One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesLosing a family member in a preventable collision changes everything, and the legal side of that loss can feel like one more burden on top of grief. In Hollister, where local roads such as 4th Street, San Benito Street, San Felipe Road and Rt 25 see steady weekend traffic, families are sometimes left facing a wrongful death claim with no idea where to start. California law limits who may bring this type of claim, usually a spouse, domestic partner, or children first, with other dependents eligible in certain situations, and there is a strict two-year window from the date of death to act, shorter still if a government entity may be involved. We handle wrongful death claims on a contingency basis, meaning there's no fee unless a recovery is obtained. Our team can evaluate the circumstances, explain your options, and guide you through the process.
California restricts who can file a wrongful death claim, typically a spouse, domestic partner, or children first, then other dependents or heirs. We can confirm who in your family qualifies and guide the process from there.
California generally gives families two years from the date of death to file, and that window shrinks considerably if a government entity is involved. Getting started early gives us more time to build your case properly.
