Bad Faith Torts and Uncommon Claims
We believe strongly that, as stated in the laws of the State of Georgia, “for every right there shall be a remedy.” O.C.G.A. § 9-2-3. In cases where a grievous and severe wrong has been done, we are willing to pursue claims (or to handle appeals) that may involve novel legal issues or theories of recovery. This is especially true in cases involving intentional conduct or bad faith. These cases not only give rise to additional categories of damages, but also naturally invite the sympathy of the jury (once the plaintiff has cleared the inevitable legal hurdles).
When a unique set of facts demands a remedy, we do not shy away from cases that present issues that the courts have not dealt with previously. Where the damages are extensive, we welcome the opportunity either to litigate such claims from beginning to end or to help other lawyers handle the appeals that inevitably result from these types of cases.
