They Should Still Be Here. We Help Make It Right.
Losing someone you love is always hard—but when their death was caused by someone else’s carelessness or bad decisions, it’s even harder. You deserve answers. You deserve accountability. And if you choose, you can take legal action to pursue both.
We help Georgia families file wrongful death claims after fatal accidents, medical mistakes, and other preventable tragedies. While no amount of money can make this okay, it can ease the burden—and send a message that their life mattered.

Common Questions About Wrongful Death:
How long do I have to file a wrongful death claim in Georgia?
Usually two years from the date of death, but exceptions can shorten or extend that time. Let’s talk as soon as you’re ready.
Do I have to go to court?
Not always. Many cases settle out of court, but we’ll be ready to go to trial if that’s what it takes to get real justice.
Will this affect any criminal case?
No. A wrongful death claim is a civil case—it can move forward whether or not criminal charges are filed.
