One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesTwo people lost their lives in Corona traffic during 2025, out of 735 injury collisions reported across the city that year. Numbers that small are really names: a household on a side street off Main Street, a commuter who never made it home from SR-91 or I-15. When a death is caused by someone else's carelessness, California law allows certain relatives to bring a wrongful death claim in Riverside County civil court. A surviving spouse or domestic partner and children have the first right to file; if there are none, certain dependents and heirs may step in. The claim can recover funeral and burial expenses, the financial support the person would have provided, and the loss of their love, companionship and guidance. It moves on its own track, separate from any criminal charges. LawProactive is not a law firm. We are a free service that connects Corona families with an independent attorney who takes these cases on contingency, so there is no fee unless there is a recovery.
California limits standing to a spouse or domestic partner and children first, then certain dependents and heirs. An attorney can confirm where your family stands before anything is filed.
Most wrongful death claims must be filed within two years of the date of death, and claims involving a government entity carry a much shorter window. Getting connected now protects those dates.
