California Wrongful Death Attorney

Losing a family member because of someone else's carelessness is a pain no family should endure. While we know that a legal claim cannot undo your loss, a wrongful death case can provide financial security, accountability, and a measure of justice during an unimaginably difficult time.

We handle these sensitive cases with compassion and resolve. We pursue full compensation for medical and funeral expenses, lost financial support, and the loss of love, companionship, and guidance, while you and your family focus on grieving and healing.

Cases We Handle

• Fatal car, truck, and motorcycle accidents
• Pedestrian and bicycle fatalities
• Dangerous and defective products
• Unsafe premises and fatal falls
• Negligent security and preventable violence
• Workplace and construction-site deaths

Compensation You May Recover

When a wrongful death is caused by negligence, surviving family members may be entitled to recover compensation for:

• Medical expenses incurred before your loved one's death
• Funeral and burial costs
• Lost financial support and future earnings
• Loss of companionship, guidance, and household services
• Pain and suffering your loved one endured before passing
• Punitive damages in cases of especially reckless conduct

California's Deadline to File

In California, wrongful death claims generally must be filed within two years of the date of death. Claims involving a government entity may have a deadline as short as six months. Evidence can disappear quickly, so the sooner you speak with an attorney, the stronger your family's case will be.
