Claim it before someone else doesLosing a family member in a traffic collision changes everything, and the days that follow are often overwhelming. In 2025, Yolo County recorded six traffic deaths alongside hundreds of injury collisions, many along corridors like US-50, I-80, West Capitol Avenue, and Jefferson Boulevard, with Friday evening hours between 5 and 7 p.m. seeing the heaviest reported activity. California law allows a spouse, domestic partner, or children to pursue a wrongful death claim first, followed by certain dependents or heirs if none exist. We're here to review what happened, explain the two-year filing deadline, and walk through what losses may be recoverable. You focus on your family; our team can help you navigate the legal path forward.
California limits who may bring a wrongful death claim, starting with a spouse, domestic partner, or children before other dependents or heirs. We can help clarify where your family stands.
Wrongful death claims generally must be filed within two years of the date of death, and that window can be shorter if a government entity was involved, such as a city road issue. Missing it can end a claim before it starts.
