About Hagood Injury Law, LLC

In Georgia, the statute of limitations for wrongful death claims is generally 2 years from the date of the deceased person’s death. This means that eligible family members or estate representatives must file their lawsuit within this two-year window to preserve their right to seek compensation. However, this period may be extended under certain circumstances, such as if there is an ongoing criminal case related to the death. In cases involving fraudulent concealment of the cause of death or when the at-fault party deliberately hides their involvement, the statute of limitations may be tolled until the truth is discovered. Given the complexity of these time limits and the potential exceptions, it’s crucial to consult with an experienced wrongful death attorney as soon as possible to ensure your claim is filed within the applicable deadline.
