Top 5 Mistakes Victims Make After a Car Accident in Fulton County (and How to Avoid Them)

You survived the crash, but what happens next can determine whether you walk away with justice or just medical bills.

At KP Law Group, we’ve represented hundreds of Atlanta and Fulton County residents who unknowingly sabotaged their own claims by making these common post-accident mistakes.

Here’s what to avoid and what to do instead.

1. Talking to the Insurance Company Too Soon

Insurance adjusters sound friendly for a reason. They’re trained to get statements that hurt your case.

✅ Instead: Refer all communication to your attorney. Every word goes through KP Law, ensuring you never say something that could cost you your claim.

2. Not Getting Checked by a Doctor Immediately

Even if you feel fine, soft tissue or internal injuries can take days to appear.
✅ Always visit a doctor within 24 hours and document every symptom.

3. Posting About the Accident on Social Media

A single post or “I’m fine” comment can destroy your credibility.
✅ Keep your recovery offline until your case is settled.

4. Accepting the First Settlement Offer

Insurance companies often offer quick, lowball settlements hoping you’ll take it before knowing the real value of your claim.
✅ Let KP Law Group calculate the true cost of your pain, suffering, and lost income.

5. Waiting Too Long to Hire an Attorney

Georgia’s statute of limitations gives you only two years to file, but evidence and leverage fade much faster.
✅ Contact us early so we can start building your case right away.

If you’ve been hurt in Fulton County, the worst mistake you can make is waiting.
Be Fierce. Be Fearless. Let KP Law Group fight for what’s yours.
