Frequently Asked Questions

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

A wrongful death case may exist when someone’s life is taken because another person or business acted carelessly, recklessly, or intentionally. We review the facts, the police reports, and other information, then explain how Georgia law applies. A free consultation is often the easiest way to get clarity.

How much does it cost to hire your firm?

We work on a contingency fee basis, which means you do not pay us upfront. Our fee is a percentage of any recovery, and we are paid only if we obtain compensation for your family. We also offer free consultations so you can understand this structure before deciding.

Who can file a wrongful death claim in Georgia?

Georgia law usually gives the surviving spouse the first right to file, often including claims on behalf of minor children. If there is no spouse, children, parents, or the estate’s representative may have that role. We review your family’s situation and explain who may be able to bring the claim.

How long will a wrongful death case take?

The length of a case depends on factors such as the complexity of the facts, the number of parties involved, and whether the case settles or goes to trial. Some resolve in months, others take longer. We keep you updated and discuss timing openly as the case progresses.

Will pursuing a claim be too stressful for my family?

Many families worry about this, which is why our attorneys handle the legal details and communication with insurers. We work to minimize the demands on your time, meet in places convenient for you, and explain decisions clearly. Our goal is to protect your rights while you focus on your family.
