When you work with Merritt & Merritt Law Firm, you can rest and focus on your recovery with confidence while our team manages your legal affairs.
Decatur personal injury attorneys help their clients identify the parties responsible for their damages, prove the full scope of those damages, and guide them through the process of recovering their losses.
Before you will be able to recover any compensation from the party that injured you, you must prove how they injured you and prove the full extent of the resulting damages.

These are just a few examples of the types of personal injury claims the Decatur personal injury attorneys at Merritt & Merritt regularly handle for our clients. We can assist you with identifying all the parties bearing fault for your damages and, once we have established fault, help you recover as much compensation as Georgia law allows for your damages.
The main goal of a personal injury claim is for the plaintiff to prove how their injury happened and hold the appropriate party or parties accountable for the harm they caused. Once you have proven fault, your Decatur personal injury lawyer can help uncover all the various types of compensation you can include in your case. For most plaintiffs, these damages include:
The average plaintiff is often able to account for immediately recognizable economic losses but will struggle when it comes to accurate calculation of their long-term damages. They also may not know how to determine fair pain and suffering compensation to include with their claim.
When you choose Merritt & Merritt Law Firm to represent your case, our goal will be to secure the maximum amount of compensation possible for all your damages.
We take all personal injury cases on contingency, meaning our client only pays a fee if we win their case, and the fee is a percentage of the total amount recovered for them. There is no risk of paying more for legal representation than you win in compensation for your damages when you choose our firm to represent your case.
