Our Practice Area: Types of Wrongful Death Cases We Handle

Losing a loved one is never easy, and when their death is caused by someone else’s negligence, the pain can feel unbearable. Each wrongful death case is unique, with its own set of challenges and circumstances. That’s why our legal team takes a personalized approach to every case we handle, ensuring your family’s needs and goals are always prioritized. Here are some of the types of wrongful death cases we specialize in:

Fatal Car Accidents

Reckless or distracted driving, drunk driving, and speeding are all too common on Atlanta’s roads and highways. When a loved one is taken due to another driver’s negligence, we step in to hold the at-fault party accountable. Our team handles everything from investigating the crash to negotiating with insurance companies, so you can focus on healing.

Fatal Truck and Commercial Vehicle Accidents

Accidents involving large trucks or commercial vehicles often lead to catastrophic injuries or death. These cases can be complex, involving federal regulations, multiple liable parties, and aggressive insurance companies. Our attorneys are experienced in navigating these challenges and fighting for families who have lost loved ones in truck accidents.

Medical Malpractice Cases

Healthcare providers have a duty to care for their patients, but when that duty is breached, the consequences can be tragic. Whether it’s a misdiagnosis, surgical error, or medication mistake, we work with medical experts to uncover the truth and pursue justice for families affected by medical negligence.

Workplace Fatalities

Unsafe working conditions, lack of proper safety equipment, and employer negligence can all lead to fatal workplace accidents. We understand the complexities of workplace wrongful death cases, including navigating workers’ compensation laws and pursuing additional claims against third parties when appropriate.

Nursing Home Neglect and Abuse

When families entrust nursing homes to care for their loved ones, they expect compassion and professionalism. Unfortunately, neglect and abuse in these facilities can lead to tragic outcomes. If your loved one’s death was caused by mistreatment or neglect in a nursing home, we’ll help you hold the responsible parties accountable.

Product Liability Claims

Defective products—from malfunctioning vehicles to unsafe household items—can cause fatal injuries. If your loved one died due to a dangerous or defective product, we’ll investigate the manufacturer, distributor, and others in the supply chain to ensure justice is served.

Premises Liability Deaths

Property owners have a legal responsibility to maintain safe environments for visitors. Fatal accidents due to unsafe conditions, such as falls, fires, or inadequate security, are heartbreaking and preventable. We’re here to fight for justice for families who have lost loved ones due to property owner negligence.

No matter the circumstances of your loss—whether it involved negligence on the road, in the workplace, or in a healthcare setting—our experienced attorneys have the expertise and resources to fight for justice. We know how overwhelming this process can feel, but you don’t have to face it alone. We’re here to guide you every step of the way, helping your family secure the compensation and closure you deserve. Let us take on the legal burden so you can focus on honoring your loved one’s memory.
