About Savannah Personal Injury Lawyer – Jamie Casino

Jamie Casino is a personal injury attorney based in Savannah, Georgia, admitted to the Georgia Bar in 2005. He is the owner and managing attorney of Jamie Casino Injury Attorneys, which represents injured clients across Georgia and South Carolina from offices in Savannah, Augusta, and Columbia.

BACKGROUND & CREDENTIALS

 Jamie earned his Juris Doctor from Barry University, graduating summa cum laude. Born in Bristol, Pennsylvania, he was the first lawyer in his family. He began his legal career in criminal defense, where he built a reputation as an aggressive advocate for his clients, before shifting his practice entirely to personal injury after his younger brother was killed in a case of mistaken identity.

APPROACH TO CASES

Jamie’s symbol is the “sledgehammer of justice,” and he describes his approach as “Tough Justice” — an aggressive, no-back-down style built to counter large insurance companies and corporations. In 2017, he and his legal team secured a landmark, record-breaking jury verdict against a drunk driver who injured one of his clients. He lives by the philosophy of speaking for those who cannot speak for themselves.

Frequently Asked Questions

In Georgia, you generally have two years from the date of the injury to file a personal injury lawsuit, under O.C.G.A. § 9-3-33. Exceptions can apply for minors or claims against government entities. Jamie Casino can review your case to confirm your specific deadline.

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

Georgia follows a modified comparative negligence rule: you can recover damages as long as you are less than 50% at fault, with your compensation reduced by your percentage of fault. If you are found 50% or more at fault, you cannot recover anything, under O.C.G.A. § 51-12-33.

What if I was partially at fault for my accident in Georgia?

After his younger brother was killed in a case of mistaken identity, Jamie Casino shifted his entire practice to representing injury victims, dedicating his firm exclusively to helping people harmed by the negligence of others.

Why did Jamie Casino switch from criminal defense to personal injury law?

Jamie represents clients in car, truck, motorcycle, bicycle, and boating accidents, workers’ compensation claims, premises liability, nursing home abuse, traumatic brain injuries, and wrongful death cases.

What types of cases does Jamie Casino handle in Savannah?

No. The firm works on a contingency fee basis, meaning clients pay nothing unless the firm recovers compensation through a settlement or verdict.
