Claim it before someone else doesSeven people did not come home from Redding's roads in 2025, according to public collision records for the year. Behind each of those numbers is a household in Shasta County now sorting through funeral arrangements, unpaid bills, and a silence no one prepared for. When a death follows someone else's careless driving on Churn Creek Road, Route 273, Hilltop Drive or Hartnell Avenue — or a preventable failure somewhere else entirely — California law gives certain family members a civil path to hold that party accountable. A wrongful death claim is not a criminal case; it moves on its own track, whether or not prosecutors ever file charges. It can recover funeral and burial costs, the financial support the person would have provided, and the loss of their love, companionship and guidance. We handle wrongful death claims on contingency, so you can ask questions without adding another expense to an already difficult season.
California limits wrongful death standing to a spouse or domestic partner and children first, then certain dependents and heirs. We can confirm where your family fits before anyone spends time on paperwork.
Most claims must be filed within two years of the date of death, and the window is shorter when a government entity is involved. Getting started early keeps those dates from slipping past while you grieve.

Recoverable losses reach beyond funeral and burial costs to the financial support your loved one provided and the love, companionship and guidance that no longer fill the house. We work on contingency, so there is no fee unless there is a recovery.
