This is by far the absolute best Law Firm in Atlanta, Georgia. My attorney, Nick Vocino, who’s extremely brilliant, exceptionally professional, knowledgeable, efficient, effective, and prompt has handled two car accident cases for me resulting in very favorable outcomes. Nick Vocino and his staff possess the right combination of skills that you can trust to get the very best results. This firm has earned my most fervent and enthusiastic recommendation.

On Oct 30, 2022, I was in a Hit and Run Accident in Lagrange GA. by a non-insured motorist, Not naming the 3 previous law firms that totally almost ruined my chances in getting things doing and helping me through my nightmare. a year head almost went by feeling like i was the perpetrator and not the victim of a hit and run. I never been in any car accident of this multitude. I was so lost, had not guidance of what to do and how to do it right. Never even got to talk to any of the previous attorneys that claim they help people after a car accident. I had sunk into deep depression. As a retired Veteran that suffer from PTSD and Paranoia when i had to drive, I was so scared and afraid to the point I had other drivers around me wondering if i was a safe driver. until one night i was watch TV after praying to God to please send me an Angle to help me that's when Montlick & Associates commercial came on it was. I set up in my bed and knew if I wanted real help and be able to talk with an Attorney on my case and not some injury firm Secretary. I need to call right away cause time head already been wasted, fighting with the last three injury law firms. Mrs. Neives was my Angle along with everyone at Montlick I felt like not only did I have an Attorney but i also had an after Accident Mental Therapist she insured me that she would get everything back on the right track. and rewrite all the wrongs and make them right. not one time did i every had to call for any updates. if there was anything she needed answers to I was contact by her or someone on her team by email or phone call. the Only thing i regrate is not calling Monlick & Associates when the Hit and Run first Accrued from the Hospital. my story goes out to everyone who may find themselves in the same situation. Yes, there is a lot of an injury law firms out there but I will bet my bottom dollar that you will not talk to nor know who your attorney is and be kept updated about your cause if you're not a client of Montlick & Associates. I thank my Heavenly Father for everyone at Montlick & Associates

Since Covid, I’ve been in 3 hit-and-run accidents in which neither were my fault. I had a different attorney represented me in the first accident who was not very attentive nor responsive to my numerous calls and questions. For my second and third accident, I decided to go with Montlick and Associates, specifically Attorney Cate Powell. Cate, returned my call; she listened, took notes, allowed me to vent about chronic pain I was experiencing and after finding out that the other driver almost got out of paying the liability claim due to a technicality, Cate assured me that she had everything under control. Unlike my first attorney, she not only provided updates but she checked on my recovery as well; and if she was unable to personally update me, she allowed her team to provide an update. Cate is a fighter for her clients, she even dealt with my insurance to ensure that I received everything that was owed to me. And she also represented my husband as well. She is now someone I trust wholeheartedly, and if I ever have a legal matter, I can call her for help and if she can’t represent me, she will certainly point me in the right direction.So, if you’re ever in an accident and seeking legal representation, and need a no-nonsense attorney, call Attorney Cate Powell because I am telling you from experience – she would be your one call that would fully represent you. Trust me!

There are many positive words to describe my experience with Montlick & Associates. However, the ones that are most applicable to my case are professional, responsive, knowledgeable, and trustworthy.I truly appreciate the time and effort that Nick Vocino and Amber Starks spent on my behalf. The entire process took about 2 years from the date of the accident to the date I got my settlement check. Nick kept me apprised every step of the way and for that, I am truly grateful!Montlick & Associates is a 5-star law firm. I would absolutely recommend it to my family and friends!

After a terrible accident, we turned to Ellen Forrester at Montlick for help with my mom's case. She walked us through everything step by step, handled the documentation and when it came time, her colleague, Mike Moran, and her represented my mom amazingly at mediation. While we are very happy with the settlement reached, this process was so much easier with their care and guidance. We will forever recommend them and Montlick to anyone.

