Motorcycles are fun to ride, but the likelihood of a serious injury or death resulting from a collision is very high. That’s where our experienced motorcycle crash and injury attorney in Buford can help. Motorcycles account for less than 2% of registered vehicles in the United States but weigh in at 85% of all traffic deaths. Many reasons account for this. Motorcycles offer less protection for their riders than other vehicles on the road and have a less visible profile. This leaves the rider with a higher risk of a collision with a careless driver. If you have been injured because of a negligent driver, our Buford motorcycle accident attorney can help you get your life back. Call Milam Law Firm today.
Everyone at some point has seen a semi-truck barreling down the expressway at 80 mph right on the bumper of the vehicle in front of it.

If you are injured from a wreck with a semi-truck, you need legal representation quickly. Many factors must be investigated to determine the liability of individuals and trucking companies. Time can be of the essence. Call Buford’s truck accident lawyer at Milam Law Firm for professional help today.
The rates of pedestrian deaths in motor vehicle crashes per 100,000 people are highest for people ages 70 and older occurring primarily in urban areas. However, pedestrian motor vehicle crashes can occur even in parking lots as people tend to pay attention to their phone rather than their surroundings. Pedestrian motor vehicle crashes can result in serious injuries, the most common being head, pelvis, and leg injuries. If you have been injured as a pedestrian, call Milam Law Firm for a free consultation to discuss your situation.
More than a quarter (25%) of all traffic-related deaths are the direct result of alcohol/drug impairment. As of 2020, about 290,000 are injured in such accidents every year. 18.9% of respondents admit to driving while buzzed. 2.1% admitted to driving while high, and 5.6% admitted to driving while buzzed and high. There have been at least 300 deaths per year within the state that have been credited to impaired driving.

All bicyclists know that cars do not always share the road. Of the 1,089 bicyclist deaths in 2019, 712 (65%) died in motor-vehicle crashes and 377 in other incidents, according to National Center for Health Statistics mortality data. The continual use of smartphones by drivers while driving makes this recreational activity an even greater risk. Bicyclists have a right to use the roads, however, and motorists are to be alert. If you have been injured by a negligent driver while riding your bike you need an experienced attorney to help you navigate this difficult situation. Call Milam Law Firm today for help from our Buford bicycle accident lawyer.
Traumatic brain injuries (TBI’s) are among the most devastating injuries stemming from a collision. Early diagnosis is very important; however, TBI’s are missed in the ER more often than they are diagnosed. TBI’s can end a career or a marriage and do so without changing the client’s outward appearance. Our PI lawyer in Buford has experience with the legal requirements of TBIs. An attorney without the knowledge and experience in dealing with TBI’s cannot obtain fair and reasonable compensation for them. Milam Law Firm’s professional traumatic brain injury attorney in Buford has the knowledge to make sure such an injury is properly diagnosed and treated. Call us today.
