Re: Special Damages

Required? Well, no but�..If special damages are suffered as a proximate cause of the tortuous conduct of another, special damages are usually recoverable. The code sections on special damages are: O.C.G.A. �� 51-12-1 and 51-12-2.

This answer, though responsive to the question is general in nature. It is not designed to be and should not be relied on as your sole source of information when analyzing and resolving a specific legal issue. Each fact situation is different; the laws are constantly changing. If you have specific questions regarding a particular fact situation, I urge you to consult with competent legal counsel.
