Learn more about our personal injury representation ›Car Accidents
Most Mulberry car accidents happen on or near SR-316, Buford Drive (GA-20), and the Hamilton Mill commercial corridor. Rear-end collisions during congestion, high-speed intersection crashes, and accidents at unsignalized crossings of SR-316 are all common. We help you pursue full compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
Learn more about our car accident representation ›Truck Accidents
SR-316 carries significant commercial truck traffic through Mulberry between Atlanta and northeast Georgia. Truck accident cases are uniquely complex — federal trucking regulations (FMCSA) govern driver hours, vehicle maintenance, and cargo loading, and trucking companies have rapid-response teams that arrive at the scene within hours. We move quickly to preserve black box data, driver logs, and maintenance records on your behalf.

Riders face an unfair bias in Georgia accident claims — insurance adjusters often assume the motorcyclist was at fault even when the evidence shows otherwise. We push back with accident reconstruction, witness testimony, and a deep understanding of Georgia's helmet and comparative negligence rules.
Learn more about our motorcycle accident representation ›Pedestrian Accidents
The Hamilton Mill area in Mulberry sees significant foot traffic between retail centers and surrounding neighborhoods. Pedestrian accidents in this corridor often involve serious injuries and long recoveries. Victims deserve full compensation from the negligent driver.

SR-316 has taken too many lives in this part of Gwinnett County. When a Mulberry family loses someone in a preventable accident, Georgia law (O.C.G.A. § 51-4-2) allows the surviving spouse, children, or parents to file a wrongful death claim. The damages include the full value of the life of the deceased.
Learn more about our wrongful death representation ›Slip and Fall / Premises Liability
Mulberry's busy retail areas — including the Hamilton Mill commercial corridor anchored by Walmart and the surrounding shopping centers — see frequent slip and fall accidents. Georgia premises liability law places the burden on the injured person to prove the property owner knew or should have known about the hazardous condition. These cases require fast evidence preservation (security footage, witness statements, incident reports) before the property owner makes the hazard disappear.
Learn more about our slip and fall representation ›DUI Accidents
If you were struck by a drunk or impaired driver in Mulberry, you may be entitled to both compensatory and punitive damages. Your personal injury claim against the impaired driver is entirely separate from the criminal charges they face. Whether the crash happened on SR-316, Buford Drive, or in the Hamilton Mill area, an experienced attorney makes sure you pursue the full compensation available under Georgia law.
Learn more about our DUI accident representation ›Dog Bites
Under Georgia's dog bite statute (O.C.G.A. § 51-2-7), dog owners are liable when they knew or should have known their dog was dangerous, or when the animal was not properly restrained. Dog bite injuries in Mulberry's growing residential subdivisions range from puncture wounds to severe lacerations and infection. Victims can recover compensation for medical treatment, scarring, and emotional distress.
Learn more about our dog bite representation ›Medical Malpractice
Medical malpractice cases involve healthcare provider negligence — surgical errors, misdiagnosis, delayed treatment, and medication mistakes at the hospitals and clinics serving the Mulberry area. Georgia requires an expert affidavit before a malpractice lawsuit can proceed, and the medical evidence in these cases is complex. We work with qualified medical experts to build cases that hold negligent providers accountable.
Learn more about our medical malpractice representation ›Apartment Shooting Victims
When an apartment complex in Mulberry fails to provide adequate security — missing locks, broken gates, poor lighting, or no security patrols — and a resident or visitor is shot, the property owner may be liable under Georgia premises liability law. These negligent security claims are separate from any criminal prosecution of the shooter. We pursue compensation from property owners who failed in their duty to protect the people on their premises.

Mulberry's worst accident locations follow the major commuter corridors and the Hamilton Mill commercial area.
SR-316 and Buford Drive
This intersection sits at the heart of Mulberry and has been ranked the deadliest in all of Gwinnett County, with multiple fatalities recorded in recent years. The high speeds of SR-316 colliding with cross traffic from Buford Drive produce severe injury and fatal accidents.
SR-316 and Fence Road
One of Gwinnett's most chaotic intersections. The lack of a traffic signal at this SR-316 crossing forces drivers to gauge gaps in high-speed traffic, producing T-bone collisions when they misjudge.
Hamilton Mill Road Corridor
The Hamilton Mill commercial area — anchored by the Walmart and surrounding retail — generates constant traffic conflicts. Drivers entering and exiting the shopping areas, combined with cut-through commuter traffic, produce regular rear-end and angle collisions.
Highway 124 and Hamilton Mill Road
This intersection on the edge of Mulberry has struggled to keep up with population growth. Heavy retail and residential traffic produces accidents at nearly every time of day.
Buford Drive (GA-20)
GA-20 carries commuter and commercial traffic through Mulberry. Speed and distracted driving make this corridor a consistent source of accidents.
What to Do After an Accident in Mulberry
If you are involved in an accident in Mulberry:
Call 911
A Gwinnett County police or Georgia State Patrol report creates the official record your case will rely on.
Get medical attention
Northside Hospital Gwinnett (in Lawrenceville) and Northside Hospital Duluth are the closest emergency rooms. Some injuries — concussions, spinal injuries, soft tissue damage — take days to show symptoms.
Document everything
Photographs of vehicles, the intersection, road conditions, your injuries. Get the other driver's insurance and witness contact information.
Do not give recorded statements to the insurance company
The insurance company will call quickly. Politely decline until you have a lawyer.
Contact a personal injury lawyer
The sooner you have representation, the faster evidence can be preserved.
How Insurance Companies Try to Lowball Gwinnett Accident Victims
In 15 years handling Georgia accident cases, I have watched insurance companies use the same tactics against Gwinnett County residents:
Fast lowball settlement offers
Designed to close your file before you understand the full cost of your injuries. These initial offers rarely cover future medical treatment, lost earning capacity, or pain and suffering.
Recorded statement traps
Friendly-sounding questions designed to capture any statement that can be twisted and used against you later.
Disputes over medical care
Arguing you waited too long to seek treatment, that your treatment was excessive, or that your injuries were pre-existing and not caused by the accident.
Long delays
Stalling tactics designed to pressure you into accepting less than your case is worth because you need money now.
A personal injury attorney handles the insurer directly, removes the pressure, and protects your case from every angle.
