When you’re hurt in a car accident caused by another driver’s negligence, you need someone to handle the investigation, insurance negotiations, and legal paperwork so you can focus on healing. Slam Dunk Attorney represents injured drivers, passengers, and pedestrians across Buford, Marietta, and the greater Atlanta area.
What a Car Accident Lawyer Does for You
A car accident lawyer investigates the crash, gathers evidence, and handles all communication with insurance companies on your behalf. We look into how the accident happened and who may be responsible, and we discuss possible next steps with you, which may include negotiations or, if needed, litigation, depending on the facts of your case. We also manage deadlines, paperwork, and legal procedures so you can focus on recovery instead of navigating the legal system alone.
Who We Represent
We represent drivers injured in collisions caused by another driver’s negligence, passengers hurt in accidents they did not cause, people injured by uninsured or underinsured drivers, those with serious injuries requiring ongoing medical care, and anyone unsure whether they have a valid claim. If you were in a car accident in Buford, Marietta, or anywhere in Georgia and you didn’t cause it, we want to hear from you.
What’s Included in Our Car Accident Service
Our car accident representation includes a free initial consultation to review your accident and injuries, investigation of the crash scene and vehicle damage, review of police reports and witness accounts, and coordination with medical providers to document your injuries. We also negotiate with the at-fault driver’s insurance company, provide representation in settlement discussions or litigation, and help clients keep track of their medical records and bills, while decisions about medical treatment should always follow the advice of your own doctors.
How the Process Works
Step 1: Free Consultation
You describe the accident, your injuries, and your current situation. We listen, ask questions, and explain your options with no obligation.
Step 2: Investigation
We gather police reports, medical records, photos, and witness statements to help document how the accident happened and the care you have received.
Step 3: Demand Letter
We prepare a detailed claim and send it to the at-fault driver’s insurance company, outlining the facts of the accident and the injuries you reported.
Step 4: Negotiation
We communicate with the insurer about your claim. Outcomes depend on the facts of each case.
Step 5: Settlement or Trial
If a settlement is reached, we can help with the related paperwork. If not, we prepare for trial and represent you in court.
Step 6: Recovery
Whether any recovery is available depends on the facts of your case and cannot be predicted in advance.
Timeline: What to Expect
- Consultation to case decision: 1–2 weeks
- Investigation phase: 4–8 weeks (longer if injuries are still developing)
- Settlement negotiation: 2–6 months (varies by insurer and case complexity)
- Trial preparation (if needed): 6–12 months or more
We do not rush settlements. Whether a recovery is available depends on the facts of your case, and speed is only one consideration.

Common Questions About Car Accident Claims
Do I have a case?
If another driver’s negligence caused your accident and you suffered injury or property damage, whether you have a claim depends on the facts of your situation. The only way to know is to discuss it with us.
How much is my case worth?
Every accident is different. Every case depends on its own facts, and we can discuss your situation during your free, confidential consultation.
What if I was partially at fault?
O.C.G.A. § 51-12-33 (Quynn v. Hulsey, 310 Ga. 473 (2020)) addresses how damages may be reduced when a plaintiff is partly at fault, and how it applies depends on the facts of each case and on any exceptions that may apply. Consult a lawyer about your own situation. How this applies depends on the facts of each case, and exceptions may apply, so consult a lawyer about your own situation. How this rule applies depends on the facts of each case and on any applicable exceptions, so a lawyer can explain how it may apply to your own situation. We investigate to determine fault and protect your rights.
How long do I have to file a claim?
Georgia law generally sets a two-year time limit for filing a lawsuit for personal injuries (O.C.G.A. § 9-3-33; Cameron v. JMP Pizza, Inc. (2026)), but exceptions may apply and the deadline depends on the facts of your case. Consult a lawyer about your own situation. To discuss your situation, you can call us for a free, confidential initial consultation, with no obligation to continue.
Will my case go to trial?
Whether a claim resolves without trial depends on the facts of each case. We communicate with the insurer about your claim, and we are prepared to take your case to court if needed.
What about my medical bills and lost wages?
We pursue compensation for all your economic damages, including medical treatment, hospital stays, surgery, physical therapy, lost income, and vehicle repair or replacement.
Do I pay anything upfront?
Fee terms are explained in the written fee agreement. You may be responsible for court costs and case expenses; we discuss this clearly before you hire us.
