One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesWillows is a small place. With about 6,069 residents, a sudden death here is rarely anonymous; neighbors, coworkers and classmates feel it too. Public collision records for 2025 list a single injury crash in the city and no traffic deaths, which means a fatal loss stands out all the more when it happens, whether on Interstate 5 Northbound, along W Wood Street or Sycamore Street, or out on Rt 162. Fatal harm is not limited to the road, either. A workplace incident on a Glenn County farm, a medication mistake, or neglect in a care setting can leave a family facing the same emptiness. California law allows a spouse or domestic partner and children, and in some cases other dependents or heirs, to bring a civil wrongful death claim. That claim is separate from anything a prosecutor may do, and it generally must be filed within two years of the date of death. We handle wrongful death claims on contingency, so there is nothing to pay unless there is a recovery.
California gives a spouse or domestic partner and children the first right to bring a wrongful death claim, with certain dependents and heirs following. We can sort out your family's standing before anything is filed.
Most wrongful death claims must be filed within two years of the date of death, and the window is shorter when a city, county or state agency is involved. Early contact protects that deadline.
