Georgia follows a modified comparative negligence law with a 50% bar to recovery.
In plain English, you lose your right to compensation if the insurance company can prove your loved one was at least 50% responsible for their own death. Even if they share less than 50% of the blame, your compensation will be reduced by that percentage of fault.
If you hire us, our lawyers will work hard to respond to these allegations effectively so that you can maintain the full value of your claim.
