We have worked with countless families who have lost loved ones in auto, boating, trucking, and workplace accidents as well as fires.

In California, a wrongful death claim arises when one person dies as a result of the negligence or wrongful act of another person. Surviving family members may file a wrongful death claim in civil court, seeking money damages from the negligent party.
Our team can help you recover compensation for funeral costs, lost wages and future financial support, medical expenses related to the accident, pain and suffering, and loss of companionship. In some situations, punitive damages may also be awarded.
Spouse or domestic partner
Children
Siblings or parents
Step-children, putative spouses and parents who were financially dependent on the decedent
During your time of grieving, a lawsuit may be the last thing on your mind. However, it is important that you consult a wrongful death lawyer as soon as possible. California law requires wrongful death claims to be filed within two years after the death of your loved one. If a wrongful death lawsuit is not filed, your family will lose the ability to seek compensation for its loss.
