One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesNobody plans for the phone call that changes everything. In 2025, San Bernardino recorded 32 traffic deaths, along with 1,380 injury collisions on streets like E Highland Avenue and W Baseline Street and on SR-210 and I-215. Behind each of those numbers is a household in San Bernardino County trying to figure out what comes next. A wrongful death claim is one part of that. It is a civil action, completely separate from any criminal case, and it exists so a family can recover funeral and burial costs, the financial support the person would have provided, and compensation for the loss of their love, companionship and guidance. California limits who may bring the claim, starting with a spouse or domestic partner and children, and the deadline is generally two years from the date of death, with a shorter window when a public agency is involved. LawProactive is a free service, not a law firm. We listen, then connect you with an independent attorney who handles these cases on contingency, so there is no fee unless there is a recovery.
California gives standing first to a spouse or domestic partner and children, and only then to certain dependents or heirs. An attorney can sort out where your family fits before anything is filed.
Most claims must be brought within two years of the date of death, and the window is shorter when a government entity is involved. Getting connected early keeps those dates from slipping.
