Frequently asked questions

How many attorneys handling scald burns cases are listed in Augusta, Georgia?

No firms are listed in Augusta, Georgia yet. Attorneys in nearby cities and elsewhere in Georgia handle scald burns cases across the state — burn and fire cases are routinely litigated statewide rather than city by city.

How long do I have to file a scald burns lawsuit in Georgia?

The Georgia statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is 2 years (O.C.G.A. § 9-3-33). Claims against a government body usually run on a much shorter separate notice deadline. Missing either one generally ends the claim regardless of its merits, so the filing date matters more than almost any other early decision.
