At Edwards Law, Bruce Edwards and Winston Edwards we’ve seen firsthand how quickly life can change after a car accident. Just one moment of distraction or negligence can leave someone injured, overwhelmed, and unsure of what to do next. That’s why we take pride in being fierce advocates for victims across Georgia. Recently, we handled a case that exemplifies why immediate action and experienced legal guidance can make all the difference.

A Routine Drive Turned Tragic

Our client, a 38-year-old father of two, was on his way home from work in Coffee County when a distracted driver ran a red light and T-boned his vehicle. The crash was violent. Emergency services had to extract him from the wreckage. He suffered multiple injuries, including a fractured pelvis, broken ribs, and a concussion.

His life was put on hold in an instant. Between the ambulance ride, surgery, physical therapy, and weeks out of work, his medical bills began to mount—and so did the stress.

The Insurance Company’s First Offer: Insulting

Like many victims, our client assumed the at-fault driver’s insurance would cover everything. But the insurer’s initial offer barely scratched the surface of his medical costs—let alone the pain and suffering or future rehabilitation expenses.

That’s when he called Edwards Law.

Building the Case: Details Matter

We immediately launched our own investigation. Our team collected traffic camera footage, interviewed witnesses, and pulled mobile phone records that proved the other driver was texting at the time of the crash.

We worked with medical experts to assess long-term care needs and economic professionals to estimate lost earning capacity. With this information, we built a rock-solid demand package and refused to accept anything less than fair compensation.

The Outcome: A Life-Changing Settlement

Thanks to thorough preparation and a no-nonsense approach, we were able to negotiate a $725,000 settlement —far beyond the insurer’s initial lowball offer. This settlement covered all medical expenses, lost income, and provided our client with a financial cushion for his future recovery.

Why Choosing the Right Attorney in Georgia Matters

Georgia’s personal injury laws can be complex, especially when comparative negligence or uninsured drivers are involved. That’s why victims need someone who not only understands the legal landscape but also genuinely cares about their well-being.

At Edwards Law, we’re proud to offer both.
