One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesSix people died on Folsom's roads in 2025, the city's most recent final count. Behind that figure are households near E Bidwell Street, Iron Point Road, Blue Ravine Road and Riley Street that are now arranging services instead of weeknight dinners. If that describes your family, we are sorry you are reading this. A wrongful death claim in Sacramento County is a civil matter, kept entirely apart from anything the district attorney may pursue. Its purpose is practical: to recover funeral and burial costs, the financial support your loved one would have provided, and the loss of their love, companionship and guidance. California limits who may bring the case. A spouse or domestic partner and children come first, followed by certain dependents and heirs. The filing deadline is generally two years from the date of death, and it shrinks considerably when a public agency is involved. LawProactive is not a law firm. We are a free service that pairs Folsom families with an independent attorney who works on contingency, meaning no fee unless there is a recovery.
California gives standing first to a spouse or domestic partner and children, then to certain dependents and heirs. The attorney we connect you with can sort out quickly whether you qualify and who else should be part of the claim.
Most wrongful death claims must be filed within two years of the date of death, and the window is much shorter when a city, county or state agency may share fault. Early attention protects your options.
