Compensation for Damages
In Georgia, damages for wrongful death claims can vary. Typically, the estate is entitled to special and general damages. Special damages include things like medical bills, lost wages and future lost wages, funeral and burial expenses. General damages include subjective things like actual pain and suffering, loss of life, loss of ability to earn, shock of impact, loss of consortium (i.e. loss of spousal duties like intimacy, and parenting), emotional anguish, etc. It is critical to retain a Georgia Wrongful Death Attorney experienced with recovering all available types of damages for your wrongful death case.
Who can bring a Wrongful Death Claim in Georgia?
In Georgia, the family, or the executor of the decedent’s estate may bring a Georgia Wrongful Death Claim. Georgia’s Wrongful Death Act, O.C.G.A. § 51-4-2 states that the family of the deceased person can make a claim for “the full value of the life of the decedent.” In other words, the family, or the estate can file a wrongful death claim in Georgia. Keep in mind, time is a critical factor. In Georgia, the most common statute of limitation for Wrongful Death claims is two (2) years from the date of the decedent’s death (O.C.G.A. § 9-3-33). If the decedent was killed by a governmental entity that time limit could be as early as six months after the decedent’s death.


What is the “Full Value of Life”?
In Georgia, the “full value of life” is determined mainly by economic, and non-economic factors. The jury may consider the Decedent’s age, physical health, and profession. Jurors may also consider the personality, recreational, and philanthropic values of the decedent. When bringing a full value of life claim, we are really developing evidence to show the jury how impactful and important the decedent’s life was to so many people. As your Georgia Wrongful Death Attorneys we see no higher honor than telling our client’s intimate story of life, love, and loss to the jury.
