The damage cap in the state is $350,000 for noneconomic damages, increased to $700,000 if more than one defendant is liable. However, the Georgia Supreme Court deemed the cap unconstitutional in Atlanta Oculoplastic Surgery, PC v. Nestlehutt, 286 Ga. 731, 733(2) (691 S.E.2d 218) (2010). The application of this cap may not apply when it comes to medical malpractice lawsuits filed in Georgia after 2010. The 2020 Georgia Code does not mention any caps for damages.
