Gwinnett County Car Accident Lawyer

Is there a car accident lawyer near me in Gwinnett County?

Yes. Both of The Scott Pryor Law Group's offices are in Gwinnett County, the headquarters in Peachtree Corners and the office in downtown Lawrenceville, and the firm takes car accident cases from across the county. Choose whichever office is closer to home or work, or start by phone. Phones are answered 24/7.

We represent people hurt in crashes in Lawrenceville, Duluth, Suwanee, Buford, Norcross, Snellville and the communities around them. The free consultation and the fee terms are the same wherever in the county you live.

Picking an office is a matter of convenience. If you live or work closer to Peachtree Corners, meet us at the headquarters. If downtown Lawrenceville is easier, meet us there. One phone number reaches both, so you never have to work out which office to call.

You do not have to come in at all to get started. If you are hurt, without a car or juggling medical appointments, we can take the details by phone and set up a meeting later, at whichever office you choose.

Who is at fault in a Gwinnett County intersection crash?

Fault in an intersection crash usually comes down to who ran the light, ignored a stop sign or failed to yield. The Scott Pryor Law Group investigates Gwinnett County car accidents at intersections to prove which driver that was, because the two accounts may not match and the insurer may try to shift blame onto you.

Many of these are T-bone crashes, where the front of one car strikes the side of another. Side-impact collisions commonly cause separated joints, and they can also cause broken bones and concussions.

Shared fault comes up often in these cases. If you are less than 50% at fault, you can still recover damages, reduced by your percentage of fault. O.C.G.A. § 51-12-33 An insurer may claim you were speeding into the intersection or turned without looking, and every share of blame it assigns to you lowers what it offers.

We answer with evidence. That can include the police report and any ticket the officer wrote, traffic camera or business video that caught the crash, statements from people who saw the crash and, when the facts call for it, an accident reconstruction expert. The sooner we start, the more of that evidence is still there.

If the other car was an Uber or Lyft, different insurance questions come up. See our Georgia rideshare accident page.

Is a Gwinnett County car accident a no-fault claim?

No. Georgia follows an at-fault system: whoever caused the crash is liable. O.C.G.A. § 51-1-6 The Scott Pryor Law Group's Georgia car accident page explains what that means for your claim and how fault can be shared.
