Key Facts About Georgia Personal Injury Law
Statute of Limitations
Georgia generally allows two years from the date of injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. Missing this deadline bars your claim entirely — do not wait.
Comparative Fault (O.C.G.A. § 51-11-7)
Georgia follows a modified comparative fault rule. You can recover compensation as long as you were less than 50% at fault, but your recovery is reduced by your percentage of responsibility.
At-Fault State
Georgia is an at-fault (tort) state. You pursue the at-fault driver's insurance directly — there is no mandatory PIP no-fault threshold.
Available Damages
Economic damages (medical bills, lost wages, property damage) and non-economic damages (pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of consortium). Punitive damages may be available in cases of egregious misconduct.
