Allow yourself time to grieve. Lean on support from family, friends, and counseling resources. There is no right timeline for processing your loss.
Keep copies of the death certificate, medical records, accident reports, employment records, and communications related to the incident that caused your loss.

California wrongful death law has specific rules about who can file, deadlines, and recoverable damages. Our OC attorneys handle these cases with care and determination.
A wrongful death occurs when someone dies due to another party’s negligence, recklessness, or intentional conduct. In Orange County, wrongful death cases frequently arise from car and truck crashes on the I-5, 405, and 91, pedestrian strikes on busy boulevards, medical malpractice at area hospitals, workplace fatalities in construction and industrial settings, defective products, and criminal violence.
California wrongful death law allows the deceased’s surviving spouse, domestic partner, children, and certain other dependents to file claims. These cases seek compensation for funeral expenses, lost financial support, loss of companionship, and the emotional devastation of losing a family member. Our attorneys work with financial experts and medical professionals to document the full impact.
