Helping Families Through Injury
Awards & Recognition
Representing Injured Individuals and Families Throughout Georgia
When an accident caused by someone else's negligence disrupts your life, the physical, financial, and emotional consequences can be overwhelming. Medical bills accumulate, work may become impossible, and the path forward may feel uncertain. If you or a family member has been injured in the Watkinsville area or anywhere in Georgia, Boggs, Cowan, & Fargione may be able to help you understand your options and take the next step.
Our attorneys represent individuals and families in a wide range of personal injury matters — from car accidents and wrongful death to premises liability and medical malpractice — throughout Georgia's state and federal courts, including cases filed in the Western Judicial Circuit, which serves Oconee and Clarke Counties.
What Is a Personal Injury Claim?
A personal injury claim arises when someone is hurt due to another party's negligent, reckless, or intentional conduct. Georgia law allows injured individuals to seek compensation for damages such as medical expenses, lost income, and pain and suffering. Under O.C.G.A. § 9-3-33, most personal injury claims in Georgia must be filed within two years of the date of the injury. Missing this deadline can permanently bar a claim, regardless of its strength.
Because deadlines and legal requirements vary depending on the facts and the parties involved, speaking with an attorney as early as possible is important.
Personal Injury Cases We Handle
Boggs, Cowan, & Fargione represents clients in a range of personal injury matters, including:
Car Accidents
We represent individuals injured in motor vehicle collisions caused by negligent, distracted, or reckless drivers. Watkinsville and the surrounding Oconee County area are served by several well-traveled routes — including US-441, State Routes 15, 25, and 53 — where accidents occur regularly.
Truck and Commercial Vehicle Accidents
Crashes involving commercial trucks often involve multiple parties and complex liability questions. We handle claims arising from commercial vehicle accidents and work to identify all responsible parties.
Wrongful Death
When negligence results in the death of a loved one, surviving family members may have legal options under Georgia's Wrongful Death Act. We handle these claims with care and work to pursue recovery for the families we represent.
Premises Liability
Property owners owe a duty of care to those on their property. When unsafe conditions cause injury (whether in a store, apartment, or public space) those responsible may be held accountable.
Product Liability
When a defective or dangerous product causes injury, the manufacturer, distributor, or seller may bear responsibility. We represent individuals harmed by products that failed to perform safely.
Medical Malpractice
When a healthcare provider's negligence causes harm, the consequences can be life-altering. These cases often require careful review and expert involvement, and we represent patients and families harmed by substandard care.
Workplace Injuries
Injured workers may have rights under Georgia's workers' compensation system, and in some situations may also have claims against third parties. We assist clients in understanding and pursuing their options.
