We go to our place of worship for peace, comfort, and fellowship. When an act of violence, like a mass shooting, happens on the grounds of your church, synagogue, or mosque, you rightfully want justice for the appalling act. In many cases, violence like this couldn’t happen but for negligent security or oversight. Although seeing the perpetrator face justice gives a sense of closure to victims, those injured in the act of violence are still left with sky-high medical bills and other material losses. Our Atlanta, GA church shooting lawyer can help victims like you file a civil suit for damages, getting you the compensation you deserve. Call Deitch + Rogers today for a consultation to learn more.
Church Shooting Lawyer Atlanta, GA
The aftermath of a church shooting leaves everyone reeling. You may have deep physical wounds that leave you permanently disabled. You almost certainly have deep psychological trauma, likely PTSD, anxiety, and depression that affect your entire life. Even if you weren’t one of the victims shot by the violent gun-wielder, the trauma and fear you’re now living with means your life is forever changed.
Our Atlanta church shooting lawyer focuses on the question of liability after a mass shooting at a religious institution. Obviously, the shooter bears responsibility, but what about the facility itself? Was there more care that could have been taken to keep the people inside safe? What about how the perpetrator got the gun in the first place? Many mass shootings like this have an element of negligent entrustment, in which someone could be liable for harm caused by negligently permitting a dangerous person access to a firearm.
The civil suits our firm files on behalf of church shooting survivors consider these legal issues when determining the survivors’ eligibility for a settlement. We pursue legal action against all liable parties in the shooting, seeking fair compensation for your medical bills and trauma therapy, plus a fair amount for your pain and suffering. We hold all parties who could have prevented this liable for their negligence and inaction, and help you get the means to rebuild your life after this tragic incident.
