Representing Injured Clients Throughout Gwinnett County
Gwinnett County is Georgia's second most populous county, home to more than 1 million residents and some of the busiest commuter corridors in the state, including I-85 and GA-316. That volume of daily traffic, combined with a dense mix of retail centers, event venues, and residential neighborhoods, means personal injury cases here span nearly every type of accident we handle. Turnbull, Moak & Pendergrass maintains a local office in Peachtree Corners, which is actually Gwinnett's largest city, even though Lawrenceville serves as the county seat. Civil cases arising in the county are typically heard at the Gwinnett Justice and Administration Center in Lawrenceville, part of the Gwinnett Judicial Circuit. Knowing these courts and the communities surrounding them helps us build a stronger case from the moment you call. If you or someone you love was injured anywhere in Gwinnett County, we're ready to help, whether that means a fair settlement or taking your case all the way to trial.

Frequently Asked Questions
What if I had been hurt in a crash on I-85 or GA-316?
These corridors see some of the heaviest commuter traffic in the state, and crashes here often involve multiple vehicles, which can make sorting out fault more complicated. We investigate thoroughly rather than accepting the first version of events.
Does it matter if an autonomous or self-driving vehicle was involved in my accident?
It can. Gwinnett is home to ongoing autonomous vehicle testing, and liability in these cases may extend beyond the vehicle's operator to include the manufacturer or technology provider, depending on what caused the crash.
What if I had been injured at an event at Gas South Arena or the Gas South District?
Venue owners and operators have a duty to maintain safe conditions for guests, including adequate security and crowd management. These cases often turn on what the venue knew about a risk and whether it took reasonable steps to address it.
Do I have to pay anything up front?
No. We represent Gwinnett County clients on a contingency fee basis, so there's no charge to begin, and you won't owe us anything unless we recover compensation for you.
