Tenacious Representation for Motor Vehicle Collisions

Collisions on Georgia roadways cause severe injuries, expensive hospital bills, and lost income. Insurers move quickly to minimize settlements.

• High-impact car accident claims involving rear-end crashes, intersection T-bones, and rollover collisions
• Commercial tractor-trailer wrecks involving driver fatigue, weight violations, and negligent fleet maintenance
• Motorcycle accident cases defending injured riders against unjust stereotypes and fighting for full coverage
• Catastrophic injury claims involving traumatic brain injury, spinal fractures, and severe burn trauma

Complex Medical Malpractice and Nursing Home Abuse

When healthcare providers violate accepted medical standards, patients suffer preventable, life-altering consequences. Nelson and Smith handles intricate medical malpractice lawsuits involving surgical errors, misdiagnoses, medication mistakes, and birth injuries. In addition, the firm takes a forceful stand against nursing home negligence and elder abuse, protecting vulnerable residents who have experienced medication errors, bedsores, fall trauma, or chronic neglect in care facilities.

Georgia Workers' Compensation and Workplace Injury Claims

Suffering an injury on a job site can instantly jeopardize your household's financial stability. The firm's dedicated workers' compensation lawyers guide injured workers through every step of Georgia's workers' compensation claims process. From filing initial notices and appealing denied benefits to securing authorized treating physicians and negotiating lump-sum settlements, the firm fights to ensure injured employees receive total medical coverage and fair weekly indemnity payments.

Premises Liability, Dog Bites, and Wrongful Death

Property owners have a clear legal obligation to keep their premises reasonably safe for visitors.
