Losing a loved one due to another person’s negligence is a tragic occurrence that demands fair compensation. If you have recently lost a loved one in an accident, please consider contacting an Atlanta wrongful death lawyer at the respected Butler Kahn.
When someone you love and care about has been taken from you because of another person’s negligence, you will want to do everything possible to ease the grief. When thinking about what happened, you might feel intense emotional pain which causes you to avoid speaking to anyone about it. This is normal. But please understand that speaking with an attorney may help you and your family in the long run. Scheduling a consultation with an Atlanta wrongful death attorney does not commit you to take any legal action. But it will help to ensure that your decisions are informed.
Atlanta Wrongful Death Lawyer: Helping Families Seek Justice After a Preventable Loss
If someone you love died because of another person’s negligence, recklessness, or intentional actions, Georgia law allows surviving family members to pursue a wrongful death claim for financial compensation. Wrongful death claims in Atlanta frequently arise from fatal car accidents, commercial trucking crashes, medical malpractice, defective products, workplace accidents, and criminal acts like shootings or assaults. A wrongful death lawsuit can help cover funeral expenses, lost income, medical bills incurred before death, and the grief and emotional anguish your family has suffered. Butler Kahn is a personal injury law firm in Atlanta that focuses on serious injury and wrongful death cases. We prepare every case as if it’s going to trial, and we take fewer cases on purpose so we can do deeper work on each one.
Regardless of how your loved one died, if another party’s negligence or wrongdoing caused the death, you may have a legal claim. Under O.C.G.A. § 51-4-1, Georgia’s wrongful death statute allows the surviving spouse, children, parents, or estate representative to pursue compensation for the full value of the life of the deceased. Contact Butler Kahn by calling (678) 940-1444 or contacting us online for a free consultation with an Atlanta wrongful death attorney.
Why People in Atlanta Call Butler Kahn for Wrongful Death Cases

Butler Kahn handles serious wrongful death cases throughout Atlanta and across Georgia, and we bring a trial-focused approach to every case we accept. Wrongful death cases often require extensive investigation, expert witnesses, and aggressive litigation because insurance companies rarely offer fair compensation without a fight.
Fewer cases, more attention: We take on fewer cases on purpose so we can dedicate the time, resources, and attention your family deserves.

What Is Wrongful Death Under Georgia Law?
Wrongful death occurs when a person dies because of another person’s or entity’s negligent, reckless, or intentional actions. Under Georgia law, wrongful death is defined as the death of a human being that results from a crime, criminal negligence, or failure to exercise ordinary care. This legal definition encompasses a wide range of fatal incidents, from drunk driving crashes to medical errors to dangerous property conditions. The key element is that someone’s breach of their duty of care caused the death that could have been prevented.
An individual, company, government entity, or multiple parties may be held liable for wrongful death as long as evidence shows they negligently or intentionally caused harm that resulted in death. Wrongful death claims are civil lawsuits separate from any criminal charges. Even if the person who caused your loved one’s death has been charged with a crime like DUI or vehicular homicide, you can still pursue a wrongful death claim in civil court. The burden of proof in civil cases is lower than in criminal cases, meaning you may recover compensation even if the defendant is not criminally convicted.
Georgia recognizes two types of wrongful death claims. The first compensates survivors for their own losses, including lost income, companionship, and emotional anguish. The second, called an estate claim or survival action, compensates the estate for the deceased’s pain and suffering before death and for funeral expenses. Understanding which claims apply to your situation requires careful legal analysis based on the specific circumstances of your case. Our Georgia wrongful death lawyers can evaluate your situation and explain what options are available.
Filing a Wrongful Death Lawsuit in Atlanta
When a family member dies unexpectedly because of someone else’s negligence, the grief can be overwhelming. Dealing with funeral arrangements, financial hardships, and legal issues all at once places an enormous burden on surviving family members. This is especially true when the person who died was the primary breadwinner for the household or provided essential childcare and household services. A wrongful death lawsuit allows you to pursue compensation for the financial and emotional losses your family has suffered.
Under Georgia law, whatever damages are recovered in a wrongful death lawsuit are for the benefit of the victim’s spouse, children, parents, or next of kin. The lawsuit can be brought by either a family member of the victim or the executor of the victim’s estate. Georgia law determines which family members have standing to file, and this hierarchy is strictly enforced. An Atlanta wrongful death attorney can determine whether you have legal standing to file a lawsuit and explain what deadlines apply to your situation.
