One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesFour people died in traffic collisions in Yucca Valley during 2025. Behind that count are Morongo Basin families now sorting through a loss no one prepared for. Many local crashes happen along Route 62, known here as Twentynine Palms Highway, or on Route 247, and reports cluster on Friday afternoons between 3 and 5 p.m. A wrongful death claim is the civil side of what follows, separate from any criminal case the San Bernardino County District Attorney may bring. It exists to address what the family lost: funeral and burial costs, the income the person would have provided, and the love, companionship and guidance that cannot be replaced. California limits who may file, beginning with a spouse, domestic partner and children, and it sets a two-year deadline from the date of death, shorter when a public agency is involved. We handle wrongful death cases on contingency, meaning no fee unless there is a recovery.
California gives standing first to a surviving spouse or domestic partner and children, then to certain dependents and heirs. We can sort out where your family fits before anything is filed.
Most claims must be brought within two years of the date of death, but the window shrinks sharply when a city, county, or state agency is involved. Early guidance keeps those dates from slipping by.
