California limits wrongful death standing to specific people, starting with a spouse, domestic partner, or children, and extending to other dependents or heirs in certain cases. We can help clarify where you fit before time runs short.
Most wrongful death claims in California must be filed within two years of the date of death, and that window can be shorter if a government entity was involved. Getting started early helps protect your ability to act.
