Your Wrongful Death Questions, Answered

What damages may be awarded in a wrongful death case?

  • What qualifies as a wrongful death claim in Georgia?

    A wrongful death claim arises when someone dies due to another party’s negligence, recklessness, or intentional actions — including medical malpractice, vehicle crashes, or unsafe premises incidents.

  • Who can file a wrongful death lawsuit in Georgia?

    Typically, the surviving spouse, children, or parents can file a claim, but specific rules depend on the family’s circumstances and the case’s details.

  • What compensation is available in a wrongful death case?

    Families may seek compensation for funeral expenses, lost income, future financial support, and the emotional pain and suffering caused by the loss.

  • How do Atlanta wrongful death attorneys prove negligence?

    We investigate the incident, gather evidence, consult with experts across Atlanta and Fulton County, and build a case showing how negligence directly caused your loved one’s death.

  • How long do I have to file a wrongful death claim in Georgia?

    In Georgia, families have two years from the date of death to file a wrongful death lawsuit.

  • Do all wrongful death cases go to trial?

    Many settle before trial, but our Atlanta wrongful death lawyers prepare every case for court, ensuring we’re ready to fight if settlement offers fall short.
