How your Georgia claim gets built

Our lemon law work is directed by Steven P. Nassi, Esq., Managing Partner, Easy Lemon by RockPoint Law P.C. A Georgia claim gets built on two things: the Georgia lemon law statute, and the federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, which applies in all fifty states. Send the repair orders and the purchase or lease paperwork, and we can tell you which of the two fits your vehicle.

Atlanta Lemon Law

Atlanta Lemon Law Basics

In Atlanta, as anywhere else in Georgia, a lemon law claim is brought under Ga. Code §10-1-780 to §10-1-795. The statute covers new motor vehicles purchased or leased in Georgia for personal, family, or household use, but being covered is only the start. The car also has to reach one of the repair limits in the box above, with the defect still unrepaired and the deadline not yet passed. If it does, you may have a claim. Our Georgia Lemon Law Attorneys page goes through the statute text, the filing deadlines and used cars in more detail.

We File the Claim

We write and send the paperwork, including the notice to the manufacturer by statutory overnight delivery or certified mail, return receipt requested, that Georgia law requires. We deal with the manufacturer for you.

You Get Compensated

Ga. Code §10-1-780 to §10-1-795

Is Your Atlanta Car a Lemon? Georgia's 3-Step Test

Does the Defect Substantially Impair Use, Value, or Safety?

Under Georgia law, the defect has to substantially impair the vehicle's use, value, or safety.

Have You Met the Repair Attempt Threshold?

In Georgia the test is 3 repair attempts for the same defect (1 for serious safety defects) or 30 cumulative calendar days out of service, as long as the claim is brought within the deadline in step 3. For a defect that could cause serious bodily injury or death, 1 repair attempt is enough. Count the visits on your repair orders to see where you stand.

Did It Happen Within the Rights Period?

In Georgia, you must apply for state arbitration within 1 year after the lemon law rights period ends, or within 60 days after a certified manufacturer program's decision if that is later. The rights period is 2 years or 24,000 miles from delivery, whichever comes first. We check that deadline against the delivery date on your contract and the dates on your repair orders.

If you are not sure about your dates, call us. The consultation is free. 📞 (855) 435-3666

If you think you are past a deadline, call us anyway. We may still be able to help.

DeKalb County & Fulton County

Court and Venue in Atlanta

Parts of Atlanta lie in DeKalb County and Fulton County, per the 2020 Census. Their general civil trial courts are the Superior Court of DeKalb County (DeKalb Judicial Circuit) and the Superior Court of Fulton County (Atlanta Judicial Circuit). Georgia also has a lower court for smaller civil claims, so the amount in dispute can change where a case is filed. Which court hears a particular case still depends on its facts, the warranty issues involved and the law it is brought under.

The Georgia lemon law is Ga. Code §10-1-780 to §10-1-795. If the manufacturer's arbitration program is state-certified, the consumer must use it.

The repair test in the statute is 3 repair attempts for the same defect (or 1 for serious safety defects), or 30 cumulative calendar days with the vehicle out of service. The statutory remedy is a replacement vehicle or a full refund, minus a reasonable offset for use. The state arbitration panel may award attorney fees to a consumer who prevails. If the manufacturer appeals and the consumer prevails in court, the recovery includes attorney fees and court costs.

What the Statute Says

Georgia Lemon Law: The Rules That Decide an Atlanta Claim

Court and Venue above gives you the repair test and the arbitration rule. Georgia law adds a few rules on top of those, and they follow.

Notable provisions of Georgia Lemon Law

Georgia requires the consumer to notify the manufacturer by statutory overnight delivery or certified mail, return receipt requested, once a reasonable number of repair attempts has been reached. The manufacturer then has 28 days to make a final attempt to repair. One repair attempt is sufficient for a serious safety defect. Trucks over 12,000 lbs gross vehicle weight rating, motorcycles, and golf carts are excluded.

Your Rights Under Georgia Law

What The Manufacturer Owes You

Georgia law provides for a replacement vehicle or a full refund, minus a reasonable offset for use. There are three ways a qualifying case from Atlanta usually ends.

Refund

Give the car back and the manufacturer repays the price you paid, with the taxes, registration fees and finance charges. A reasonable use offset comes off that amount.

Replacement Vehicle

The manufacturer hands you a comparable new car and pays the cost of the exchange.

Cash Settlement

The car stays yours and the manufacturer pays for the value the defect took off it. You will not find this option in the statute. It is reached by negotiation.

Have Questions?

Frequently Asked Questions

The answers below are based on Georgia law and on the paperwork Atlanta drivers usually send us.

PROCESS & TIMELINE

Most of the Georgia cases we handle settle at the written-demand stage, without a lawsuit. How long that takes depends on your repair history and on the manufacturer. In Georgia, you must apply for state arbitration within 1 year after the lemon law rights period ends, or within 60 days after a certified manufacturer program's decision if that is later. The rights period is 2 years or 24,000 miles from delivery, whichever comes first.

Usually not. Most lemon law cases we handle for Atlanta drivers settle with the manufacturer before a lawsuit is filed. In Georgia, you must use the manufacturer's arbitration program first if it is state-certified. We prepare that filing for you.

ELIGIBILITY

Ga. Code §10-1-780 to §10-1-795 covers new motor vehicles purchased or leased in Georgia for personal, family, or household use. If you bought used, send the paperwork anyway, including any written warranty that came with the car.

We handle warranty defects that substantially impair the car's use, value or safety and that the dealer could not fix. The defects we see most often are engine stalling and misfires, transmission shudder or failure, electrical faults, brake and steering problems, and driver-assist systems that brake or drift on their own.

REMEDIES

Under Ga. Code §10-1-780 to §10-1-795, the remedy is a replacement vehicle or a full refund, minus a reasonable offset for use. Which one you get depends on your repair history and on what the manufacturer offers.

ATTORNEY & TRUST

No. Our offices are in Manhasset NY, Newark NJ, Miami FL and Dallas TX. We handle Georgia cases by phone, email and e-signature. You upload your repair orders, your contract and your warranty booklet. We send the demand letter and handle the settlement paperwork. Nothing in Ga. Code §10-1-780 to §10-1-795 requires you to appear anywhere to open a claim.

Client Testimonials

What Our Clients Are Saying

Easy Lemon has handled 3,000+ lemon law cases^‡.

“My Jeep Wrangler's manual transmission would pop out of reverse. Dealer kept it twice, said they couldn't replicate. Third time they replaced the shifter. Still popped out. I was backing out of my driveway and it nearly rolled into the street. Called Easy Lemon and Natalie Nassi said that's a major safety defect. She took my case and Jeep bought it back. Now I drive something that stays in gear.”

“My Ram 2500's check engine light came on for the same evap code four times in six months. Dealer kept replacing gas caps, sensors, the whole runaround. Light would stay off for a week then pop back on. I was so tired of seeing that orange glow on my dash every morning. Called Easy Lemon and they took my service records and ran with it. Four months later, Ram sent a settlement check. No more anxiety every time I start the truck.”

I truly appreciate their support, transparency, and dedication throughout the entire process. They kept me informed and made sure my rights were protected every step of the way.

If you’re ever in a similar situation, I highly recommend Easylemon. They really know what they’re doing and genuinely care about their clients.
