The Covington Highway / Panola Road intersection in DeKalb is a known high-crash corner. Signal timing, left-turn geometry, and heavy commuter traffic combine into regular T-bone wrecks.

Four Ways the Covington & Panola Intersection Hurts People
This corner has been cited by DeKalb DOT as a high-crash location. Signal-timing and lane configuration changes have helped — but T-bones and left-turn crashes still happen.
Left-Turn Crash
Drivers turning left from Panola onto Covington misjudge oncoming speed.
T-Bone Wreck
Signal-running drivers hit cars passing through the intersection.
Rear-End
Sudden braking when the signal changes — chain-reaction wrecks at this corner.
Pedestrian Strike
Crosswalk visibility is poor. Drivers turning right miss pedestrians.
Signal Phase = Liability.
Intersection cases win or lose on signal-phase data. We pull DOT records the same week.
Evidence Has a Shelf Life.
Cameras and witnesses fade fast. Skid marks disappear within days. Acting in the first week wins cases.
How long traffic-cam footage stays
DeKalb County maintains intersection cameras at this corner. Footage is typically retained 30 days. Witness statements fade fast — call us within 48 hours.

How We Build Your Case
Every personal-injury case is a negligence case. We establish the four elements and stack every available policy.
Duty
The other driver owed you a duty of safe driving on Georgia roads.
Breach
That duty was violated — speeding, distracted, drunk, or negligent.
Causation
The breach directly caused your injuries and losses.
Damages
You suffered real, measurable harm — medical, financial, personal.

Covington Hwy & Panola Crash FAQ
I was hit at Covington Hwy & Panola. What do I do first?+
Get to safety, call 911, and accept medical attention even if you “feel okay” — adrenaline masks injuries. Then call us, ideally before talking to any insurance company. We move on evidence preservation within 48 hours.
How long does a Spaghetti Junction case take?+
Simple cases settle in 60-120 days. Cases involving commercial trucks, multiple vehicles, or contested liability typically take 6-18 months. We never pressure you to settle for less just to close the case faster.
What if the at-fault driver had no insurance or fled the scene?+
Your own UM/UIM (uninsured/underinsured motorist) coverage typically kicks in. Most Georgia drivers don’t realize they have it — we’ll find every policy that applies, including yours.
What’s the deadline to file a claim?+
Generally two years from the date of the crash under O.C.G.A. § 9-3-33. Cases against government entities (e.g., GDOT for road defects) have shorter deadlines — sometimes 6 months. Call early.
Do you charge anything up front?+
No. Consultations are free and we only charge a 25% contingency fee if we recover on your behalf — well below the 33-40% most Atlanta firms charge.
