One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesHidden Hills is one of the smallest communities in Los Angeles County, home to roughly 1,924 people behind its gates. Public records for 2025 show no injury collisions and no traffic deaths within city limits, and its busiest stretches, Jed Smith Road, El Dorado Meadow Road and Lewis And Clark Road, see collision counts that would barely register in a larger city. That quiet is real, but it does not shield residents from loss elsewhere. Families here lose loved ones on commutes outside the gates, in hospitals, at job sites, and in facilities meant to care for aging parents. Under California law, a wrongful death claim is a civil action brought by the surviving spouse or domestic partner and children first, then certain dependents and heirs. It runs on its own track, entirely apart from any criminal prosecution. The clock is short: generally two years from the date of death, and shorter still when a government entity is involved. We handle wrongful death cases on contingency, so there is no fee unless there is a recovery.
California limits standing to the surviving spouse or domestic partner and children first, then certain dependents and heirs. We can sort out quickly who in your family has the right to bring the claim.
Most wrongful death claims must be filed within two years of the date of death, and claims involving a public agency have an even tighter window. Getting started early protects your options.
