At Commander+Pound you will find serious attorneys for serious car accidents.

For many of us, dealing with the aftermath of a serious car accident will be the most traumatic experience of our lifetime.

In 2008, 2.35 million people - or more than four times the population of Atlanta - were injured in car accidents in the United States, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. A total of 37,261 people lost their lives in traffic accidents.

At Commander+Pound we use our extensive work with doctors, surgeons and hospitals to build your case with the medical expertise you need to get the compensation you deserve.

If you or a loved one have been in a serious car accident it is important to understand that you are surrounded by parties who have legal representation and deal everyday with the complex issues surrounding auto accidents.

Police officers deal with accidents everyday. Your insurance company and the insurance companies of other vehicles involved are professionals in the field and have attorneys looking out for their best interests.

Insurance companies are in business to make money. Often they will present settlement documents right away - even at the accident scene or the hospital - in an attempt to limit their losses.

It is important that you not sign anything without consulting a qualified personal injury or wrongful death attorney.

There will be medical bills - a trip to the emergency room in an ambulance can easily cost $10,000 -- lost wages and complex medical issues that can take time to develop and diagnose.

It is not unusual for serious spinal cord injuries, back and neck injuries, brain injuries or other significant conditions to take time to evolve and become apparent.

At Commander + Pound, we were founded on the principle that decades of experience in litigating complex medical cases could be put to work for average citizens seriously injured in car accidents.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorists

Often at-fault drivers will attempt to minimize insurance coverage or suggest they are not covered in an attempt to minimize the chances of a claim. And, unfortunately, far too many motorists are driving without coverage or with coverage that is not sufficient for a major claim.

At Commander+Pound, we will sort through the facts of your case and help you determine the best course of action. Often, we can help you receive coverage from policies on other vehicles in the household, from the personal assets of the at-fault party, or even from your own insurance company.

But we can't help if you don't ask. If you or someone you love has been in a serious car accident, don't try to handle it on your own.

The Atlanta car accident lawyers at Commander+Pound offer free appointments to discuss your rights.
