Wrongful Death

Settlement over twenty times the prior offer
We filed a law-suit, and shortly thereafter we obtained a settlement over twenty times the prior offer.
A driver that was illegally taking opioids
Our Firm helped a gentleman that was hit by a driver that was illegally taking opioids, which affected his driving. This caused serious injuries to our client. We had multiple depositions, worked with a toxicologist and other experts, and were ultimately able to obtain a very large, and confidential settlement, for our very deserving client.
Five times the initial offer
We received a referral case from another attorney. It was a hit and run case with a low offer, which is common for these types of cases. After our firm filed suit, we were able to take the case to mediation and settled for 5 times the initial offer.
Five times the initial offer
Following mediation, the insurance company ended up agreeing to pay 2.5 times the amount of its prior statutory offer of settlement to resolve the case and avoid a jury trial.
Recently settled at mediation for a confidential, but significant amount
We represented a very nice Hispanic lady that was severely injured when a thermos she was carrying blew up causing her eye damage. We spent significant time and resources on this case, and working with another Firm, recently settled at mediation for a confidential, but significant amount. Our client and her family were thrilled that we took the time, and the risk, to assist in this very serious matter.
Settlement over six times the previous offer
We recently represented a man that was bitten by a dog, that was not on a leash and not restrained as required by the applicable laws and ordinances. The initial offer to this gentleman did not even cover his medical bills. Our firm took over his case, and we secured a settlement of over six times the previous offer. We were happy to secure a great settlement for one of many dog bites cases that we handle every year.

Compassionate Legal Help from Wrongful Death Attorneys in Atlanta

WE DON’T BACK DOWN FROM A TRIAL

A wrongful death claim is a civil action that allows family members to seek financial damages for the loss of a loved one caused by someone else’s negligence or recklessness. Although no amount of money can fully compensate for the emotional pain of losing a relative, filing a lawsuit can help bring some measure of justice. It also allows the victim’s family or beneficiaries to hold those responsible accountable.

The laws vary by state, but wrongful death suits usually offer financial support to the victim’s family, especially their spouse and children. At Fry | Goehring, our compassionate wrongful death attorneys in Atlanta know that handling funeral costs, hospital bills, and other expenses after a loss can be overwhelming. Our team will stand by you to fight for the compensation you deserve, helping you find peace of mind to focus on healing.

Contact us now at (404) 969-1284 so the trustworthy attorneys at Fry | Goehring can provide a fortress of stability during this difficult time.

How Wrongful Death Works in the State of Georgia

If a loved one has passed away due to someone else’s negligence, the first step is to establish that the party involved clearly showed negligence in their actions. For example, doctors are obligated to provide appropriate care to their patients. If the doctor—or even a whole group of medical practitioners—breached this duty by not taking reasonable steps to prevent harm or neglecting necessary tests and procedures, they could be held responsible for the death.
Besides proving negligence, our wrongful death lawyers must also demonstrate that this failure directly caused your family member’s death and that you and other surviving relatives have experienced significant emotional and financial hardship as a result.

Wrongful Death Damages in Atlanta

When you are demonstrating that you and your family have endured tremendous emotional and financial pain following a wrongful death, there are a number of elements for which you can seek compensation, ranging from expenses for funeral services to medical bills. In certain cases, even punitive damages are allowed, which serve as punishment if the perpetrator has behaved in an especially egregious manner.

Some examples of the different kinds of damages you can claim include:

  • Physical, mental, and emotional pain endured by the deceased prior to their early death
  • The suffering endured by you and surviving families from losing your loved one
  • The loss of wages that the deceased would have contributed to the family
  • Fees for childcare now that the deceased can no longer provide this support
  • Loss of retirement benefits and rewards

Taking Proactive Steps Following Your Loved One’s Wrongful Death

Every state has specific statutes that allow certain family members a limited window to file a claim or lawsuit against those responsible for a wrongful death. Acting promptly is critical to ensure a thorough investigation and a solid case.

If a loved one has passed away due to negligence, contact our wrongful death attorneys in Atlanta right away. We are ready to help you collect evidence, determine liability, and pursue justice for your loss.
