Andrew H. Agatston, P.C., lawyers in Marietta, GA, Georgia

The centerpiece of the Law Offices of Andrew H. Agatston is "client service." Serious personal injuries involve concerns too numerous to name, not only for the injured, but for their loved ones and friends. When clients come to us to pursue civil remedies because they have been victimized by crimes, the intensity magnifies. Measuring another person's damages due to severe injury and loss can be a difficult concept, because an injury and its effect is just a snapshot of someone's lifetime experiences.

My wife and I went to the West Coast for our 20th wedding anniversary this year. On the way back to the airport, we decided at the last minute to merge onto the Pacific Coast Highway. This spectacular winding highway led to the Pacific Ocean beach that you see here. We were so fortunate to experience this beauty, and we were able to because we were healthy and we could walk. Neither pain nor horrible injury prevented this side excursion, and we counted our blessings. This photograph tells a story because there's a person there who experienced it.

The great lawyers of the past credited their effectiveness to their ability to walk in their client's shoes. They provided client service, but also provided inspired service. They met outside of the office with the client's family and friends, they went to their homes, they sat down with them at the kitchen table, they saw their family pictures on the walls, and looked at their photo albums. Understanding a client's experiences -- past and present -- enables an effective lawyer to advocate on the client's behalf.

Personal injury lawyers better provide inspired service in this day and age. This firm aggressively pursues remedies for your physical injuries, your lost wages, your medical expenses and all of your harms and losses. These losses often include the moments and events that you miss due to injuries. Life inspires people because of the experiences. Lost life experiences occur due to injuries caused by the negligence or intentional acts of others.

Obtaining a full recovery for a personal injury can be difficult for many reasons. Opponents to full justice are plentiful. In 2005, the injured in Georgia began facing additional hurdles from a source they would not expect: legislation passed by Georgia's General Assembly under the guise of reducing medical malpractice insurance premiums for physicians. This anti-consumer legislation could further victimize the injured if they are not aware of the significant obstacles placed in front of them by this legislation.

But despite the legislation and its effects, the civil justice system still holds promise for those who deserve its assistance and protections. This law firm is dedicated to combining the hard work necessary to ensure the fullest recovery for your injuries, with compassion for the ordeal that we know our injured clients are facing. I welcome the opportunity to provide you, your family and your loved ones with inspired legal service.
