The King Firm - Where Justice Reigns
No Win. No Fee. No Worries. Only Pay When We Win.
Automobile Accidents
Serving Since 1973
Every year, thousands of drivers throughout Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Mississippi, and Tennessee are involved in car accidents that cause lasting physical, emotional, and financial harm. The King Firm represents individuals and families who have suffered due to the negligence, recklessness, or wrongdoing of others on the road. Our attorneys combine deep knowledge of state injury laws with decades of courtroom experience to ensure accident victims receive the justice and compensation they deserve.
Our attorneys are currently licensed in the state of Alabama, but may enter cases in other states via pro hac vice admission, subject to state statutes, professional standards, and court rules.
Understanding Car Accidents in the Southeast
Car accidents can happen anywhere — a congested interstate, a rural two-lane road, or right outside your neighborhood. While some collisions are minor, others result in catastrophic injuries such as broken bones, spinal cord damage, traumatic brain injuries, paralysis, or fatalities. Many of these crashes stem from preventable causes like distracted driving, speeding, intoxicated driving, or failure to yield.
Several Southeastern states — including Alabama — follow strict negligence standards such as contributory negligence, meaning an injured driver who is even slightly at fault may be barred from recovering damages. This makes it critical to have a skilled attorney on your side who knows how to investigate thoroughly, establish liability, and protect your right to compensation under the laws of your state.
Common Damages and Compensation
Victims of automobile accidents may be entitled to recover compensation for:
-
Medical expenses (current and future)
-
Lost wages and loss of earning capacity
-
Property damage
-
Pain and suffering
-
Emotional distress
-
Permanent disability or disfigurement
Wrongful death through punitive or punishment damages
(This list is not exhaustive and is not intended to indicate that all individuals involved in a motor vehicle accident will be entitled to all or any of the above categories of compensation.)
Insurance companies often minimize or deny legitimate claims, hoping victims will accept the first offer presented. The King Firm helps clients understand the true value of their case and fights to secure the full amount they deserve.

Alli B.
Jasper AL
My name is Alli. When I was 16, I was involved in a car accident late on a Friday night as I was heading home from hanging out with my friends. It was one of the scariest moments of my life and left me hurt and afraid to drive for quite some time. When I called The King Firm, they spent a bunch of time with me so they could understand not only what happened during the accident, but how I felt and how my healing was coming along. They worked diligently on my case and fought for the justice I needed to move on with my life. Their hard work led to a successful resolution of my case. I would send any of my friends or family members to Jimmy King and his team because I know they will be in the best hands.
Questions?
What should I do after a car accident?
If you are involved in a car accident, you should seek the necessary medical treatment immediately. Even if you are not injured, it is important that you call the police and file a formal police report, which can later assist with insurance claims and any lawsuits which may follow.
During this time, you will be required to show your driver's license and documentation of your insurance coverage. It is important that you obtain this information from the other driver as well. If you have a camera, you should take a photo of the scene or soon after to show any damage to your vehicle. You should also contact your insurance carrier as soon as possible, so they can instruct you on the necessary steps to file your claim.
To ensure that you receive the greatest settlement possible, contact a personal injury attorney who can initiate an investigation before witnesses forget their testimonials and evidence is lost.
Automobile Accident
Do I need a police report for a minor accident?
It is always a good idea to call the police at the time of an automobile accident. Although all insurance carriers have different policies regarding the necessity of a police report when filing a claim, many will accept an auto insurance claim without one. Nonetheless, police reports are helpful in determining the involved parties and documenting who was at fault. This information will assist your insurance company in its investigation and may expedite the resolution of the claim.
Automobile Accident
Do I have to give a statement to the other driver’s insurer?
No! More often than not, the other driver's insurance company is calling to obtain information that may be used against you as you seek to recover losses. Respectfully decline their request and inform them that if they would like a copy of your statement, they may contact your insurance carrier or attorney if you have retained one.
Automobile Accident
Who pays for my medical bills?
In most cases, the party at fault (or his respective insurance company) is responsible for paying for medical treatment and other related expenses, such as lost work and compensation for vehicle damage. The extent of liability for an injury resulting from a car accident can vary based on jurisdiction. As a result, it is crucial that you hire a personal injury attorney who can help determine fault and recover any financial losses you've incurred.
