One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesWhen a traffic collision takes a life in Lompoc, the grief is immediate but the legal questions often aren't. Santa Barbara County recorded a traffic death in the most recent final crash year, alongside dozens of injury collisions on corridors like Rt 1, H Street, Rt 246, and O Street. For families left behind, California law allows a wrongful death claim separate from any criminal proceedings — but only certain people qualify to bring it, and the clock starts ticking the day of death. LawProactive doesn't practice law; we're a free service that connects grieving families with an independent personal injury attorney familiar with these cases. That attorney can help sort out who has standing, what losses may be recoverable, and how to move forward without adding legal stress to an already painful time. There's no fee unless the case results in a recovery.
California limits who can file a wrongful death claim — typically a spouse, domestic partner, or children first, with other dependents or heirs eligible in certain situations. An independent attorney can help your family understand where you fit.
California generally gives families two years from the date of death to file a wrongful death claim, though claims against a government entity often require action much sooner. Waiting too long can close the door on a claim entirely.

*No attorney's fee unless there is a recovery. The client may be responsible for court costs and case expenses.
Recoverable losses can include funeral and burial costs and lost financial support, but California law also recognizes the loss of love, companionship, and guidance a family has suffered. A knowledgeable attorney can help make sure all of these are accounted for.
