Medical Malpractice law in Georgia, in brief
A Georgia medical malpractice suit must be filed within two years of the injury and, with few exceptions, within five years of the negligent act. The complaint must be filed with an expert affidavit from a qualified medical professional stating at least one negligent act (O.C.G.A. § 9-11-9.2), which is why these cases take preparation before filing.
Nursing home neglect and abuse claims follow the same rules. Georgia's cap on non economic damages was struck down by the state Supreme Court in 2010, so there is no fixed ceiling on pain and suffering awards.
