Compensatory Damages You Can Recover
In addition to compensatory damages, Georgia also awards punitive damages to penalize defendants for particularly egregious offenses. Moreover, though such damages are typically capped at $250,000, accidents that involve the influence of drugs or alcohol are an exception. Therefore, if you are awarded punitive damages, they could potentially exceed $250,000. To pursue punitive damages, your attorney may present the at-fault driver’s past history of drunk driving as evidence, including other accidents or DUI convictions.
