Personal Injury Cases

What does that mean. If you are reading this you have probably been injured and need help. All personal injury cases are handled on a free consultation basis. Simply give us as call to see if we are the right firm for you at 770.622.4700 or toll free at 877.622.9112. If it is during normal business hours ask for Stephen Fuller (ext. 106) or his assistant Haven Hix (ext. 108). You may also send an email at info@dfslaw.com.  While we don't man the phone 24 hours a day like the TV advertising firms do, we will call you back as soon as practicable and respond to emails as soon as possible.

Hiring a personal injury attorney should be done with care and not based on who has the best television advertisement. You should realize that top firms that handle the larger type personal injury cases do not man the phones 24/7. Top Personal Injury firms are selective in the cases they take and anyone with a serious injury or death situation should take care in how and when they obtain an attorney. Investigate and ask questions. You should hire an attorney with the experience necessary to handle your case and one that knows where the courtroom is as well as how to handle a jury should the need arise. There is no charge for the consultation and we will let you know if we can help you.

For your information, we have successfully handled more than a thousand cases involving a range of injury claims from catastrophic injuries, life-changing injuries, wrongful death and serious injury claims. We are fully prepared to deal with any insurance carrier, self-insured company or jurisdiction. We represent clients throughout the Nation and are engaged by attorneys nationally to act as local counsel in all the Georgia State and Federal Courts.

Our logo that we represent people and make a difference when it counts the most is very sincere. When people are injured, whether through physical injury or economic injury, or even killed, they have their friends and family. They need legal support and, rest assured, those at fault have big business, big government, insurance companies and large law firms behind them. What is an individual to do to obtain justice when such occurs?

It is the plaintiff's lawyer's responsibility to be the warrior for people. The plaintiff's lawyer is the great equalizer in seeking justice. Justice does not mean total annihilation of an entity, but justice means fairness and equity. In our society, justice most of the times in the courts equates to money. After all, it is the only thing that we can do to compensate for harm done. We cannot turn back the clocks. We cannot grow back limbs. We cannot bring people from the dead and we cannot come up with some miraculous cures. All we can do is provide money.

This goes to the very heart of corporate greed, big business, insurance companies and big government. While our country is great, it is built around the system of economics and greed. While capitalism may be a tremendous driving force for economic potential and prosperity, it is also a forum to run over the downtrodden and take advantage of those in need. That is when justice works its best and that is when a true lawyer arises to the occasion.

Plaintiff's lawyers have been the central reason our society, cars and all products to be safer, for hospitals and the medical profession to be more careful and for governments to stand down. It is those Plaintiff's lawyers who carry the sword for our civil liberties and freedom and protection that we hold so dearly in this country. -Top-
