Understanding Georgia Medical Malpractice Laws
Georgia's medical malpractice laws are complex and have specific requirements. Our attorneys help you navigate these legal challenges to protect your rights.
Expert Affidavit Requirement
Georgia law requires an expert affidavit to be filed with your medical malpractice complaint. This affidavit must be from a qualified medical expert who can testify that your healthcare provider violated the standard of care.
Statute of Limitations
In Georgia, you generally have two years from the date of injury to file a medical malpractice lawsuit. However, there's also a five-year statute of repose and exceptions for foreign objects and cases involving minors.
Damage Caps
While Georgia previously had caps on non-economic damages in medical malpractice cases, the Georgia Supreme Court ruled these caps unconstitutional. Our attorneys will fight for full and fair compensation for all your damages.
