact specific, but if we find evidence of malpractice, we will be ready to hold those responsible for the malpractice accountable for the harms and losses suffered.  

Nursing Home Neglect & Abuse
○ Elderly loved ones deserve respect and care. If you suspect nursing home neglect or abuse, our compassionate team is committed to seeking justice and ensuring the safety and dignity of vulnerable individuals.

Wrongful Death
○ The loss of a loved one due to someone else’s negligence is devastating. We provide compassionate representation to families pursuing wrongful death claims, working to secure compensation and accountability during this difficult time.

Understanding Pain and Suffering in Personal Injury Cases

One of the most significant components of a personal injury case is compensation for pain and suffering. These non-economic damages reflect the physical pain, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life caused by your injuries. As experienced injury attorneys, we build compelling cases to demonstrate the full extent of our clients’ suffering. Our meticulous approach includes:

• Gathering medical records and expert testimony to document the severity of your injuries.
• Presenting evidence of how your injuries have affected your daily life, work, and relationships.
• Negotiating fiercely with insurance companies or presenting a powerful case in court.

Steps to Take After an Injury in Tucker

If you’ve been injured due to someone else’s negligence, taking the right steps can strengthen your case and increase your chances of receiving fair compensation. Here’s what you should do:

1. Seek Medical Attention: Your health and safety are the top priority. Visit a doctor to document your injuries and receive necessary treatment.
2. Gather Evidence: Take photos of the accident scene, your injuries, and any property damage. Collect witness contact information if possible.
3. Avoid Speaking with Insurers: Insurance adjusters often seek to minimize payouts. Refer any communication to your Tucker personal injury lawyer.
4. Contact Dan Chapman & Associates: The sooner you reach out to our injury law firm, the sooner we can begin building your case.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Tucker, GA?

In Georgia, the statute of limitations for personal injury cases is typically two years from the date of the injury. However, certain exceptions may apply. Contact us promptly to ensure your claim is filed on time.

2. How much is my case worth?

The value of a personal injury case depends on various factors, including the severity of your injuries, the amount of your medical expenses and lost wages, and the extent and length of your pain and suffering. Our attorneys will provide a thorough evaluation of your case when we have all of the facts and evidence and will be able to estimate your case’s value.

3. What if I was partially at fault for the accident?

Georgia follows a modified comparative negligence rule, meaning you can still recover compensation if you’re less than 50% at fault. However, your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault.

3. What if the person who injured me has no insurance?  

If the person who was negligent and injured you has no liability insurance, there are other ways to recover for the harms and damages you suffered.  In some cases, we can find 3rd party insurance coverage to pay you compensation.  In car accidents, if the at-fault driver has no insurance and you have uninsured motorist insurance, or we can find it in your household, we can still get you a settlement.
