Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I have a wrongful death case in Georgia?

If your loved one died because of another person’s negligence, reckless behavior, or misconduct, you may have grounds for a wrongful death claim. Common cases involve car accidents, truck crashes, medical errors, unsafe property conditions, and workplace accidents.

Who can file a wrongful death claim in Georgia?

Georgia law typically allows spouses, children, parents, or the representative of the estate to file a wrongful death claim. The order of eligibility depends on family circumstances.

How long do I have to file a wrongful death lawsuit in Savannah?

In most cases, Georgia’s statute of limitations allows two years from the date of death to file a wrongful death claim. Certain factors can affect deadlines, so speaking with an attorney early matters.

What damages can be recovered in a wrongful death claim?

Compensation may include funeral expenses, medical costs, lost wages and benefits, loss of companionship, and the full value of the life of the deceased person.

How much does it cost to hire a wrongful death lawyer?

Most wrongful death attorneys work on a contingency fee basis. That means you do not pay upfront legal fees, and attorney fees are only collected if compensation is recovered for your case.
