We Handle the Cases that Matter Most
If you are searching for a car accident attorney in Atlanta, Georgia, you need someone who understands exactly what’s at stake and exactly how insurance companies will try to minimize your claim. With over a decade exclusively on the plaintiffs’ side, we know the tactics insurers use and we know how to counter them.
Car Accident Injuries in Atlanta
Atlanta’s highways are among the most congested in the country. From rush hour on 1-285 to multi-car collisions on I-75 and 1-20, accidents happen every day and the consequences can follow you for years. Whether your crash involved a distracted driver, a red light runner, or an uninsured motorist, The Hay Law Group is ready to step in.
We handle claims involving:
- Rear-end and head-on collisions
- Distracted and impaired driving accidents
- Intersection and red light violations
- Uninsured and underinsured motorist claims
- Hit-and-run accidents
Trucking & Commercial Vehicle Accidents in Georgia
Georgia’s position as a major freight corridor means 18-wheelers and commercial vehicles are a constant presence on I-75,1-85, and the connector through Atlanta. When a truck accident occurs, the consequences are often catastrophic and so is the legal complexity. Trucking companies carry powerful legal teams and multiple layers of insurance coverage. You need an attorney who matches that firepower.
We handle claims involving:
- 18-wheelers and semi-trucks
- Delivery vehicles and box trucks
- Driver fatigue and Hours of Service violations
- Overloaded or improperly secured cargo
- Driver negligence and inadequate training
- Trucking company and fleet liability
Rideshare Accident Injuries (Uber & Lyft) in Atlanta
Atlanta is one of the most active rideshare markets in the Southeast. When a crash involves an Uber or Lyft driver, multiple insurance policies may be in play and which one applies depends entirely on what the driver was doing at the moment of impact. Insurance companies use this complexity to delay and deny claims. We cut through it.
Georgia law and rideshare company policies divide coverage into three distinct periods:
- Period 1 (App off): Only the driver’s personal auto insurance applies. Coverage is often limited and may not be enough to cover serious injuries.
- Period 2 (App on, no ride accepted): A contingency policy from Uber or Lyft provides limited liability coverage ($50,000 per person/ $100,000 per accident in Georgia).
- Period 3 (En route or actively transporting a passenger): Uber and Lyft’s full $1 million commercial liability policy applies.
Identifying which period was active at the moment of your crash and holding the right parties accountable is exactly where these companies create confusion. We’ve done it before.
We handle claims involving:
- Passengers injured in Uber or Lyft vehicles
- Drivers and pedestrians struck by rideshare vehicles
- Accidents during active trips vs. app-on waiting periods
- Rideshare company insurance coverage disputes
- Underinsured rideshare driver claims
- Multi-party liability involving the TNC and driver
Pedestrian Accident Injuries in Atlanta
Atlanta’s growth has put more people on foot in Midtown, Downtown, Old Fourth Ward, and across the BeltLine and pedestrian accidents have surged alongside that growth. When a driver strikes a pedestrian, the injuries are almost always severe. Medical bills accumulate fast. The insurance company for the at-fault driver will move quickly to minimize their exposure. You need an attorney who moves just as fast.
We handle claims involving:
- Pedestrians struck at crosswalks and intersections
- Hit-and-run pedestrian accidents
- Accidents involving distracted or impaired drivers
- Injuries on the Atlanta BeltLine and shared-use paths
- Accidents in parking lots and private property
- Wrongful death arising from pedestrian collisions
