One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesGlendale sits where the Ventura Freeway meets the Golden State Freeway, and heavy daily traffic is part of life here. In 2025, the city's public records logged 727 injury collisions, 978 people hurt, and 3 traffic deaths. Three is a small number on a spreadsheet, but for the households behind each one, it is everything. A wrongful death claim in California is not about the criminal case. It is a separate civil action that lets a spouse, domestic partner, or child, and in some cases other dependents or heirs, seek compensation for funeral and burial costs, the financial support the person would have provided, and the loss of their love, companionship, and guidance. Whether the loss happened on SR-134, along San Fernando Road, or near the storefronts on Brand Boulevard, the two-year clock starts on the date of death, and it can be shorter when a government entity is involved. We handle wrongful death claims on a contingency basis, so there is no fee unless you recover.
California limits who has standing to bring a wrongful death action, starting with a spouse or domestic partner and children, then certain dependents and heirs. We can confirm where your family fits before anything is filed.
Most claims must be filed within two years of the date of death, and the window is shorter when a city, county, Caltrans, or another public agency may share fault. We address those timelines promptly to keep your options open.
