When a Truck Hits You, the Stakes Are Higher. So Is Our Fight.
If you were injured in a truck accident, you’re up against more than just a driver. You’re up against a trucking company, their insurer, and their legal team.
Council & Associates levels the playing field and fights to get Georgia families the justice they deserve.

A trucking company, their insurance adjuster, or their attorney has already reached out to you.

Why Act Immediately?
Truck accident cases are fundamentally different from typical car accident cases — and the clock starts ticking the moment the crash happens.
● Trucking companies send investigators to the scene immediately. They are already building their defense while you’re still recovering. You need someone in your corner just as fast.
● Critical evidence disappears quickly. Black box data, driver logs, maintenance records, and dashcam footage can be erased, overwritten, or lost — often within days.
● Your injuries may be severe. The sheer size and weight of commercial trucks means crashes often result in catastrophic injuries. You deserve maximum compensation — not a rushed settlement that doesn’t cover your future needs.

Truck Accident Case FAQs
Clear answers to help you understand your rights and options.
-
Truck accident cases are significantly more complex. Commercial trucks are subject to federal and state regulations — including hours-of-service rules, weight limits, and mandatory maintenance schedules — and violations of these rules can be critical to your case. There are also often multiple liable parties beyond just the driver, including the trucking company, a cargo loading company, or a parts manufacturer. These cases require a deeper investigation and a legal team that understands the trucking industry.
-
If a commercial truck driver or trucking company’s negligence contributed to your accident and you suffered injuries or losses as a result, you very likely have a claim. Common causes of truck accidents include driver fatigue, distracted driving, improper loading, inadequate maintenance, and violations of federal safety regulations. A free consultation will help you understand exactly where you stand.
-
Do not give a recorded statement, do not accept any offer, and do not sign anything — no matter how reasonable it sounds. Trucking companies and their insurers move fast after an accident specifically to limit their exposure before you fully understand your damages. One call to us first can make an enormous difference in what you ultimately recover.
-
Liability in a truck accident case can extend well beyond the driver. Depending on the circumstances, the trucking company, a cargo loading or shipping company, a truck manufacturer or parts supplier, or a third-party maintenance contractor may all share responsibility. Part of what we do is conduct a thorough investigation to identify every party whose negligence contributed to your crash — because every liable party is a potential source of compensation.
-
Truck accidents frequently result in serious, life-altering injuries, and the compensation available reflects that. You may be entitled to recover current and future medical expenses, lost wages and loss of future earning capacity, pain and suffering, emotional distress, permanent disability or disfigurement, and property damage. In cases involving especially reckless conduct — such as a driver who was hours over their legal driving limit — punitive damages may also be available.
-
Georgia’s modified comparative negligence law means you can still recover compensation even if you share some of the fault, as long as you were less than 50% responsible. Don’t assume the trucking company’s version of events is accurate — their investigators are trained to shift blame. Let us conduct our own independent investigation before you accept any responsibility.
-
Nothing upfront, and nothing out of pocket. We work on a contingency fee basis, meaning we only get paid if we win your case. There are no hidden fees and no financial risk to you. If we don’t recover for you, you owe us nothing. Every case is unique, but you can read more of our case results here.
