California Wrongful Death Explained

Wrongful death cases in San Diego involve special procedures. Unlike ordinary personal injury claims, wrongful death focuses on losses suffered by the surviving family.

Your family may be entitled to compensation even if your loved one never filed a claim..

⭐ California Wrongful Death Attorney Helping Families Recover Justice

Fatal claims in California often involve:

  • fatal motor vehicle crashes

  • trucking fatalities

  • motorcycle collisions

  • workplace deaths

  • pedestrian fatalities

  • dangerous property conditions

  • construction site accidents

  • drunk driving

  • violent acts

  • medical negligence

My law office represents families statewide in catastrophic wrongful death cases.

❤️ What is a Wrongful Death in California?

A wrongful death claim arises when someone’s death is caused by negligence, wrongful conduct, or corporate misconduct. Eligible family members may recover compensation for:

  • loss of financial support

  • loss of companionship

  • funeral and burial expenses

  • loss of household services

  • emotional suffering

?‍⚖️ Who Qualifies to File?

Under California law, these family members may file:

  • spouses or domestic partners

  • children

  • grandchildren (if children are deceased)

  • certain legal dependents

Multiple family members may participate depending on the circumstances.

⚖ Wrongful Death vs. Survival Action

California recognizes two separate claims that may apply:

Wrongful Death
Compensation for the family, including:

  • emotional losses

  • financial support

  • companionship

Survival Action
Compensation for damages suffered by the victim before death:

  • medical bills

  • lost wages

  • pain and suffering

  • punitive damages

Many lawyers fail to pursue both. I pursue everything the law allows.

? Possible Financial Compensation

California wrongful death compensation may include:
medical expenses
funeral expenses
lost income
loss of future financial support
loss of companionship
emotional damages

? Statute of Limitations

Most claims must be filed within two years — but exceptions exist. Medical negligence cases may have shorter deadlines.
