Georgia law says the measure of damages for a wrongful death is “the full value of the life of the decedent without deducting for any of the necessary or personal expenses of the decedent had he lived.” A jury also can award damages for such intangible factors as the enjoyment and experience of living. Although the victim’s lifetime earning capacity can be quantified with the assistance of financial experts, the intangible factors can be difficult to measure. Juries usually are instructed to use their “enlightened conscience” to determine an appropriate award.

A trip as innocent as one to the grocery store can have dire consequences. One poll found that 77% of automobile accidents occurred within 15 miles of the respondents’ homes. Accidents do happen, and we all hope that any injuries sustained are minor; however, the reality of the situation is that auto accidents cause major injuries. Spinal cord injury, brain damage and chronic, debilitating disabilities can result from an accident – critical injuries that can seriously affect your ability to work as well as enjoy life. Jason Schultz knows that insurance companies balk at paying claims that are due to you as a premium holder who has been critically injured by the negligence of another driver, and he has the knowledge to negotiate compensation that will enable you to recover lost wages and regain control of your life.

In recent years, dog bites and other pet attacks have become a serious legal issue. Every year, more than 4.7 million people are bitten by dogs, and 800,000 of the injuries incurred merit medical treatment. Injuries caused by animal bites often require painful and expensive courses of medication to prevent disease as well as medical procedures to close wounds and mend injuries. Owners are legally responsible for the actions of their pets, and any medical costs and other losses caused by an attack by their pets rests with the owners. Van Dorn & Curtiss takes these cases to trial and we will win. Our attorneys recovered a 2.1 million dollar jury verdict in a pit bull attack case. We don’t just settle for less than you deserve. Our aggression in the courtroom gets generous awards for our clients, and other law firms are well aware of it.
