Claim it before someone else doesLosing a family member in a traffic collision changes everything, and the legal side of it often arrives at the worst possible time. Greenfield sits along corridors like Oak Avenue, El Camino Real, Elm Avenue, and Walnut Avenue, where public crash records show ongoing injury collisions each year, with reported crashes tending to peak on Saturday evenings between 5 and 7 p.m. While the most recent final year of data showed no traffic deaths recorded, serious injury collisions still occur regularly, and any one of them can turn fatal for a family left behind. California law gives surviving spouses, domestic partners, and children the first right to bring a wrongful death claim, with other dependents or heirs eligible in certain situations. LawProactive doesn't practice law ourselves; we simply help connect grieving families in Greenfield with an independent attorney who can explain their options, free of charge and with no obligation.
California limits who has standing to bring a wrongful death claim, starting with a spouse, domestic partner, or children, and extending to other dependents or heirs in some cases. An attorney can help clarify who in your family qualifies.
Most wrongful death claims in California must be filed within two years of the date of death, though claims against a government entity carry a much shorter deadline. Waiting too long can permanently close the door on a claim.

*No attorney's fee unless there is a recovery. The client may be responsible for court costs and case expenses.
California law allows families to seek recovery for funeral and burial costs, lost financial support the deceased would have provided, and the loss of love, companionship, and guidance. A civil wrongful death case proceeds separately from any criminal case tied to the same crash.
