How Much Does it Cost to Hire a Bicycle Accident Lawyer in Sandy Springs?

Too many accident victims put off contacting a bicycle accident lawyer because they worry that they won’t be able to afford legal representation. At the Hines Law Firm, our bicycle accident lawyers work on a contingency fee basis. With this type of payment arrangement, you will pay no upfront costs and you will owe nothing unless your case is successful. A contingency fee payment arrangement allows accident victims to obtain experienced legal guidance and support as soon as possible after an accident, increasing their chances of recovering a higher settlement amount.

What is the Statute Of Limitations in Georgia?

You will have two years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit and pursue compensation in court. If you fail to file a lawsuit within this time frame, your case may be dismissed and you will be unable to recover any compensation for your accident-related losses.
