Claim it before someone else doesLos Alamitos is a small Orange County city of about 11,449 people. When a life is lost here, the absence is felt on the same few streets everyone drives daily: Katella Avenue, Los Alamitos Boulevard, Cerritos Avenue, and the I-605. Public records for 2025 list 88 injury collisions, 110 people hurt, and one traffic death. Behind that single number is a family. A wrongful death claim under California law is a civil action, separate from any criminal case that may follow a fatal crash, a workplace incident, or a preventable medical error. It allows a spouse or domestic partner, children, and in some cases other dependents or heirs to seek compensation for funeral and burial costs, the financial support the person would have provided, and the loss of their love, companionship and guidance. The clock generally runs two years from the date of death, and it can be far shorter when a public agency is involved. We can explain where your family stands and help you understand your legal options.
California limits who may bring a wrongful death claim, starting with a spouse or domestic partner and children, then certain dependents and heirs. We can help sort out your family's standing before anything else.
Most claims must be filed within two years of the date of death, but cases against a city, county, or state agency involve much shorter notice windows. We protect those rights promptly from the start.
