Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is a wrongful death case the same as a criminal case?

    No. Criminal charges (like DUI or manslaughter) are handled by the state. A wrongful death claim is a civil case — where your family can pursue compensation directly.

  • How long do we have to file?

    Most wrongful death claims in Georgia must be filed within two years. But exceptions can apply, especially if there’s a criminal investigation.

  • Will we have to go to court?

    Not always. Many cases settle. But if a trial is what it takes to get justice, we’re ready.
