Personal Injury
Representation When You Have Been Injured
Across Atlanta, injuries can happen in unexpected ways. For example, serious dog bites are a concern in neighborhoods like Midtown, Old Fourth Ward, and Grant Park, where crowded sidewalks and popular dog parks increase the risk of animal encounters.
Severe slip-and-fall accidents are common in the busy shopping centers of Buckhead or at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, where spills and poorly maintained walkways can cause devastating injuries.
Even chiropractic errors have led to long-term spinal problems for residents seeking alternative care in neighborhoods from Decatur to Sandy Springs.
When you have been injured in an accident, you may face an uncertain future. Medical bills and lost wages create a financial burden, your recovery is physically stressful and your situation is likely emotionally taxing as well. During this difficult time, you deserve to have a strong personal injury lawyer as an advocate by your side.
At Prieto, Marigliano & Prieto, LLC, we have focused our legal work on protecting the rights of injury victims like you. We will provide you with personalized attention, and we will work to fully understand your injuries and their impact. We know that facing insurance companies, businesses or even members of the community can be challenging, but we will ensure that you don’t face the legal, financial, medical and emotional challenges of your personal injury claim alone.
Skilled Representation for a Wide Array of Cases
Our attorneys have experience representing victims in many different personal injury cases, including:
Burn Injuries
Whether you were at a campfire, cooking over hot oil, or working in an auto shop—burn injuries are serious and need to be treated as soon as possible. Sometimes, burn injuries can occur when you least expect them, as when WSB-TV reported that eight people were hospitalized in Sept. 2025 after an apartment fire broke out around 3:30 a.m.
While your first thought after suffering a serious burn injury should be to call 911 and get immediate medical attention, your second call should be to PMP’s personal injury lawyers so you can get compensation for time off work and the medical bills that come with your injury.
Catastrophic Injury and Wrongful Death
No one expects to have a loved one to be seriously injured or pass away due to another’s negligence or utter disregard for safety. When this happens, you can count on our personal injury lawyers to help you get the justice and compensation your family deserves. We handle every aspect of your case including:
- Gathering evidence
- Locating witnesses
- Filing paperwork
- Communicating with insurance companies
Nothing matters more than the closure you and your family deserve.
Dog Bites and Other Animal Attacks
Animal attacks can feel sudden and traumatizing. While the last thing you may think about is receiving compensation for this traumatizing experience—you can count on our dog bite injury lawyers to help. You can count on us to help you get medical attention and reimbursement for costs associated with your injuries, while also ensuring that the pet owner is held accountable for their animal’s actions.
Traumatic Brain Injuries and Spinal Cord Injuries
While uncommon events, brain injuries and spinal cord injuries are, but when they happen they can be especially traumatic and life-altering. We understand that no amount of money can replace what you’ve lost, but we will make sure to fight for your rights in court so that you get whatever compensation is available for your injuries.
Premises Liability Accidents, Including Negligent Security
If you or a loved one have been injured as a result of an accident on someone else’s property, our personal injury lawyers are here to help. We will work vigorously to ensure that the responsible party is held accountable for their negligence.
No matter what type of personal injury you’ve experienced, there is no substitute for quality legal representation.
Accidents Involving Elevators or Escalators
One of the biggest issues with elevator and escalator injuries is that if it happened to you, it can happen to someone else. In Sept. 2021, 11Alive reported that an 18-year-old student was killed after an elevator in a mixed-use building in Atlanta collapsed while he was in it.
By holding the responsible party accountable for devastating and often fatal elevator accidents such as these, victims and their families can create a wave of positive change.
Slip-and-Fall Accidents
Our personal injury lawyers know how to combat slip-and-fall accidents. Especially when you begin to age, slip-and-fall accidents can lead to serious repercussions. Getting back on your feet is a whole lot easier with our team of dedicated personal injury lawyers.
Liability for Defective Products
When you purchase a product, you don’t expect it to be defective and cause you serious harm. But if it does, our personal injury lawyers will help make sure that you are compensated for your medical bills, lost wages, and yes, especially pain and suffering.
Day Care Center Injuries
Parents trust day care centers with their children’s safety, but negligence such as inadequate supervision, unsafe play equipment, or improper staff training can lead to serious harm. Falls, choking hazards, or even abuse may leave children with physical and emotional scars. Our team helps hold negligent facilities accountable and pursue justice for families.
Cosmetology, Salon, or Barber Injuries
What should be a routine appointment can quickly turn dangerous when salons or barbershops fail to follow proper safety and sanitation practices. Clients can suffer burns from chemicals, infections from unsterilized tools, or permanent scarring from botched treatments. We represent victims of negligence in these settings to recover compensation for their injuries.
Non-Emergency Medical Transportation Injuries
Patients often rely on non-emergency transport vans to get to doctor’s visits, dialysis appointments, or therapy sessions. Unfortunately, improper wheelchair securement, careless driving, or inadequate staff assistance can cause devastating falls and injuries. We advocate for vulnerable patients who were harmed by negligent transportation providers.
Nursing Home, Assisted Living Facility, or Personal Care Home Injuries
Families place loved ones in long-term care facilities expecting attentive and compassionate treatment. When facilities are understaffed or poorly managed, residents can suffer from bedsores, falls, medication errors, neglect, or abuse. Our firm works tirelessly to protect the elderly and vulnerable from these unacceptable conditions in all managed care facilities.
Oral Surgery or Dental Injuries
Oral and dental procedures require precision and care, yet mistakes can lead to nerve damage, infections, or disfigurement. Patients may also face serious complications from anesthesia errors during dental surgeries. We help victims of dental malpractice pursue accountability and financial recovery.
Medical or Dental Device Failures
When medical or dental devices such as implants, crowns, or joint replacements fail, patients can experience severe pain, infections, or long-term complications. These failures often stem from defective design, poor manufacturing, or improper implantation. We fight to hold manufacturers and providers responsible for the harm caused.
Chiropractic Malpractice
While chiropractic care is often sought for relief, errors in adjustment techniques can cause lasting spinal or neurological damage. Patients may suffer from herniated discs, strokes, or other catastrophic complications when chiropractors fail to meet professional standards. We help clients seek justice when trusted providers cause harm instead of healing.
Sexual Assault
Survivors of sexual assault endure not only physical trauma but also profound emotional and psychological harm. Assaults may occur in settings where safety should be guaranteed, such as workplaces, schools, or care facilities. Our attorneys approach these cases with compassion and determination, seeking both justice and the resources survivors need to begin healing.
