Car Accident 50%

I'm fed up with negligent drivers and demand justice for my clients. I use medical doctors that can treat clients without insurance or up-front payment. I use companies that loan money to clients that help with case expenses, too. Demand justice!

Car accident

Tim was great. Through his knowledge and connections I was able to have excellent medical care and money to live on while waiting on the insurance company to get it's stuff together. Tim was in contact with me every week. He was thorough, informative, and easy to communicate with. If I ever need a ...lawyer again, I will definitely call Mr. White.

Replied last May 20, 2019

This client is lucky to have survived a horrible traffic collision. The responsible driver suffered a diabetic coma, passed out behind the wheel, and hit her nearly head on at highway speeds. I set her up with a top-notch orthopedic surgeon with no money up front. He referred her to physical therapy that's second to none in the industry. They too treated her without payment up front. After a few months, the orthopedic said surgery was needed in order to heal the client's shoulder. She also needed neck injections as well. Rather than get all this done at the time, client agreed to attempt settlement. My demand for money was denied, but they counter-offered with a very low figure. I immediately filed lawsuit rejecting their suggestion for pre-suit mediation. During the lawsuit, I learned that the responsible driver had a recent history of passing out behind the wheel due to his severe diabetic condition. He also passed out at home several times over the years preceding the collision. Because of all that, I added punitive damages to the lawsuit. When the six-month discovery period ended in March, 2019, I immediately notified the court we were ready for trial. In April, 2019, we received notice that our case was number 82 on the list of cases ready for trial. That was troubling as I thought surely it'd take a year or more to be reached for trial. Within a month of notifying the court we were ready, we received notice that our case was number three for trials beginning in May, 2019. Well, I was ready! I'd been preparing this case for trial since day one. The only thing left for me to do was depose the other driver's endocrinologist. In the middle of my questioning, the other lawyer received a call from the insurance company authorizing him to settle the case at my client's dollar amount she said would close the case. I should say this client was nearly perfect in every way possible. That is very important in these cases. She followed doctor's orders, timely replied to all my inquiries and requests for information, and returned telephone calls promptly. She was a pleasure to represent. I'm so happy she's alive and received what she wanted in this case.

Fantastic lawyer

Mr. White has handled three flood claims for me involving my home. Every one was very complicated and required many months to settle. What's worse, there were three insurance companies involved with each flood claim. My living in a high-rise condominium made the claims even that more difficult. M...r. White did absolutely everything to get me all the money I deserved and more. No details were overlooked. Over the years, Mr. White has assisted me with many financial matters. His fees are incredibly reasonable for all the work he does. Never once am I left wondering what's happening with matters he handles for me. He always calls me whenever something happens and often calls even when nothing's happening. This, I find very professional and reassuring. I completely trust this lawyer.

Tim White got the largest settlement I could get!

Not all cases are multi million dollar settlements, in fact most are not. But that doesn't mean they are not just as deserved. We won my case against a VERY bad insurance company. My injuries were valid but not extensive and could have been argued that they were ore-existing since I was just out of t...he walking boot after Achilles surgery. What impressed me most about Mr White was that I got the attention like my case was the biggest thing in his career. He answered questions quickly and made sure I understood before moving on. He went into great detail sometimes, just to be sure I understood and was comfortable before I made my decisions. In the end he was generous with his fees and I felt he worked harder than what he got paid for. I didn't know Tim at all before this case started and I was never involved in a injury case before, But if I ever have a need again, He would be my first call. I recommend him highly.

"Over the past 20 years of practicing law in the same jurisdiction and matters as Tim I have never seen a more ethical and intelligent attorney! His ability to analyze the law and legal principles then apply them to his client's facts and circumstances to achieve the best possible outcome is far superiour to most other attorneys in the State of Georgia. His litigation skills in a courtroom is phenomenal! As an attorney myself I would not have any doubts or regrets in having Tim represent me, a family member a or a friend on any matter."
