Our Process

Steps to Take After an Accident in Brookhaven

Your Path to Recovery: A Clear & Simple Process

The legal process can seem confusing and intimidating, especially when you’re recovering from an injury. We believe in making it as clear and stress-free as possible. While every case is unique, here is a general overview of how we approach each claim, designed to put you at ease and keep you informed every step of the way.

Seek Immediate Medical Attention

If possible move yourself and your vehicle to a safe area away from traffic – a nearby parking lot or side street off Buford Highway or Peachtree Road works well – and call 911 immediately so Brookhaven Police and emergency medical services can respond. When speaking with the responding officer ask for their name badge number and especially the case or incident number as that is the most important detail to have later for insurance and documentation purposes.

Prioritize Safety and Call 911

Even if you feel fine at the scene some injuries may not appear until hours or days after an accident. Many people find it helpful to be evaluated promptly at a nearby facility such as Emory Saint Joseph’s Hospital or a local urgent care clinic. A prompt medical evaluation can create a clear record connecting any symptoms to the accident.

Document the Accident

If it is safe take photos or video of the scene including vehicle positions skid marks traffic signals and road conditions on streets such as Buford Highway Peachtree Road or Ashford Dunwoody Road. Nearby landmarks or business signs such as those around Town Brookhaven can help pinpoint the exact location which may be useful later for obtaining camera footage or witness information. Collect names phone numbers driver’s license numbers and insurance details from every driver involved and politely ask any witnesses for their contact information before they leave.

Be Cautious With Insurance Communications

When the at-fault party’s insurance company calls you can consider declining to give a recorded statement until you have spoken with an attorney. Many people find it helpful to simply provide basic contact information and claim numbers while avoiding detailed discussions about injuries or fault at that early stage.

Keep a Detailed Journal and Records

Consider keeping a written or digital log of how your injuries are affecting your daily life in Brookhaven such as difficulty commuting on I-285 caring for family members or visiting local shops and parks. Save all medical bills receipts prescription records and correspondence from insurers as these documents may be important later.

Why Client Choose Us

The Advantage of Local Knowledge: Lonnie Law in Atlanta

Familiarity With the DeKalb County Court System

A Brookhaven-focused attorney may be closely familiar with the judges, clerks, and procedures in the State and Superior Courts of DeKalb County. This local insight can make scheduling, filings, and hearings more efficient and predictable. Many people find it helpful to work with someone who understands how particular courtrooms operate and can anticipate practical issues before they arise.
