Wrongful Death Lawyers

Serving Atlanta, Georgia

Wrongful death exists when an action occurs that not only causes the death of the victim, but also injuries to the people who depended on the victim for financial or emotional support. Acts that may result in wrongful death include reckless driving, medical malpractice, intentional acts such as murder, or negligence on the part of a person, company or entity.

The following must exist in order to bring a wrongful death suit:

The death of a human being (the decedent)
Death was caused by another's negligence
The survival of family members who are suffering monetary injury as a result of the death, and
The appointment of a personal representative for the decedent's estate.

Financial injury is the main measure of damages in a wrongful death action. This may include the loss of support, services, prospect of inheritance, and medical and funeral expenses. Most laws state that the damages awarded for a wrongful death will be fair and just compensation for the financial injuries resulting from the decedent's death. A Robbins & Associates wrongful death attorney will review the facts of your case and help determine the amount of damages to which you and your family are entitled.
