Serving Injury Victims in Tucker and Surrounding Georgia Communities

Tucker sits at the heart of DeKalb County, where I-285 and US-78 (Stone Mountain Freeway) intersect in one of metro Atlanta's most congested traffic corridors. The I-285/US-78 interchange is consistently ranked among Georgia's most dangerous, with rear-end collisions, sideswipe crashes, and multi-vehicle pile-ups occurring daily. Residents of Tucker, Stone Mountain, Lithonia, and Decatur face serious accident risks every time they merge onto the Perimeter.

DeKalb County Superior Court, located in Decatur, handles major personal injury litigation for the county. Mark Link has tried cases in DeKalb County courts for over three decades and understands the local judges, jury pools, and litigation dynamics that determine case outcomes. That local knowledge is a strategic advantage that out-of-county firms simply cannot replicate.

Mark Link Law is based in Tucker at 2142 Vista Dale Court — making this firm uniquely positioned to serve DeKalb County injury victims. When you are hurt in a crash on Lawrenceville Highway, Memorial Drive, or Rockbridge Road, you need an attorney who knows these roads, these courts, and this community. Mark handles every case personally, with no handoffs to paralegals or junior associates.

Frequently Asked Questions

Tucker Personal Injury Questions

Which court handles personal injury lawsuits in DeKalb County?

Personal injury cases in DeKalb County are filed in DeKalb County State Court for claims under $25,000 or DeKalb County Superior Court for larger claims. Mark Link has litigated cases in both courts for over 30 years and is familiar with local judges and procedures.

How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Georgia?

Georgia's statute of limitations for personal injury claims is generally two years from the date of the accident. For wrongful death claims, the two-year period runs from the date of death. Missing this deadline permanently bars your claim, so contact Mark Link as soon as possible after your injury.

What if the driver who hit me on I-285 was uninsured?

Georgia law requires all drivers to carry minimum liability insurance, but many do not comply. If you are hit by an uninsured driver, your own uninsured motorist (UM) coverage applies. Mark Link will identify all available insurance sources and pursue maximum recovery on your behalf.

Can I still recover if I was partially at fault for the accident?

Yes. Georgia follows a modified comparative fault rule. You can recover damages as long as you were less than 50% at fault. Your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault. Mark Link works to minimize any fault attributed to you and maximize your total compensation.

Does Mark Link Law charge upfront fees?

No. Mark Link Law works on a contingency fee basis — you pay nothing unless we recover compensation for you. There are no upfront costs, no hourly fees, and no out-of-pocket expenses. You only pay if we win your case.