We Don't Settle for Less. Neither Should You.™

The economic burden of a collision with a big rig, including medical expenses, inability to work and more adds tremendous amounts of stress to accident victims. Insurance companies understand how the stress affects you, and they regularly try to take advantage of your vulnerable state of mind. Remember, insurance claims adjusters’ top goal is to pay out as little as possible or avoid paying anything on a claim. According to an Insurance Research Council (IRC) study:

  • 85% of personal injury victims who received a payout were represented by legal counsel.
  • On average, injury victim claimants who retained attorneys received 300% more money than those who did not retain legal representation. In our experience, when it comes to serious trucking accidents, the numbers can be many times greater.

Don’t make a costly mistake — allow Montlick to pursue the full value of you claim.

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.
What's Your Case Worth?

You’re injured and unsure of what comes next. We can help.

Trucking accidents are extremely complicated. The trucking industry is governed by industry regulations, plus state and federal laws that require specific knowledge and experience. That’s where we come in. Our Augusta trucking accident lawyers have been providing outstanding legal help to commercial trucking accident victims for decades. Our tractor-trailer attorneys understand the complex issues that are unique to commercial trucking accident claims.  including:

  • Access of trucking companies to massive litigation resources
  • Understanding the complicated federal and state regulatory structure that governs the trucking industry
  • Questionable industry practices that can manipulate potential evidence, such as altering driver logbooks or erasing critical evidence stored on tractor-trailer data recorders

It’s absolutely key to reach out to a Montlick attorney to find out your legal options. We understand the tactics trucking companies, their lawyers, and their insurance partners use, and we know how to fight against them. These sketchy tactics can include:

Manipulating logbooks: Drivers and companies are required to track critical issues like driver fatigue based on hours of service and maintenance issues. In some cases, trucking companies have been known to falsify those logs.

Hiding vehicle damage: Companies will often repair a truck that has been involved in an accident and put that truck back in service so that evidence of vehicle damage and onboard data recorder information is lost.

Dodging Responsibility: Companies might try to characterize the driver and trucking company relationship as an independent contractor relationship rather than employment relationship so the company can avoid liability and minimize the amount they have to pay you.

Shifting blame: Companies and their lawyers often try to shift responsibility to accident victims to avoid paying out.

Don't Delay

The best time to contact Montlick after a trucking accident is now. Let us get started on your case as quickly as possible to put the most money in your pocket.

Preserving Evidence Before It’s Lost

When it comes to preserving evidence after a truck accident, timing is everything. Evidence can be lost or destroyed in the days, weeks, and even months after the accident occurs. It is crucial to take steps to preserve evidence before it is too late.

Our lawyers will thoroughly investigate your accident, including, when appropriate, going to the scene ourselves, using accident reconstruction experts and more. Here are some additional tips that can help preserve evidence after a big rig crash:

Take photographs or video footage of the scene of the accident as soon as possible.

Speak with witnesses and obtain their contact information for future reference during your case.

Collect all medical records pertaining to the truck accident immediately following treatment at a hospital or doctor’s office.

Keep an eye out for any hazardous materials spilled in connection with the accident– this could include diesel fuel, oil, antifreeze, brake fluid, etc.

Because trucking accidents often result in severe injuries, you may require immediate medical attention and are not able to act on these tips. That’s okay! Our team of attorneys and investigators will work quickly to handle all of this for you.

Truck Accidents Are on the Rise

The number of tractor-trailers, semi-trucks, and big rigs on Georgia roadways has risen dramatically in recent years. Sadly, as more and more large trucks take to Georgia highways, the rate of accidents and fatalities related to these tractor-trailers continues to climb. In recent years more than 5,000 large trucks have been involved in fatal injury crashes.

Large truck accidents account for over 4,800 fatalities across the U.S. each year. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), more than 10% of traffic fatalities are the result of collisions involving a large truck. In addition to the alarming rate of fatalities, another 100,000 individuals are injured in tractor-trailer accidents every year.
