By law and ethical rules, Attorneys cannot contact injury victims for 30 days after an accident. However, insurance companies and their investigators Are allowed to Immediately contact injury victims, their families, and witnesses, and they DO—all in efforts to protect their money and not pay your claim.

Wrongful Death

Losing a loved one is very difficult, especially when the death is caused by someone else's careless or wrongful acts. Georgia Law recognizes that life is precious and valuable. Spouses, children, and families often rely on financial support that was provided by the deceased. Children and retirees do not work to provide support, but their lives are valuable, too. Georgia law states that the surviving spouse, parents, or family members are entitled to the full value of life of the deceased, including the wages they would have earned during a lifetime of productive work, and compensation for lost enjoyment of life and activities with friends and loved ones. Sometimes juries also award punitive damages, to deter negligent people from causing wrongful deaths again.

Make no mistake, liable parties and their insurance companies fight hard on these claims. It is imperative that people hire their own counsel promptly in order to protect their rights, organize their evidence, and properly pursue their claim. Talk to Stemberger & Cummins before you talk to the insurance company or other interested parties. We can make sure that justice is done for you and your loved ones.
