Cate is an exceptional lawyer who handled my case with professionalism, expertise, and dedication. She made me feel confident every step of the way and was always ready to provide clear explanations and sound advice.

So I was struck by a vehicle on August 2, 2023 and it changed my life. I lost a lot and barely made it through.

The clock begins ticking on the statutes of limitations in wrongful death cases on the date of the incident that caused the victim’s death, but the amount of time a person has to file the claim varies significantly depending on the relevant state laws.

We advise clients to take action as soon as possible as some states have shorter statutes of limitations than others. In auto accident cases, insurance policies owned by the victim or the victim’s family often also have timely notification requirements. This means if a claim is not filed in the time given in the insurance policy, the family of the deceased may lose valuable compensation.

Important evidence necessary for a case can disappear or become destroyed, and witnesses can go missing or forget what happened as more time passes as well, increasing the importance of acting quickly.

FAQs Accidental Wrongful Death

What Are Georgia Deadlines for Filing Car Accident Insurance Claims & Lawsuits?
For personal injury claims resulting from a car accident, the statute of limitations in Georgia is usually two years from the date of the accident. This means you would have two years to file a lawsuit against the responsible party/parties. Failure to file within this time frame could result in the loss of your right to seek compensation for your injuries. The statutes of limitations can vary depending on the jurisdiction of the accident.