The wrongful death claims process involves several critical stages. First, we thoroughly investigate the circumstances of the death to identify all potentially liable parties. Then we gather evidence of negligence, including police reports, witness statements, medical records, expert opinions, and any available surveillance footage. We calculate your damages by analyzing the deceased’s income history, career trajectory, and the intangible value of their relationship with surviving family members. We then negotiate with insurance companies and, if they refuse to offer fair compensation, take the case to trial. Butler Kahn handles all of these steps so families can focus on grieving and healing while we pursue justice on their behalf.
Who Can File a Wrongful Death Claim in Georgia?
Georgia law establishes a specific hierarchy for who has the right to bring a wrongful death claim. Understanding who can file is critical because only certain family members have legal standing under the Georgia wrongful death statute. Filing by the wrong party can result in the case being dismissed, so determining proper standing should be the first step in any wrongful death case.
Surviving spouse: If the deceased was married, the surviving spouse has the primary right to bring a wrongful death claim. The spouse must share any recovery equally with surviving children, meaning each child receives an equal share of at least one-third of the total recovery.
Children: If there is no surviving spouse, the deceased’s children may bring the wrongful death claim. Minor children’s recoveries are typically managed by a guardian or held in trust until they reach adulthood.
Parents: If the deceased has no surviving spouse or children, the parents may file the claim. This commonly applies when the deceased was unmarried and childless.
Estate representative: If there is no surviving spouse, children, or parents, the personal representative of the estate may file the claim for the benefit of the next of kin. The estate representative is typically named in the deceased’s will or appointed by the probate court.
These rules determine not only who can file but also how damages will be distributed among surviving family members. When multiple family members are involved, disputes can arise about who should control the litigation and how settlement proceeds should be divided. Our Atlanta wrongful death lawyers can help you understand your rights based on your relationship to the deceased and work to resolve any family disputes that may arise.
Georgia’s Statute of Limitations for Wrongful Death
Georgia law generally gives surviving family members two years from the date of the victim’s death to file a wrongful death lawsuit. This deadline is strictly enforced, and missing it can result in losing your right to seek compensation entirely, regardless of how strong your case might be. However, several factors can affect this timeline, making it essential to consult with an attorney as soon as possible after a loved one’s death.
Ante Litem Notice for Government Claims
If a government agency or employee caused the death, you may have a much shorter deadline. This situation might arise if a government vehicle caused a fatal crash, if a government-owned property had dangerous conditions, or if a government facility failed to maintain safe premises. The notice requirement, called an “ante litem” notice, can be as short as six months for claims against cities, one year for claims against counties, and twelve months for claims against the state. This deadline is strictly enforced, and failure to provide proper notice will bar your claim entirely.
Tolling for Criminal Cases
The statute of limitations may be paused, or “tolled,” if the incident also involves criminal charges against the person who caused the death. Georgia law allows the statute of limitations to be suspended for up to six years or until the final resolution of the criminal case, whichever is shorter. Once the criminal case concludes with conviction, acquittal, or dismissal, the two-year period begins to run. This tolling provision ensures that families are not forced to rush their civil case while criminal proceedings are ongoing.
Discovery Rule Exceptions
In some cases, the cause of death may not be immediately apparent. For example, if someone dies from an undiagnosed medical condition caused by a doctor’s negligence, or from delayed effects of toxic exposure, the family may not discover the true cause until months or years after the death. Georgia’s discovery rule may extend the statute of limitations in these cases, but the specific application depends on the circumstances. Because these rules are complex and the consequences of missing a deadline are severe, it’s important to speak with a wrongful death attorney as soon as possible.
Types of Damages in Atlanta Wrongful Death Cases
Georgia law allows surviving family members to recover compensation for both economic and non-economic losses caused by a loved one’s wrongful death. The full value of a wrongful death claim depends on the specific circumstances of the case, including the deceased’s age, earning capacity, health, life expectancy, and the nature of their relationships with surviving family members. Georgia courts use the “full value of the life” standard, which encompasses both tangible financial losses and intangible personal losses.
