One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesContra Costa County's public crash data shows Pinole recorded 68 injury collisions and 96 injured people in the most recent reporting year, with no reported traffic deaths logged in that same count — a reminder that most crashes here don't turn fatal, but when one does, the loss is total. Corridors like I-80, its eastbound and westbound stretches, and San Pablo Avenue carry heavy volume, and Wednesday evenings between 5 and 7 p.m. see a noticeable spike in reported crashes. If a loved one died because of someone else's negligence on these roads or anywhere else in Pinole, California law gives certain family members the right to pursue a civil wrongful death claim, separate from any criminal proceeding. We handle wrongful death cases directly, offering a free consultation to explain your options, evaluate what happened, and walk you through next steps without any upfront cost.
California law limits wrongful death standing to a spouse, domestic partner, or children first, with other dependents or heirs eligible in some situations. We can clarify who in your family qualifies to bring the claim.
You generally have two years from the date of death to file a wrongful death claim, and that window shrinks significantly if a government entity was involved. Waiting even a few months can put important evidence and deadlines at risk.
