The Personal Injury Claim Process:
Nearly all personal injury cases arise from the legal concept known as negligence. When someone is negligent, that means that person or company acted, or failed to act, in such a manner to prevent injuries to another person. Once it is proven that the negligent person is liable (“responsible” or “at-fault”), then the injured person is entitled to compensation for his or her past and future medical bills, past and future lost wages, past and future pain and suffering, property damage, and any property damage.
Beware, that in most cases, an injured person only has two years from the date of the accident or incident in which to bring his or her claim against the negligent person. If the injured person does not resolve his or her claim against the negligent person or file a lawsuit against the negligent person before the expiration of these two years, then the injured person may forever lose his or her rights to recover compensation from the negligent person.
As such, it is important that you contact an attorney as soon as possible after you are involved in an accident or incident in order to make sure your legal rights are protected. Call the Momtahan Law Firm at 470-284-2500 for a free consultation.

Wills & Probate Law
A Will is a legal document that directs your probate assets after your death, i.e. who or what organization will receive your assets upon your death. A Will also provides who will be your personal representative, or the person who will carry out your wishes upon your death. A Will may also identify who will be the guardian of your minor children in the event no legal parent survives. The Will is the most important estate planning document because it is your opportunity to make sure your final wishes are carried out.
Other important estate planning documents include a Power of Attorney and an Advanced Health Care Directive (formerly known as a “living will”). A Power of Attorney appoints an individual (called an “agent”) to carry out your day-to-day obligations should you be deemed incapacitated as defined in the Power of Attorney.
The Advanced Health Care Directive allows you to (1) state your treatment preferences in the event you have a terminal condition or are deemed to be in an incapacitated state, and (2) appoint an individual (an “agent”) to make healthcare decisions on your behalf in the event you have a terminal condition or are deemed to be in an incapacitated state. The Advanced Directive also allows your agent to review your healthcare records and discuss your healthcare condition with your doctors.
The Momtahan Law Firm’s Estate Planning Package includes the drafting of a Will, Power of Attorney, and Advanced Health Care Directive.
Further, Matthew Momtahan has been appointed by west Georgia’s probate courts in hundreds of cases to represent clients in matters involving probating intestate estates (when someone dies without a will), representing adults in need of guardians and conservators, representing minors in need of guardians and conservators, representing wards, administering estates, and representing clients who have been voluntarily or involuntarily hospitalized due to mental health issues or mental illness. These appointments have provided Matthew with a deep understanding and familiarity with probate courts in west Georgia.
A family member or friend maybe asked to take guardianship or conservatorship over a loved one when the loved one no longer has the capacity to make decisions for themselves or participate in activities of daily living. This incapacitation maybe the result of the onset of dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, or other illness or injury.
