Dealing with a Wrongful Death and Lawsuit
 A wrongful death occurs when a loved one is killed due to the negligence or misconduct of another person, company or entity. An lawsuit for a wrongful death is dealt with the decedent's immediate family members who are either surviving spouses, children and on occasion the parents. A suit for a wrongful death may only be brought by the personal representative of the decedent's estate and therefore it is recommended that you contact an experienced and dedicated wrongful death lawyer right away.
California has a civil "wrongful death statute," which establishes the procedures for pursuing wrongful death actions. Other legal actions such as for personal injury, mental pain and suffering, or expenses incurred due to wrongful death are also brought to the case by our experienced wrongful death lawyer during the case.
