Wrongful Death Claims
When negligence, recklessness, or criminal conduct takes a life, Georgia law gives surviving family members a path to accountability. We understand the emotional and physical toll this takes — and we fight to get you justice.
Your Family Deserves Answers — and Accountability
Under Georgia law, wrongful death is defined as the death of a person caused by the negligent, reckless, intentional, or criminal acts of another. Only certain individuals may file — typically the surviving spouse, then children, then parents or estate representatives. Georgia also recognizes two distinct types of claims: the wrongful death claim (covering the full financial and intangible value of the life lost) and a separate estate claim for losses suffered by the estate itself.
These cases are complex, emotional, and time-sensitive. Georgia's statute of limitations is two years from the date of death. The responsible party may be actively working to hide or destroy evidence. We gather facts, conduct independent investigations when needed, and build the case that proves negligence and pursues maximum compensation — all on a contingency basis, so you pay nothing unless we recover.
