Atlanta Injury Attorney Blog

A six vehicle wreck involving a five cars and one 18 wheeler occurred Saturday on Interstate 85 during the earling morning hours in Coweta County. It is not yet known the full number and extent of the injuries of the individuals injured in the car accidents.

It has been reported, however, that following the car wrecks, at least three unknown people were life-flighted to Atlanta area hospitals, including Grady, Atlanta Medical Center and Scottish Rite.

It is not clear the exact cause of the car accidents, but it most likely had to do with an illegal lane change or a sudden stop in traffic. Depending on the causes of the car wrecks, property damage and bodily injury claims will most likely be filed with the at fault party's insurance company.

A chain reaction truck crash on Sunday on Interstate 285 in Atlanta resulted in the tragic death of an eight year old girl. I-285, a very busy highway, was shut down for three hours.

Two trucks and four cars were believed to be involved in the trucking accident and eleven people, including some children, sustained injuries in the auto accident. It has been reported that the chain reaction trucking accident occurred when one of the 18 wheelers jackknifed.

The 18 wheeler accident occurred in the early morning just north of Camp Creek Parkway. Given the severity and extent of the injuries, including the death of the young girl, lawsuits are expected to follow, especially one for the wrongful death of the minor killed.

An 11 year old girl, Alexis Allen, was struck and killed Friday by a tow truck while she was crossing the street on the way to school after getting off a Marta bus. The pedestrian accident occurred in the early morning. According to witnesses, the young girl was in the middle of the cross walk when the tow truck driver, Cirilo Figueroa, pulled around the bus and hit the girl, propelling her several feet into the air.

The girl died at the scene and unfortunately the mother witnessed everything. The tow truck driver claimed that he did not realize initially that he had struck the girl. The driver may face hit and run charges as it is alleged that he drove around the block after the pedestrian accident and then came back.

A wrongful death lawsuit is sure to follow.

A Houston area woman was killed in a car accident Friday night on a surface street when a pickup truck crossed the center lane colliding into the car where the now deceased woman was a passenger.

When the pickup truck crossed the center lane, the other car containing the woman killed, swerved to avoid the car accident. Despite making every effort to avoid the car accident, the pickup truck still struck the passenger side of the car killing the Texas woman.

A wrongful death lawsuit is most likely imminent.

Early this morning, a pickup truck driven by a Powder Springs woman suspected of being drunk crashed into the bedrooms of an unincorporated Cobb County house killing and resulting in the wrongful death of a 14 year old boy as he was sleeping and injuring his sister.

The boy was pronounced dead at the accident scene and his sister was treated for minor leg injuries at South Cobb Hospital. The driver of the pickup truck is a 44 year old woman. The Cobb County authorities are waiting for results of drug and alcohol tests.

A lawsuit for the wrongful death of the boy and the injuries to the minor sister will mist likely be filed. Punitive Damages, assuming that the alcohol/drugs tests come back positive, will most certainly be sought in Cobb County State or Superior Court depending on the preference of the Plaintiffs' Attorney.

An heir to a coffee fortune and billionaire, Joachim Herz, was killed while swimming at Lake Rabun outside of Atlanta on Saturday, May 31, 2008 in what appears to be a boating accident. At the time of the boating accident, Herz's family was in the midst of a family feud over control of the family's coffee company.

Herz, although being from Germany, spent time in his Atlanta home and is considered the 368th richest person in the world, according to Forbes Magazine. It is not yet known who the operator of the boat that killed Herz is and it is too early to tell whether any type of wrongful death lawsuit will be initiated.
