I handle all types of Personal Injury but have particular expertise in Bicycle Wreck cases and in all manner of Car Wreck cases. Bicycle Wrecks are different than other types of car accidents and should only be handled by lawyers with a particular understanding of the issues related to bicyclists.

Brain Injury 20%

In bike wrecks and other crashes, brain injury is an all too common injury. My experience in representing more than 500 former NFL players in the Concussion Litigation has given me incredible insight into the needs of brain injured clients and how best to serve them. I'm also proud to be a Board Member of the Brain Injury Association of Georgia.

Genuine

From start to finish my case was handled with deep sincerity and concern. The entire firm made me feel like family and earned my trust. They were a perfect match for me as a cyclist of in-town Atlanta. We need advocates like this to push for positive change and protect cyclist's rights.

Bruce Hagen

My experience with Mr. Hagen was nothing short of excellent. They prepared me properly for what I could expect and kept me advised on the progress. He also paid particular attention to the type of client I was and how to properly pursue the case. He and all of his associates were professional, thoro...ugh, and I was completely overwhelmed with the results. I would recommend him, his associates, and his firm again, without hesitation and in fact, I already have.

Professional Help!

Bruce as well as his staff (Amie/Jamie) assisted me through a very unfortunate accident. They were professional and at times inspirational. As with all safety products you hope to never use them but are grateful they are there.

Bruce Hagen helped me tremendously

I had a horrific car wreck a few years back. I was in the hospital for 5 weeks with multiple broken bones, internal injuries and 2 major surgeries. I called Bruce shortly after i got out of the hospital and he stayed by my side until i got paid. It was a complicated case with lots of negotiations ...and multiple insurance companies and claims. Bruce kept me informed throughout the entire process and patiently answered every question I had especially when there was legal mumbo jumbo. Bruce genuinely seems to care and followed up with me on several occasions even after the settlement and the end of his job. I totally trust Bruce (something i don't say about a lot of lawyers) and i have recommended him to several friends who were injured as well as asking him for referrals for other attorneys on cases that he does not cover. I highly recommend Bruce Hagen as a super-competent, honest and high-integrity attorney if you unfortunately need one.
