Claim it before someone else doesWhen a collision on Rt 46E, US-101, or Creston Road takes someone's life, the days that follow are overwhelming. San Luis Obispo County traffic data shows Paso Robles sees traffic deaths each year, and behind every count is a family trying to make sense of what happened while also facing funeral costs and lost income. California law allows a spouse, domestic partner, or children to pursue a wrongful death claim, with other dependents or heirs sometimes eligible if none of those relatives survive. This is a separate civil matter from any police investigation or criminal charges, and it moves on its own timeline. Our team can review what happened, explain your options under California law, and help you understand what comes next, without any obligation or upfront fee.
California law limits who can file a wrongful death claim, starting with a spouse, domestic partner, or children before other dependents or heirs. We can clarify where you fit and how to proceed.
Most wrongful death claims must be filed within two years of the date of death, and that window shrinks significantly if a government entity is involved. Waiting too long can close the door on a claim entirely.
