About Us

Helping you find peace, closure, and justice.

The Georgia Wrongful Death Firm is the first firm in Georgia singularly focused on helping families who have lost a loved one due to the negligence of another. We are committed to helping you understand exactly what happened and obtaining full and complete financial compensation for your loss. We understand that money cannot bring a loved one back, but it can help ease the financial burden that families often face after a wrongful death. This can include expenses such as medical bills, funeral costs, and lost income.

In addition to obtaining justice for individual families, our firm culture is built on the principle of helping prevent the same thing from happening to others. We work closely with law enforcement, legislators, and federal agencies to understand the root cause of wrongful death incidents and uncover any dangerous trends or patterns of behavior that need to be changed. This approach ensures that our clients not only receive the compensation they deserve, but that they also have a voice in creating a safer and better world for others.

This firm started as a passion project of Matt Wetherington. Matt also founded and manages the Wetherington firm, which continues to handle a wider range of cases. The Georgia Wrongful Death Firm is a companion firm of the Wetherington Firm. We accept a very small number of wrongful death cases so that we can provide the highest level of service possible. We exclusively work with clients who share our goals and have an earnest desire to not let their loved one simply be another statistic.

Our results speak for themselves, and large corporations and their insurance companies know that when we file a lawsuit, we have properly investigated the claims and are prepared to take the case to trial.
