Deadline: Two years from the date of the crash for personal injury and wrongful death claims (O.C.G.A. 9-3-33). Property damage claims get four years. Claims against a city, county, or the state carry ante litem notice deadlines as short as six months.
Fault rule: Modified comparative negligence with a 50% bar (O.C.G.A. 51-12-33). You can recover as long as you are less than 50% at fault, but your award is reduced by your share of the blame.