Medical expenses: Any medical treatment, hospital bills, emergency services, and life-saving measures the victim received before death. These expenses are recoverable as part of an estate claim.
Funeral and burial costs: Reasonable expenses for funeral services, burial or cremation, cemetery plots, headstones, and related costs. These are also part of the estate claim.
Lost income and benefits: The income, wages, salary, bonuses, benefits, retirement contributions, and services the victim would have provided to the family over their expected lifetime. This calculation accounts for expected raises, promotions, and career trajectory.
Loss of companionship: The loss of love, affection, care, protection, guidance, and companionship the family has suffered. This is particularly significant when the deceased was a parent to minor children or a caregiver.
Loss of consortium: The surviving spouse’s loss of marital benefits, including companionship, affection, sexual relations, and emotional support.
Pain and suffering: In survival action claims, compensation for the physical pain and mental anguish the victim experienced before death. The amount depends on how long the victim survived and the nature of their suffering.
Emotional anguish: The grief, sorrow, mental anguish, and emotional distress the death has caused surviving family members. Georgia law recognizes that losing a loved one causes profound psychological harm.
Understanding Punitive Damages in Atlanta Wrongful Death Cases
In addition to compensatory damages, Georgia law allows for punitive damages in certain wrongful death cases. Punitive damages, also called exemplary damages, are designed to punish the defendant for particularly egregious conduct and deter similar behavior in the future. These damages are not awarded in every case but may be available when the defendant’s actions were willful, wanton, or demonstrated a conscious disregard for the safety of others.
Punitive damages might be appropriate in wrongful death cases involving drunk driving accidents, where the at-fault driver made a conscious decision to drive while impaired. They may also apply in cases where a company knowingly sold a dangerous or defective product, where a nursing home repeatedly ignored resident safety, or where a property owner ignored obvious security risks that led to a violent crime. Georgia law does place some limits on punitive damages, capping most awards at $250,000 unless specific exceptions apply, such as cases involving intentional conduct or product liability.
Proving that punitive damages are justified requires showing that the defendant acted with intent, gross negligence, or conscious indifference to consequences. The standard of proof for punitive damages is higher than for compensatory damages, requiring clear and convincing evidence rather than mere preponderance. Our Atlanta wrongful death attorneys carefully evaluate every case to determine whether punitive damages should be pursued and build the evidentiary record necessary to support such claims.
Common Causes of Wrongful Death in Atlanta
Wrongful death claims can arise from virtually any situation where negligence or wrongdoing causes a fatal injury. Understanding the common causes of wrongful death helps families recognize when they may have a legal claim and ensures that investigations focus on the right issues from the beginning.
Car Accident Wrongful Death
Fatal car accidents in Atlanta frequently result from drunk driving, distracted driving, speeding, running red lights, and aggressive driving. The busy roads and highways throughout metro Atlanta, including I-85, I-75, GA 400, and I-285, see thousands of crashes each year, many of which are fatal. When a driver’s negligence causes a fatal crash, surviving family members may pursue a wrongful death claim against the at-fault driver, and in some cases, against their employer under respondeat superior or against other responsible parties like vehicle manufacturers.
Truck Accident Wrongful Death
Crashes involving commercial trucks, 18-wheelers, and tractor-trailers are often catastrophic because of the size and weight disparity between commercial vehicles and passenger cars. Trucking accidents may be caused by driver fatigue, hours-of-service violations, inadequate driver training, improper cargo loading, mechanical failures, or trucking company negligence in hiring and supervision. Multiple parties may be liable in a trucking wrongful death case, including the driver, trucking company, cargo loader, freight broker, and vehicle or parts manufacturers.
Pedestrian and Bicycle Accident Wrongful Death
Pedestrians and cyclists are especially vulnerable to fatal injuries when struck by motor vehicles because they have no protection from the impact. Atlanta’s busy streets, particularly in areas like Midtown, Downtown, and Buckhead, see frequent pedestrian and bicycle accidents. Wrongful death claims arising from these accidents often involve drivers who failed to yield, were distracted by their phones, or were driving under the influence.
Medical Malpractice Wrongful Death
When doctors, nurses, hospitals, or other healthcare providers fail to meet the accepted standard of care, and that failure results in a patient’s death, the family may have a medical malpractice wrongful death claim. These cases commonly involve misdiagnosis, delayed diagnosis, surgical errors, anesthesia mistakes, medication errors, hospital-acquired infections, and failure to treat serious conditions. Medical malpractice cases require expert testimony to establish the standard of care and how it was breached.
