Q: Can i take the driver to court when the insurece company is not working with me
A:
There is not an incredible amount of detail in your question, so I have to make some assumptions. I assume that you were injured in an automobile accident and the insurance company for the at fault driver is not working with you to settle the claim. If you were injured in an automobile accident, and the statute of limitations has not passed*, you can file a lawsuit in small claims court (for claims of up to $15,000), state court or superior court.
If you are thinking of taking the other driver to court, I strongly recommend that you consult with an experienced attorney who can review your case and pursue the claim on your behalf.
*Note: Generally in Georgia you have two years to file a claim after an auto accident; however, there are important exceptions and you should consult an attorney about the specific details of your case to determine the statute of limitations that applies to your case.
