Calhoun Auto Accident Lawyer
The Georgia Department of Transportation maintains more than 125,000 miles of road over seven primary interstate highways, eight auxiliary interstates, 14 primary U.S. highways and 12 auxiliary routes. That’s among the highest in the country. Unfortunately, thousands of automobile accidents occur on these roads every year.
The City of Calhoun is uniquely positioned in Gordon County just south of the Georgia-Tennessee border. U.S. Route 41 passes through the center of town as Wall Street, and I-75 runs along the eastern edge of the city, making Calhoun an integral city in Northwest Georgia. Calhoun is a fantastic place to visit, live and work, but also poses motor vehicle accident risks.
Residents of Calhoun know that any roadway accident or collision is fraught with uncertainty. So much is at stake, including:
- Your health
- The health of others
- Vehicle damage
- Your insurance claims
- Lost income
- Emotional distress, and much more.
If you were injured due to the negligent or reckless actions of another driver or a poorly maintained roadway, you need the best possible auto accident lawyer to help you navigate through these uncertain times.
