They kept in touch with me about every aspect of my case. I knew they were working for my benefit.
The staff are courtesy and the attorneys work hard on your behalf. In addition, they keep you abreast of the status of your case.
I had the pleasure of working with Attorney Scott Patterson who truly went above and beyond for my case. He's so amazing! His expertise and dedication were evident throughout the process, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. Thanks to the hard work and patience put into my case. I received a fantastic and fair settlement that exceeded my expectations. Furthermore, his assistant, Sarah Duncan, played an integral role in the success of my case. Her professionalism and support were outstanding. She consistently demonstrated a genuine concern for my needs and was always there to provide assistance whenever I needed it.Overall, I am incredibly grateful for the outstanding service provided by Attorney Scott Patterson and team. I wholeheartedly recommend Montlick & Associates law firm to anyone in need of legal representation. Thank you so much!
Hey everyone alyssa is the best lawyer I have ever had. She works fast and has everything organized. If you are having trouble looking for a lawyer no problem call Alyssa Martin she’s the best!!!!
Attorney Scott Patterson was outstanding in getting us compensated for an injury to our 3 yr old. Other attorneys probably wouldn't have bothered with our case but he took a chance and worked his butt off which led to us receiving a settlement. Very pleased!Walter
On November 30, 2022 I experienced the worst injury that I have ever experienced at fault not my own, while on a quick out of town trip. Not only was I severely burned at an establishment, but I was denied representation by several firms where my incident happened. Unbeknownst to me just because an incident happens in a certain state doesn't mean you have to obtain representation there, which is how I had a turn around in defeat. Not only did Montlick & Associates instantly take my case, Ellen Forrester provided candor from the start on the pros, cons, and how she could deliver her services with the goal of fighting for me as her client being one that was truly heartfelt. From constant check ins from Dayna Clark (Ellen's Senior Legal Assistant), to pertinent information delivered directly from Ellen, I felt the utmost service with care was provided. Ellen was diligent in getting the best results no matter the fight. In the end I had a successful outcome and hopefully raised enough awareness for an incident this traumatic not to happen to anyone else. I Thank Ellen & Dayna for all their hard work and would recommend more stars if I could based on their client care alone.
I would like to thank Mike Bish, MacKenzie Lisa's, and David Rubin for handling and litigate my case. They were very professional and helpful making sure that if I didn't have any issues with my workers comp claim. I will recommend Montlick & Associates to anyone that needs help. They keep communication open and have all the right people in place to answer all my questions and very knowledgeable of what steps to take when injured.
I hired Mrs. Forrester for my case last year in May and they got me settled for more money than I ever thought!!! Very professional and prompt with call backs my overall experience with them was amazing!! Mrs. Foresster and Ms. Julie Vaughn was the sweetest and most hard working lawyers there is I have already referred them to my sister and will continue to recommend them to all my friends and family!!
Spectacular Service! Attorney Glosser and Gia worked countless hours on my case. Very pleased with the outcome!
Thank you Jason and Kalana for working on my son's case. No one else would take this case because it was so difficult and you guys worked hard on making sure that he got his settlement. I wish I could give you guys a hundred Stars because that's how amazing you are thanks again.
I came to Montlick because of a minor accident I had on slingshot. Nothing is too big or too small for this law firm. I must say. It has been a pleasure working with Sarah and her asst Christopher. They were very professorial. And got right on the case. They always kept me informed every step of the way. Very satisfied customer! Thx again! 😊
Definitely the best! They worked hard for me and I really appreciate them.
This is from Terri Dodd a friend of mine and client of Motlick and Associates. She would like to express her sincere appreciation to Scott Patterson and his team for their remarkable work on her personal injury case. They have given 100% attention to her needs and concerns, and their work has been exemplary. She and I both highly recommend anyone and everyone searching for legal assistance to contact Montlick and Associates.
Montlick & Associates, Attorneys are outstanding. When a hit a run driver rear-ended my car, I called the law firm, and they worked on my case from the beginning to the end. I am very pleased with their service and I highly recommend them if you have legal matters.
Best attorney I've worked with
I am so happy with the results that Jason got for my case. All other practices wouldn't take my case but not Jason. He knew I had a bad fall and injury. He and Esmerelda worked so hard and informed me of every detail immediately. I highly recommend their services. If I ever need an accident attorney, I will not hesitate to call Jason. Thank you and I hope you enjoyed the goodies I baked for you. I will forever be grateful for the settlement you got for me.
Excellent as always. This is the second case that has been worked out for me. Ellen Forrester and Dayna Clark have always gone above and beyond. Thank you so much.
Awesome people to work would recommend them to anyone who needed an attorney

Our Experienced Augusta Pedestrian Accident Injury & Wrongful Death Lawyers Can Help

Don't Settle For Less Than You Deserve 

Augusta is a beautiful city with a riverwalk that runs along the Savannah River. Sunny and bright, it’s a lovely place to enjoy the sights and take a walk in town. But, with a lack of public safety planning when designing roads and intersections in Georgia cities like Augusta is a common cause of many pedestrian accidents.

Pedestrian accidents are life-altering events, regardless of the injuries sustained. Trauma to your mental and emotional health can require long-term care and may be as harmful as causing you to be fearful of driving or walking in busy areas in general. The toll a hit-by-car accident takes on pedestrian victims is not to be taken lightly. We’re here to maximize your claim’s value and minimize your stress so you can focus on healing.

Pedestrian Accidents in Augusta Disproportionately Affect Seniors and Children

We've Won Billions

Since 1984 our attorneys have won billions of dollars in compensation for our personal injury clients. Find out what we can do for you.

Unfortunately, Augusta pedestrian accidents often involve seniors and/or children. While any pedestrian can be injured in an Augusta pedestrian accident, seniors and children are the most common victims.

Nationally, approximately 40 percent of those injured in pedestrian accidents are children under the age of 15. Children may lack the experience or mature judgment to avoid fatal errors that put them in the path of unsafe drivers. Numerous studies also indicate that children have less ability to estimate time and distance, making it more difficult for them to make accurate judgments about whether it’s safe to cross the street or not, even at dedicated intersections.

The elderly are also more likely to be injured in an Augusta pedestrian accident because of physical limitations related to age. This common physical limitation of the elderly is often neglected by public entities when designing intersections which do not necessarily include center islands or longer traffic signals.

Common Causes of Augusta Pedestrian Accidents

  • Drivers under the influence of drugs and alcohol
  • Accidents caused by fatigued and drowsy drivers
  • Reckless driving practices like street racing and unsafe passing
  • Failure to comply with traffic signals or exercise caution at intersections
  • Speeding drivers unable to stop or avoid pedestrians
  • Poor urban planning that fails to provide adequate crosswalks, traffic signals and other safeguards

While the majority of pedestrian accidents are caused by negligent or reckless drivers, Augusta pedestrian accidents may also be caused by poor roadway design or maintenance, defective motor vehicle components and poor vehicle maintenance. When negligence by a public entity is a contributing factor to a pedestrian accident, special procedures and time limits apply to pursue a claim against the governmental entity.

The experienced Augusta pedestrian accident lawyers at Montlick have a proven track record of pursuing pedestrian accident cases against not only careless or inattentive drivers but public entities.

Forms of Compensation Montlick May Be Able to Obtain:

  • Lost income including future lost earnings due to disability
  • Hospital and medical bills and other treatment related costs
  • Impairment of quality of life and marital relationship
  • Pain and suffering
  • Wrongful death damages (expenses related to death such as funeral or burial expenses)
  • Punitive damages (egregious cases like those involve impaired drivers)
