Yes, wrongful death cases can be settled out of court in Georgia. In fact, the vast majority of wrongful death cases are settled long before they are ever litigated in a courtroom. There are a number of benefits to having a case settled before it goes to trial. Among other things, settlements typically are much quicker than a possibly lengthy trial process. There are also fewer costs associated with mediation and settlements. An out-of-court settlement also provides a level of certainty to the plaintiff. You can never really know how a jury is ultimately going to decide when a case goes to trial. Plaintiffs could receive an adverse decision.