Workplace Accident Wrongful Death
While workers’ compensation typically covers workplace injuries and provides death benefits to survivors, families may be able to pursue a wrongful death lawsuit against third parties whose negligence contributed to a worker’s death. This might include equipment manufacturers, subcontractors, property owners who created dangerous conditions, or other non-employer parties. Construction site accidents, industrial accidents, and exposures to toxic substances are common scenarios that give rise to third-party wrongful death claims.
Intentional Killing and Crime Victim Wrongful Death
If your loved one was murdered or killed during a violent crime, you may be able to pursue a civil wrongful death lawsuit regardless of whether the perpetrator was criminally convicted. In cases involving shootings or assaults on commercial property such as apartment complexes, hotels, nightclubs, or shopping centers, the property owner may also be liable if they failed to provide adequate security. These negligent security claims can be brought against property owners, security companies, and property management companies.
Defective Product Wrongful Death
When a defective product causes a fatal injury, the manufacturer, designer, and sellers of the product may be held liable under Georgia’s product liability laws. Common defective products that cause wrongful death include vehicles with design or manufacturing defects, dangerous pharmaceuticals, defective medical devices, faulty machinery and equipment, and hazardous consumer products. Product liability wrongful death cases often involve complex technical evidence and require expert testimony about design, manufacturing, and safety standards.
How Wrongful Death Is Proven in Georgia
Proving a wrongful death claim requires establishing four essential elements: duty, breach, causation, and damages. The defendant must have owed the deceased a duty of care, must have breached that duty through negligent or wrongful conduct, that breach must have directly caused the death, and the death must have caused measurable damages to the surviving family members.
Evidence in wrongful death cases varies depending on how the death occurred. In car accident cases, evidence may include police crash reports, witness statements, vehicle damage analysis, electronic data from vehicle computers, traffic camera footage, and accident reconstruction expert testimony. In medical malpractice cases, evidence focuses on medical records, autopsy results, and expert opinions about whether the healthcare provider met the applicable standard of care. In premises liability and negligent security cases, evidence may include security logs, incident reports, prior crime data, and expert testimony about industry security standards.
Insurance companies defending wrongful death claims often try to shift blame to the deceased or minimize the value of the claim. They may argue that the deceased was partially at fault, that their life expectancy was limited, or that the family’s losses are not as significant as claimed. Building a strong wrongful death case requires thorough investigation from the very beginning and preservation of evidence that might otherwise be lost or destroyed.

Frequently Asked Questions About Wrongful Death in Atlanta
How long do I have to file a wrongful death lawsuit in Georgia?
Georgia generally gives you two years from the date of death to file a wrongful death lawsuit. However, claims against government entities may have much shorter deadlines, sometimes as little as six months for ante litem notice. If criminal charges are involved, the statute of limitations may be tolled for up to six years. Speak with an attorney promptly to protect your rights and ensure you don’t miss any critical deadlines.
Who can file a wrongful death claim in Georgia?
The surviving spouse has the primary right to file and must share any recovery equally with surviving children. If there’s no surviving spouse, the children may file. If no spouse or children exist, the parents may file. If none of these relatives survive, the estate representative can file on behalf of the next of kin. Georgia law is specific about who has standing, and filing by the wrong party can result in dismissal.
What is the difference between a wrongful death claim and a survival action?
A wrongful death claim compensates surviving family members for their own losses, including lost income, loss of companionship, and emotional anguish caused by the death. A survival action, which is brought by the estate, covers damages the deceased person suffered before death, such as pain and suffering, medical expenses, and funeral costs. Both claims may be pursued simultaneously in the same lawsuit.
Can I file a wrongful death lawsuit if the person responsible was charged with a crime?
Yes. A civil wrongful death lawsuit is completely separate from criminal proceedings. You can pursue a wrongful death claim regardless of whether criminal charges are filed, and you can recover compensation even if the defendant is acquitted criminally. The burden of proof is lower in civil cases, requiring only a preponderance of the evidence rather than proof beyond a reasonable doubt.
How much does it cost to hire a wrongful death lawyer in Atlanta?
