Focused Advocacy After Fatal Medical or Vehicle-Related Negligence
In the heart of Georgia, Macon is a city where history, culture, and community run deep. But when tragedy strikes—on I-75, inside a Bibb County hospital, or along a busy neighborhood street—families can find themselves grieving a loved one whose death could have been prevented. In those moments, what matters most is finding the truth, holding the responsible parties accountable, and honoring the lost life.
At Wrongful Death Krause Law Firm, we represent families across Macon and Bibb County who have lost someone due to medical negligence or fatal vehicle-related crashes. Unlike general personal injury firms, we do not divide our attention across practice areas. Wrongful death is all we do, and we focus specifically on the cases that most commonly devastate Georgia families—those involving cars, trucks, motorcycles, pedestrians, hospitals, and medical mistakes.
If you’ve lost a loved one in Macon due to preventable negligence, let us help you seek justice with clarity, compassion, and the full weight of our legal experience.
Our firm concentrates on fatal events that stem from medical failures and vehicle-related negligence.
These are the most common—and most preventable—sources of wrongful death in Macon:
Fatal crashes in Macon frequently occur along I-16, I-75, and Eisenhower Parkway. When distracted, speeding, or impaired drivers cause deadly collisions, we pursue justice for the families left behind.
With daily commercial traffic traveling through Middle Georgia, trucking collisions can be catastrophic. We investigate driver logs, vehicle maintenance records, and company compliance to expose what went wrong and who is responsible.
Motorcyclists face significant danger on Macon’s roads when drivers fail to yield, don’t check blind spots, or follow too closely. These fatal incidents often require aggressive investigation and expert testimony.
Whether your loved one was walking near Mercer University, crossing busy downtown streets, or navigating a neighborhood intersection, fatal pedestrian incidents deserve full accountability. We represent families in cases where drivers failed to observe basic safety.
Macon has major hospitals and clinics, but even reputable facilities can make deadly mistakes. We handle claims involving surgical errors, medication overdoses, missed complications, and other breaches of the medical standard of care.
Delayed or incorrect diagnoses of critical conditions like cancer, heart attack, or infection can cost lives. When earlier detection would have made a difference, we investigate and pursue justice on your behalf.
Hospital-based fatalities often stem from systemic breakdowns—staff shortages, communication failures, or unmonitored deterioration. We help families uncover what happened and why it could have been prevented.
These cases are not simple. They require a law firm that is deeply experienced in wrongful death litigation and prepared to take on hospitals, insurance carriers, corporate defendants, or commercial drivers when necessary.
Wrongful death cases aren’t about quick settlements—they’re about restoring a measure of justice and uncovering the truth. At Wrongful Death Krause Law Firm, we are led by attorney Roger Krause, whose entire legal practice is helping families navigate the aftermath of fatal negligence.
By choosing us, families in Macon benefit from:
We understand the impact a wrongful death has on your household and your future. Our role is to carry the legal burden while you begin the emotional process of healing and remembrance.
When a loved one dies due to someone else’s negligence—whether on the road or in a hospital—legal action may not be your first thought. But justice matters. Your family deserves answers, accountability, and a chance to ensure this never happens again.
