Personal Injury — Savannah, Georgia
Chris Rouse handles personal injury cases on contingency. If someone else's carelessness hurt you, you shouldn't have to pay to hold them accountable.
What We Handle
Why It Matters
Insurance adjusters work to minimize payouts. An attorney who knows tort law changes the dynamic of every conversation.
Medical bills are only part of it. Lost wages, future care costs, pain and suffering — a proper claim accounts for everything.
Most cases settle. But the willingness to go to trial matters — insurance companies settle more favorably when they know your lawyer will actually fight.
Common Questions
Nothing out of pocket. Personal injury representation is contingency-based — we're paid a percentage of what we recover. If there's no recovery, there's no fee.
Generally, Georgia's statute of limitations for personal injury is two years from the date of injury. There are exceptions — some shorter, some longer — depending on the situation. Don't wait to find out which applies to you.
Be very careful. Insurance adjusters are trained to minimize claims. Anything you say can be used to reduce your recovery. Consulting an attorney before giving a recorded statement is almost always the right move.
Georgia follows a modified comparative fault rule. As long as you are less than 50% responsible, you can still recover — though your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault. We can evaluate how this applies to your situation.
