When Tragedy Strikes, You Don’t Have to Navigate Alone
Losing a loved one to a preventable accident is devastating. Medical bills, funeral costs, and the loss of companionship add to the pain and confusion. Our Marietta wrongful death attorney provides clear guidance, emotional support, and powerful advocacy to families in Cobb County and the Atlanta area. We work to hold the responsible parties accountable, so you can focus on healing and honoring your loved one’s memory.
Understanding Your Rights After a Preventable Loss
Wrongful death claims can arise from car, truck, and pedestrian accidents, dangerous premises, medical errors, or defective products. If someone’s carelessness or a company’s negligence caused your loved one’s death, Georgia law allows certain family members to seek compensation for both the financial and personal losses suffered.
Loss of financial support and benefits
Medical and funeral expenses
Loss of companionship, care, and guidance
Pain and suffering of the deceased (in some cases)
If you’re unsure if you have a claim, we offer a confidential, no-cost consultation to explain your rights.
