Company car crashes raise serious legal stakes. In Georgia, employers can be held liable for injuries their drivers cause, but only when the driver was acting within the scope of employment. Personal detours and reckless driving can shift or share liability between driver and company. Victims need to move fast to uncover records, challenge corporate defenses, and demand accountability.

Company vehicles have an edge: they wear the name of a business. For a victim, that edge should mean access to deeper pockets and accountability. Many people assume that if a driver works for a company, the company pays for every wreck that driver causes. Georgia law turns on facts, not assumptions.

Summary:

In Georgia, injury claims involving minors, especially those related to bullying, require court oversight, parental involvement, and a careful distinction between the child’s and parents’ legal rights. Settlements over $25,000 demand judicial approval, and long-term damages like emotional trauma must be documented and fought for. 

One out of every five students has been bullied. It should be zero, but people tend to brush it off as “character development.” Kids don’t bounce back the way people pretend they do. A few cruel words turn into daily torment. A push in the hallway turns into a hospital visit. Sometimes the damage is visible. More often, it isn’t. And when the adults responsible for protecting them fail, parents are left to pick up the pieces.

Summary:

Dashcam footage can make or break a personal injury case. It provides undeniable proof, but that proof can help or hurt depending on what it shows. Strong video can pressure insurers into fair settlements; weak or misleading footage can be used to reduce your claim. Before you share any dashcam video, speak with an attorney who knows how to use it to your advantage.

That tiny lens on your windshield may be the best witness you ever have (or the most damaging). It doesn’t blink. It doesn’t flinch. And it doesn’t forget.

Saying that Atlanta has a “traffic issue” is an understatement. Honking horns and middle fingers when someone cuts across three lanes and slams on their brakes is a daily occurance. Sometimes, we even brace for impact, waiting to hear the crunch of metal. Was it just a mistake or a product of poor impulse control?

Road rage crashes are different. They don’t follow the usual script, and they don’t end with an insurance adjuster cutting a check and moving on. When aggression causes harm, Georgia law takes a harder line. So should you.

When Aggression Crosses the Line

You’re hurt. Or your car’s totaled. Maybe both. You’re still shaken, trying to figure out what’s next, and then your phone rings. It’s an insurance adjuster, wanting to “ask a few questions.” They’ll sound friendly. Calm. Helpful. But remember: they are not calling to help you. They’re calling to help the company that signs their checks.

You Don’t Owe Them a Conversation

You can say no. You can let it go to voicemail. You can schedule it later or never. You’re not obligated to speak with them the moment they reach out. If you’ve got a lawyer, your answer is simple: “Please direct all questions to my attorney.”

If you’ve been injured in Georgia and are considering a lawsuit, the rules just changed—and not in your favor. On April 21, 2025, Governor Brian Kemp signed two sweeping tort reform bills into law. These laws tilt the scales toward corporations and insurers, making it harder for victims to get justice. If you don’t act fast and smart, you could lose your chance to recover what you deserve.

Medical Bills

Under the new law, juries can now see only the actual amounts paid for your medical care—not the full amounts billed. This change benefits insurance companies and defendants by reducing the damages they owe. If your hospital billed $100,000 but your insurer paid $20,000, the jury sees only the $20,000. This approach ignores the true cost of your care and the burden you bear.

There’s a disturbing quiet that follows a bus crash. Metal twisted, people dazed, the air thick with shock. What comes next, however, when the sirens fade, is where the real fight begins. If you’ve been hurt, you’re up against more than just physical recovery. You’re facing insurance companies, government red tape, and a system that would rather ignore your pain than pay what’s owed. That’s not justice. That’s theft with a clipboard.

Who’s on the Hook When a Bus Wrecks

Multiple parties can be legally responsible, and it’s rarely just the driver. Private charter companies, government-run transit systems, even third-party maintenance contractors may share the blame. Sometimes another motorist triggers the wreck. Other times, it’s a bus company that pushed a vehicle back onto the road without fixing known issues.
