Claim it before someone else doesLosing a family member in a traffic collision changes everything overnight, and the practical questions — funeral costs, lost income, what happens next — often arrive before anyone has had time to grieve. Corcoran's public-record crash data shows collisions along corridors like Whitley Avenue, Rt 43, Dairy Avenue, and Orange Avenue, with reported activity tending to peak on Thursday afternoons between 3 and 5 p.m. Any one of these could turn fatal, leaving a spouse, domestic partner, or children to sort through loss and liability at once. California law gives certain family members and dependents standing to pursue a wrongful death claim, but the timeline is strict and the details matter. We handle wrongful death claims and can review what happened and explain your options, free of charge and without obligation.
California law limits standing to a spouse, domestic partner, and children first, with other dependents or heirs eligible in some cases. We can clarify who in your family qualifies before any claim moves forward.
Most wrongful death claims must be filed within two years of the date of death, but that window shrinks significantly if a government entity (like a public roadway agency) may be involved. Acting early preserves options.

*No attorney's fee unless there is a recovery. The client may be responsible for court costs and case expenses.
California allows recovery for funeral and burial costs, but also for lost financial support and the loss of a loved one's love, companionship, and guidance. A civil case is separate from any criminal charges the driver may face.
