Testimonials

I don’t have any medical bills, I’m receiving revenue for my pain and suffering, and I’m very appreciative. I am truly satisfied with the results of my case.
"The best part about having James Murphy as my workers' compensationlawyer is that I have someone to speak for me..."
The initial phone call made me feel as though they really cared. They made us feel like a number, and Murphy & Associates didn't. My wife and I have never gone through something like this before and accidents can be devastating to a family because of loss of income, pain and suffering.
Murphy & Associates made my experience fast and easy, and got the job done.
Murphy & Associates Car Accident Law firm is professional, efficient, and a pleasant experience doing business with.
I was involved in a rear-end collision while stopped at a red light. Mr. Murphy and his staff guided me through this long process from obtaining medical treatment to settling with the other party's insurance company.

What are the common defenses in a Georgia wrongful death case after an auto accident?

A: The most common defensive arguments you and your Lithia springs lawyer will face in a Georgia wrongful death claim after you’ve lost a loved one in a fatal car accident will probably include one or several of the following:

that the defendant did not cause the collision, or that some other party or parties contributed to the accident equally;
that your loved one was not taking proper safety precautions at the time of the accident, such as wearing a seatbelt or sitting in his or her seat properly;
that your vehicle lacked proper safety maintenance, which contributed to the consequences of the accident; and
that your loved one failed to receive proper medical treatment that would have otherwise been life-saving.

This is not an exclusive list of potential defenses in a wrongful death suit, but they are some of the most common. Your Lithia Springs lawyer will be prepared for these types of arguments, and your best chances to combat them are to meticulously gather evidence and documentation as events unfold like:

medical records;
accident reports;
photographs; and
eyewitness statements.

While your attorney can't undo the accident that took your loved one, he or she can fight to get you the compensation you need and deserve in order to provide for the cost of:

medical expenses,
funeral costs;
lost wages; and
pain and suffering.

Trust your Georgia wrongful death claim to a Lithia Springs lawyer who has handled cases like yours before and will treat you with compassion, respect, and attentiveness. Speak with a Georgia injury lawyer who understands the value of going that extra step.
