One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesCrescent City is small enough that a sudden loss is felt well beyond one household. With roughly 6,800 residents, a death on US-101, along 5th Street or near L Street tends to touch neighbors, coworkers and the harbor community alike. In 2025, public records show 21 injury collisions and 32 people hurt here, with no traffic deaths recorded that year, yet wrongful death claims in Del Norte County arise from more than roadway crashes. Unsafe property, a workplace incident, a defective product or careless medical care can each leave a family carrying costs and an absence no one planned for. California allows a spouse or domestic partner and children, and in some cases other dependents or heirs, to bring a civil claim for funeral expenses, the income the person would have provided, and the love, companionship and guidance now missing. We handle these cases on contingency, meaning no fee unless there is a recovery. Our service costs you nothing.
California limits wrongful death standing to a spouse or domestic partner and children first, then certain dependents and heirs. Our team can sort out who in your family qualifies before any filing is made.
Most claims must be filed within two years of the date of death, and the window shrinks considerably when a city, county or state agency is involved. Getting started early keeps those dates from slipping past during a hard season.
