The personal injury lawyers of Wells and McElwee, P.C., in Athens, Georgia, provide highly personalized and committed client service for car accident victims. We work closely with every client to make sure that they are getting the help they need – not only legal advice, but also assistance with medical, financial, personal, and insurance coverage problems. Our firm’s strong tradition of client service can help you meet all of the challenges that a serious auto wreck might present.
There’s a world of difference between a car accident and a truck accident when it comes time to sue the driver at fault. The severity of the injuries that typically result from a trucking wreck usually means that you won’t be looking at a $30,000 or $75,000 claim – you might need hundreds of thousands to support your family through a long recovery, or millions to help you adapt to a permanent disability.
It’s an unfortunate fact that in the aftermath of a deadly accident, the insurance company for the party responsible for the accidental death is preparing its defense against your future wrongful death claims while you’re still coming to grips with the shock of your loss. At the Athens law firm of Wells and McElwee, P.C., our attorneys are completely committed to helping your family through a difficult time while doing everything possible to protect your legal and financial interests.
At the law firm of Wells and McElwee, P.C., our lawyers are ready to accept the challenge of seeking damages for people injured in slip-and-fall accidents. These can be tough cases. Sometimes it’s hard to prove damages for soft tissue injuries to knees, shoulders, or other joints. Sometimes it’s hard to tell whether the plaintiff or the defendant was in the better position to spot the hazard and avoid the accident.
