One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesWhen a fatal collision happens along Rt 137, Blackstone, Bardsley, or SR-99, the surviving family is left carrying grief and questions all at once. Tulare County recorded 1 traffic death alongside dozens of injury collisions in the most recent final crash year, and each one leaves behind people who now have to figure out how to move forward. California law gives certain surviving family members, starting with a spouse, domestic partner, or children, the right to pursue a wrongful death claim, and other dependents or heirs may qualify if none of those exist. Our team handles wrongful death claims for Tulare families. We can walk through what happened, explain the two-year filing deadline, and help sort through funeral costs, lost income, and the loss of a loved one's guidance and companionship. There's no cost to start a conversation, and no obligation to move forward.
California limits wrongful death standing to specific people: spouses, domestic partners, and children first, then other dependents or heirs. We can clarify where your family fits before any paperwork is filed.
California generally allows two years from the date of death to file, though claims against a government entity move on a much shorter timeline. Given how many claims hinge on this fact, getting an attorney involved early matters.
