Experienced Albany Distracted Driver Accidents Attorney
Georgia’s roads demand complete attention from motorists, yet distracted driving continues to plague Albany and Southwest Georgia communities. The state’s Hands-Free law aims to reduce these incidents, yet distracted driving collisions occur frequently, with devastating results.
I am the founding lawyer of Patrick Flynn, Attorney at Law, and have spent over 25 years serving accident victims throughout Albany and Southwest Georgia. My practice is dedicated to securing just compensation for those injured by another’s negligence. From car accidents to other personal injury cases, my goal is to help clients like you rebuild life after traumatic experiences.
Understanding Distracted Driving
This crash hazard arises when a driver’s attention is diverted from the road by the following distractions categories:
- Visual: Taking eyes off the road, such as looking at a phone or GPS
- Manual: Removing hands from the wheel to adjust controls or eat
- Cognitive: Daydreaming or being mentally distracted while driving
Georgia’s Hands-Free Law mandates that drivers cannot hold or support a phone with any part of their body while driving. Violations can lead to fines and points on a driver’s license.
Consequences Of Distracted Driving
Distracted driving victims may suffer:
- Serious injuries requiring extensive medical treatment
- Financial burdens due to lost wages and property damage
- Emotional distress from the trauma of the accident
In fatal cases, Southwest Georgia families are left grieving and in need of justice for their lost loved ones.
My Role As Your Injury Lawyer
As your Georgia attorney, I can assist in building a strong case by:
- Collecting evidence such as phone records and witness statements
- Negotiating with insurance companies for fair compensation
- Representing you in court if necessary to secure justice
With over $12 million secured in a single case and many other multimillion-dollar settlements, I have the experience and determination to fight for you.
