Understanding Georgia’s Wrongful Death Laws

Under Georgia law, there are two avenues for wrongful death compensation. One type of compensation is meant to compensate the deceased’s estate and is sought by the personal representative. The other is meant to compensate the estate for the cost of the deceased’s medical care, funeral preparations, pain and suffering, and other losses.

The law also recognizes that you and your family have suffered a tremendous loss. You have the right to seek compensation for your emotional trauma, loss of companionship and other effects of your loved one’s untimely death in a car accident or other accident.
