Overview

A driver glancing at a text for two seconds can change your life forever. Distracted driving is entirely preventable, and Georgia law backs that up — the state’s hands-free law makes holding a phone while driving illegal, and a violation can help prove fault.

Why This Practice Area Matters

Most distracted driving claims come down to proof: witness accounts, cell phone records, and sometimes app usage data. We move quickly to preserve that evidence before it becomes harder to obtain.

Common Causes

  • Texting or Using a Phone While Driving
  • Talking on a Handheld Phone
  • Eating or Drinking Behind the Wheel
  • Adjusting GPS or Infotainment Systems
  • Interacting with Passengers
  • Reaching for Items in the Vehicle

Compensation You May Recover

  • Medical Expenses
  • Lost Wages
  • Pain and Suffering
  • Property Damage
  • Future Medical Care

Case Guide

Distracted driving cases often hinge on evidence most people don't know how to obtain — cell phone records and app data. We move quickly to secure it, along with witness accounts and any available video.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you prove a driver was texting at the time of the crash?

We can subpoena cell phone records and, when relevant, app usage data to establish a timeline showing phone activity around the time of the crash.

Is talking on a hands-free device against the law in Georgia?

Georgia's hands-free law focuses on holding or physically supporting a phone; hands-free use is generally permitted, though any distraction can still factor into a negligence claim.

What if the other driver denies using their phone?

Phone records, witness statements, and even dashcam footage can help establish what really happened regardless of what the driver claims.
