Representing Injured Clients Throughout Fulton County
Fulton County is Georgia's most populous county, home to more than 1.1 million residents and, of course, the city of Atlanta itself. That scale means an enormous range of personal injury cases move through Fulton's courts each year, from highway crashes on the connector to premises liability claims in the county's busiest commercial corridors. Turnbull, Moak & Pendergrass maintains a local office right here in Atlanta, and civil cases arising in the county are generally heard in Fulton County Superior Court, part of the Atlanta Judicial Circuit and housed in the historic Fulton County Courthouse on Pryor Street. We know these courts, and the neighborhoods they serve, from Buckhead's high-rises to the office parks of Sandy Springs and Johns Creek. If you or someone you love was injured anywhere in Fulton County, we're ready to help, whether that means a swift settlement or taking your case all the way to a jury.
Why Choose Turnbull, Moak & Pendergrass?

We hold ourselves to four values on every Fulton County case:
- Selfless Service: Your best interests come first, always.
- Leadership: Clear, forward-thinking guidance from a team you can trust.

Frequently Asked Questions
What if the City of Atlanta itself was responsible for my accident?
Claims against the city, such as a road defect or a city vehicle, involve strict ante litem notice requirements with deadlines far shorter than those in an ordinary injury claim, so it's worth getting legal advice right away.
Does Fulton County's large court caseload affect how long my case takes?
It can factor into scheduling, but a heavier caseload doesn't change the strength of your claim. We build every case thoroughly, regardless of how quickly or slowly the court calendar moves.
What if I had been hurt in a high-rise office building or parking deck in downtown Atlanta or Buckhead?
Building owners and management companies have a duty to maintain safe conditions, including in elevators, stairwells, and parking structures. These cases often come down to inspection and maintenance records, so acting quickly to preserve that evidence matters.
Do I have to pay anything up front?
No. Personal injury cases at our firm are handled on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing out of pocket, and we only get paid when we secure a recovery for you.
