Spotlight: Paulding County, Georgia Courthouse - Including Hiram, GA and Dallas, GA
Much of my personal injury and workers' compensation practice involves Paulding County, Georgia, in one way or another. Paudling County, GA, which includes the cities of Dallas, Georgia and Hiram, Georgia, is one of the fastest growing areas in the United States. There are a growing number of employers in Paulding County. In recent years, I have noticed a growing trend of work accidents and on-the-job injuries from residents living and working in Paulding County. Of course, many Paulding County residents travel to work in areas such as Atlanta and Cobb County and come to me for help. Another trend I have noticed in Paulding County, particularly in Hiram, Georgia, is an increase in car accidents. I have also handled a number of truck accidents that happen in the rural western portion of Paulding County.
Paulding County's population, according to recent census numbers is just over 120,000.00. There have been plans to replace the old courthouse pictured here with a new courthouse. The present courthouse, located on The Square in Dallas, Georgia, was built in 1892. It is listed on the National Register of Historical Places. It was designed by Bruce & Morgan utilizing a Queen Anne architectural style. In 2001, the Paulding County Courthouse was targeted by an arsonist and partially burned.
