  1. Personal injury: 50%

    Aaron Marks is an Atlanta personal injury attorney dedicated to helping those who have been killed or injured due to another's negligence. When one is faced with an injury, especially a serious injury, there is a moment when each individual chooses to either give up, and give in to their misfortune, or fight, and overcome their obstacle. Attorney Aaron Marks has the tools and experience necessary for his clients to achieve success, and continue living their lives to the fullest.

  2. Car accident: 25%

    Whether the at-fault driver was drowsy, intoxicated, or unlicensed, the law requires that driver "make you whole" to the condition you were in before being injured. This means that it doesn't matter if you were disabled or in bad health before the accident, you are still entitled to be compensated for your loss. All too often injured clients assume if they were in poor health before their accident they are unable to collect for their present medical treatment, pain, and suffering.

Car Accident Very professional

Posted by

My19 year old son was in a car accident and thought it would be easy. From the start the insurance companies made it as hard as possible. He hired attorney Aaron Marks and he handled everything. Attorney Marks explained that it might take some time, and it did, but in the end I was very satisfied with the final settlement. Very professional.

A huge help

Posted by

Arron has been great. He's been extremely helpful and has given me great advice. He gives straight answers and has a quick and detailed knowledge of Georgia injury law. Injuries are no fun, but it helps to have someone like Arron help you to navigate the legal end. He's also a pretty nice guy, so that helps!

We Won!

I had been turned down by another firm. Mr Marks took my case. It took two years, but we didn't give up. I am so grateful Mr Marks fought for me!

Always There

i was hurt bad when a truck hit my car but Mr Marks made sure i got medical treatment and a large settlement Hes' the man

took great care of me

Posted by

I was involved in a very serious auto accident that was not my fault. I had no medical insurance but Mr. Marks was able to get my medical and physical therapy bills taken care of in advance of our settlement with the other driver. Because of Mr. Marks I was able to get back on my feet in very short order and get on with my life.

Mr. Marks
