Brunswick is the county seat of Glynn County and the gateway city to Georgia’s Golden Isles — St. Simons Island, Jekyll Island, and Sea Island. The combination of year-round tourist traffic on US-17 and US-341, I-95 freight movement, and the causeway corridors creates dangerous driving conditions throughout the year. If you were hurt in a Brunswick accident, Georgia law gives you real legal remedies — but the deadline waits for no one.
