Claim it before someone else doesWhen a death happens because of someone else's carelessness — whether on I-80, San Pablo Avenue, Rumrill Boulevard, or elsewhere in the city — surviving family members are often left sorting through grief and unanswered questions at the same time. California law gives certain relatives and dependents the right to pursue a wrongful death claim, but that right comes with a strict two-year filing deadline (shorter if a government agency is involved, which can matter given San Pablo's city-maintained roads). We review what happened, explain your options, and handle the legal work on a contingency basis. You focus on your family. Our team focuses on helping you understand where you stand under California law.
California limits who can file a wrongful death claim, generally starting with a spouse, domestic partner, or children before extending to other dependents. We can quickly tell you whether you qualify and who else may need to be included.
You generally have two years from the date of death to file, but that window shortens significantly if a government entity — such as the city of San Pablo — may be responsible. Getting in touch with us sooner rather than later helps protect that deadline.

*No attorney's fee unless there is a recovery. The client may be responsible for court costs and case expenses.
California law allows families to seek recovery for lost financial support and the loss of love, companionship, and guidance, not just funeral and burial expenses. We can help you understand the full scope of what may be claimed.