Butler Kahn handles wrongful death cases on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay no attorney fees unless we recover compensation for you. We advance all costs of investigating and litigating your case, including expert witness fees, court costs, and investigation expenses. We only get paid if you do. There is no cost or obligation for an initial consultation.
What damages can I recover in a wrongful death lawsuit?
Georgia law allows recovery for medical expenses before death, funeral and burial costs, lost income and benefits the deceased would have provided, loss of companionship and support, loss of consortium for spouses, and the emotional anguish of surviving family members. In some cases involving egregious conduct, punitive damages may also be available to punish the wrongdoer and deter similar behavior.
How long does a wrongful death case take to resolve?
The timeline varies significantly depending on the complexity of the case, the number of parties involved, the availability of evidence, and the willingness of insurance companies to negotiate fairly. Some cases settle within several months, while others may take two to three years or longer if trial is required. We keep our clients informed throughout the process and work to resolve cases as efficiently as possible while maximizing recovery.
Should I talk to the insurance company before hiring a lawyer?
No. Insurance adjusters often contact grieving families quickly, hoping to settle claims for far less than they’re worth before the family understands the full extent of their rights. You should speak with an experienced wrongful death attorney before giving any recorded statements, signing any documents, or accepting any settlement offers. What you say to an insurance adjuster can be used against you later.
What if my loved one was partially at fault for the accident?
Georgia follows a modified comparative negligence rule. You can still recover damages as long as your loved one was less than 50% at fault for the incident. However, the recovery will be reduced by their percentage of fault. For example, if your loved one was 20% at fault and your damages total $1,000,000, your recovery would be reduced to $800,000. Insurance companies often try to shift blame to the deceased, making experienced legal representation crucial.
Can I sue for wrongful death if my family member died in a nursing home?
Yes. Nursing home abuse and neglect that results in death can be the basis for a wrongful death claim. This includes deaths caused by falls due to inadequate supervision, medication errors, infections from poor hygiene, bedsores that become infected, malnutrition, dehydration, wandering and elopement, and other failures of care. These cases often involve violations of state and federal nursing home regulations.
What evidence is important in a wrongful death case?
Critical evidence may include police or incident reports, medical records, autopsy reports, witness statements, photographs and video surveillance, electronic data from vehicles, expert testimony from accident reconstructionists or medical experts, and documentation of the deceased’s income, career trajectory, and family relationships. Preserving evidence quickly is essential because it can be lost, destroyed, or overwritten over time.
Can multiple family members file wrongful death claims?
Only one wrongful death lawsuit can be filed, but multiple family members may be entitled to share in the recovery. The surviving spouse must share any recovery equally with surviving children, with children collectively receiving at least one-third of the total. If there’s a dispute among family members about how to proceed or how to divide the recovery, the court may need to appoint someone to bring the claim or supervise distribution.
What happens if the person who caused the death has no insurance?
Even if the directly responsible party has no insurance or insufficient insurance, other liable parties may have coverage. In car accident cases, your loved one’s own uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage may apply. In premises liability cases, the property owner’s insurance may be available. In trucking cases, multiple parties may carry insurance. An experienced attorney will investigate all potential sources of recovery.
Do I need to prove the defendant intended to kill my family member?
No. Most wrongful death cases are based on negligence, not intentional conduct. You must prove that the defendant owed your loved one a duty of care, breached that duty through negligent conduct, and that the breach caused the death. Intent is only relevant if you’re seeking punitive damages based on willful misconduct, gross negligence, or conscious disregard for safety.
How is the value of a wrongful death case determined?
Georgia uses the “full value of the life” standard to calculate wrongful death damages. This includes the deceased’s earning capacity over their expected remaining lifetime, the value of services they would have provided to the family, and the intangible value of their companionship, guidance, and love. Economists and other experts may testify about these values, particularly regarding future lost income and benefits.
Can I file a wrongful death claim if my loved one died in a car accident caused by a drunk driver?
Yes, and you may also be entitled to pursue punitive damages in addition to compensatory damages. Georgia law allows punitive damages in cases involving drunk driving because the decision to drive while intoxicated demonstrates conscious disregard for the safety of others. Our attorneys have experience pursuing both compensatory and punitive damages in drunk driving wrongful death cases.
