Valdosta Singular Car Accident Attorneys
Speak with Our Team at Studstill Firm, LLP
Just because your car was the only vehicle involved in an accident does not mean that the accident was your fault. Someone else may be to blame or is responsible, and you may be able to take legal action to obtain compensation for your injuries and property damage.
Single car crash cases, however, are often complex. Many attorneys will turn them away because determining liability is often difficult. That’s where we come in. The experienced Valdosta auto accident attorneys at the Studstill Firm, LLP are not afraid to pursue compensation for victims involved in single car accidents.
We’re routinely able to secure compensation for our clients who may have been injured on roads in Valdosta, Macon, Albany, or anywhere in South Georgia or Middle Georgia.
Are you ready to start exploring your car accident claim options? Call our offices at (229) 515-8900 today.
Common Causes of Single Car Accidents
Some single-car accidents are the fault of the driver, but many are due to external factors that are outside of any motorist's control. Our firm can help victims identify the responsible parties and seek accountability.
Common causes for singular car crashes include:
Hydroplaning
Motorists involved in hydroplane accidents are often victims of negligence and don’t know it. If a road is constructed properly, hydroplaning accidents simply should not happen. Water should not build up on a road. Rather, water should drain to the side.
If water builds up on a road causing a vehicle to hydroplane, those responsible for constructing and maintaining the unsafe roadway may be held responsible for the motor vehicle accident and personal injuries or wrongful death that result.
Road Construction
Construction zones are everywhere on interstates that run through Georgia, such as I-75, I-95, and I-85. Contractors are required to set up construction zones in a manner that does not put drivers or road construction workers in danger.
Unfortunately, crashes in work zones happen all too often, resulting in severe personal injuries and even deaths. Accidents in these areas may have been caused by lack of warning signs, improperly diverted traffic, poor placement of cones and barriers, or other problems. When collisions occur in a work zone or construction area, negligent construction companies may be held accountable.
Clear Zones
A properly maintained road or highway in Georgia must have an area on both sides of the road completely clear of debris, trees, obstacles, shrubbery or other obstructions. These are called clear zones. The purpose of clear zones is to act as a safety buffer for cars and other vehicles that leave the roadway. The clear zone gives the vehicle space to stop without hitting anything.
However, many of Georgia’s roads and highways do not have properly maintained clear zones. As a result, many car crashes and accidents end with a violent collision into a tree or other obstruction that should have been removed.
Vehicle Defects
Improperly designed or manufactured vehicles, or vehicles with defective parts can cause single car accidents. Defective brakes and steering mechanisms can result in the unexpected loss of control. Defective tires can cause rollovers. Designers, manufacturers, and sellers of a defective vehicle can be held accountable in these cases.
One-Car Accident Claims
The singular car accident lawyers at the Studstill Firm, LLP are experts in obtaining compensation for those hurt on roadways in Macon, Albany, Waycross, Tifton and in other parts of South Georgia. Even if you are unsure what caused your accident, our team can help you get to the bottom of it.
If we feel your case has merit, we will move quickly to examine the entire vehicle and all of its pieces or parts, and the roadway where the accident occurred to determine if someone else was responsible for the wreck.
It is important to move quickly in these types of cases because of how quickly valuable evidence on the car and at the wreck scene will disappear and be lost forever. Without the proper investigation, even the best cases will fail.
Because we provide all potential clients with a free consultation, there is no risk in calling to discuss your matter with us. Let us help you decide if the case is worth a serious look to determine what really happened.
The answers and advocacy you need is just a phone call away. Call us at (229) 515-8900 to request your free consultation today.

I can’t emphasize how satisfied I am with how you handled my case throughout; and it has nothing to do with the fact that you earned me a favorable settlement. Honestly the amount of the settlement mean little compared to the quality of service I received. I’ve dealt with lawyers in the past and my experience with you is by far the best! What makes it the best is: You communicated EVERYTHING clearly from beginning to end (no surprises) Your response time was ALWAYS fast Your staff is professional and thorough You applied yourself diligently to make SURE I was protected by law and that I received EVERYTHING I was entitled to by law You NEVER made me feel pressured to make a decision or do anything I didn’t feel comfortable with Overall and throughout the process, I felt as if you cared more about ME as a client than about making money. I just felt as if I had a “good person” working on my behalf.- Daryl
