Personal Injury

At James Bruce Richardson, P.C., we assist people throughout the Atlanta, Georgia area who have suffered injuries in car accidents, trucking accidents, and at work. We have the knowledge, experience and advocacy skills to successfully represent clients who have suffered serious injuries, including head and spinal cord injuries, and we represent clients who have lost a loved one in wrongful death actions. We also assist victims of workplace injuries in workers' compensation claims.

Auto Accidents

Accidents involving automobiles are the leading cause of personal injury in the United States. While auto accidents may seem commonplace, they often involve complex medical and legal issues. After trying numerous cases and working with many medical experts, Mr. Richardson has developed a thorough understanding of the complexities of medical conditions involved in cases of spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury, other serious injuries and wrongful death matters.

Trucking Accidents

The size of commercial trucks unfortunately means that many accidents involving these commercial vehicles often result in serious injuries or death. It is a common misconception that trucking accident cases are simply accidents involving a larger vehicle; truck accident cases are complex and often require consultation with experts. Additionally, trucking accident cases involve an interplay between federal and state regulations governing trucking companies and their drivers. Mr. Richardson has a thorough understanding of these unique laws and regulations, and has significant experience in litigating trucking accident cases.

Workers' Compensation

If you suffered an injury at work, you are most likely eligible for benefits under your employer's workers' compensation insurance. In Georgia, any employer that has more than three employees must maintain workers' compensation insurance. If you have suffered an injury at work, it is important that you notify your employer as soon as possible. We file claims on behalf of our clients and represent clients in hearings before the Georgia State Board of Workers' Compensation.

Consult Experienced Legal Representation

If you or a loved one has suffered an injury in a car or truck accident or at work, you may be entitled to recover damages including medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other incidental costs. It is important to hire an experienced attorney who knows how to effectively negotiate with insurance companies and has the ability to successfully try your case in court if the case does not settle prior to trial. We handle personal injury cases on a contingency fee basis, which means you do not pay us any fees unless we recover money for you.
