Georgia Fatal Car Accident Death Attorney

Each year, thousands of Americans are killed in accidents—many through no fault of their own. If you have lost a loved one because of a car accident, you may have a wrongful death claim against the responsible driver and his or her insurance company. You should speak to a Georgia fatal car accident death attorney to learn more about your rights and the damages to which you may be entitled.

Vehicle drivers and passengers are the most common victims of fatal car accidents. Motorcyclists and pedestrians are also at risk, especially if a car driver is not vigilant when turning or merging.

Many fatal car accidents can be attributed to driving under the influence as well as distracted and reckless driving. Inexperienced, inattentive, tired, and aggressive drivers can also cause serious accidents.

Defective products may also contribute or lead to a fatal car accident. Defective seat belts, airbags, tires, ignition systems, or door latches can lead to serious injuries or even death. If your loved one’s death is caused by defective auto parts, the product manufacturer could be held responsible.

The fatal car accident death attorneys at Head, Thomas, Webb and Willis will try to negotiate with the liable driver’s insurance company in order to reach a fair settlement for your loss. If a settlement cannot be reached, we are prepared to bring your case to trial in order to recover damages.

During a wrongful death case, an accident reconstruction specialist may be brought in to collect and preserve evidence. He or she will use this evidence to recreate the events that led to the wrongful death and use this knowledge to prove that the defendant was responsible and should be held liable. An accident reconstruction specialist will also inspect the vehicles involved in the accident to determine if defective products led to your loved one’s wrongful death.

At Head, Thomas, Webb and Willis, we use our unlimited resources in order to help clients who have lost a loved one recover damages for their loss. No payment is required up front—we only get paid if we win your case.
