Focusing on the Goals and Priorities of Your Claim
A wrongful death claim is a lawsuit that can be brought in California after a fatal accident by the spouse, children, brothers, sisters and other legal heirs of the person who was killed.
Bringing a wrongful death claim may help you and your family:
- Bring the responsible party to justice
- Prevent similar tragedies from happening to others
- Obtain money damages as the best available way of compensating you
The experienced and respected trial lawyers at our firm have a track record of successfully bringing wrongful death claims for fatalities suffered in auto accidents, incidents caused by the negligence of property owners, and other personal injury circumstances.
Exploring Opportunities for Your Recovery of Wrongful Death Damages
If your loved one suffered pain and suffering before his or her death, it may also be possible to bring a special kind of claim called a survival action. Depending on the circumstances of the accident, this may be a way to pursue punitive damages to punish the responsible party.
