Since 2022, the Georgia General Assembly has passed several pieces of legislation providing significant impacts for civil litigation and litigants in the State’s courts. Together, the new laws indicate a legislative trend to reform certain practices, or unintentional consequences of judicial application of prior legislation, while also strengthening Georgia’s pro-businesses policies. Examples of the legislation enacted over the past three years include: the Apportionment Statute (O.C.G.A. § 51-12-33) and the codification of the Apex Doctrine (O.C.G.A. § 9-11-26.1) in  response to appellate court decisions, as well as Georgia’s Bad Faith Failure to Settle Statute (O.C.G.A. § 9-11-67.1) and a brand new Tort Reform Package (Senate Bills 68 and 69), which establish additional guardrails around potential claims and liabilities in Georgia. Though the recent 2025 Tort Reform Package represents the legislature’s most comprehensive effort to introduce statutory reform for civil litigation, this package stands with the preceding legislation as a notable backdrop.
