One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesWhen a death in San Leandro traces back to someone else's carelessness, the family left behind is asked to make hard decisions at the worst time. A wrongful death claim is one of those decisions. It is a civil action, separate from any criminal case the Alameda County District Attorney may pursue, and it exists so that the people who depended on the person who died can seek compensation for what was taken from them. In 2025, public records show 304 injury collisions in San Leandro, with 405 people hurt and 3 lives lost. Many clustered along I-880, Route 185, E 14th Street and Washington Avenue, and reports tended to peak on Wednesdays between 5 and 7 p.m. Behind each fatality is a household adjusting to an empty chair. LawProactive does not represent you. We are a free service that matches you with an independent attorney who handles wrongful death cases and works on contingency, so no fee is owed unless there is a recovery. You talk, they listen, and you decide whether to move forward.
California limits who has standing: a surviving spouse or domestic partner and children come first, followed by certain dependents and heirs. An attorney sorts out who belongs in the claim before anything is filed.
Most wrongful death actions must be filed within two years of the date of death, and the deadline is much shorter when a city, county or state agency is involved. Early counsel keeps that clock from running out quietly.

Recoverable losses reach beyond funeral and burial costs to include lost financial support and the loss of love, companionship and guidance. An attorney documents each of these so nothing is left off the table.
