Is there a Time Limit for Filing an Injury Claim?
While the general rule in Georgia is that you have two years to file a personal injury claim, some exceptions might apply to your situation.
These can include, but are not limited to:
- Minors: If the injured party was under 18 at the time of the accident, the statute of limitations may be extended.
- Mental incapacity: If the injured person was mentally incompetent at the time of the injury, the clock on the statute of limitations may be paused until they regain competency.
- Fraud or concealment: If the responsible party concealed the cause of the injury or engaged in fraud, the statute of limitations might be extended from the date of discovery of the injury or fraud.
It's important to remember that these are just a few examples, and determining if an exception applies to your case can be complex.
How Do I Know If I Have a Personal Injury Case?
To have a strong personal injury case in Georgia, you generally need to show that someone else was careless or reckless and that their actions directly caused you harm.
If you think this describes your situation, reach out to Van Sant Law today. We offer free consultations where we can discuss your specific circumstances and help you understand your legal options.

My attorney, David Van Sant and his law firm were outstanding in handling my personal injury case. I was out of work for a considerable amount of time due to an automobile accident and Mr. Van Sant and his entire team were always kind, professional, knowledgeable and especially available. This law firm did their absolute best to answer and return calls and at no time did I ever feel like just a number or stranger. My experience with Mr. Van Sant and his law firm (from beginning to end), were very positive as well as favorable.

I Was in a Car Accident in Duluth. What Should I Do Now?
- Prioritize your well-being: Seek medical attention immediately, even if you feel uninjured. Hidden injuries may surface later, and prompt care is vital for both your health and a potential claim.
- Report the incident: Contact the police and file an official report. This report will document essential details about the accident, serving as valuable evidence in your case.
- Collect crucial evidence: If possible, document the scene thoroughly. Take photos of vehicle damage, the accident scene, and any traffic signals or signs. Gather contact information from witnesses.
- Contact your insurance company: It's important to inform your insurance company about the accident as soon as possible. However, keep your communication brief and stick to the basic facts. Avoid discussing details about fault or the extent of your injuries until you've consulted with an attorney. Remember, insurance companies are in the business of minimizing payouts, so providing too much information upfront could potentially harm your claim.
