After the accident
You are sore, your car is somewhere you did not put it, and an adjuster has already left a voicemail. They sound friendly. They want a quick recorded statement and a signature, and they would like it done today. Meanwhile you are wondering how you will pay for a scan and whether you can work on Monday. None of that is your fault.
Canton is home. Our firm is headquartered here in Cherokee County, and most injury cases we see start with a crash on I-575, Riverstone Parkway, Highway 20, or Highway 140, or a fall at a business along the Riverstone corridor. When you call, you speak with someone who knows these roads and the Cherokee County courts.

Free case reviewDeadlines in Cherokee County
Most Georgia injury claims must be filed within two years. But when a city, county, or state agency is responsible, you must send a formal written notice called an ante litem notice long before that, in some cases within six months. Send it late and you can lose the right to recover, however badly you were hurt.
