One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesLosing a family member in a traffic collision changes everything, and it often happens without warning on roads many Susanville residents drive every day, including Main Street, Paul Bunyan Road, and Skyline Road. Lassen County's most recent full-year public records show 14 injury collisions and 18 people injured, with reported crashes tending to cluster on Tuesday afternoons between 2 and 4 p.m. While that same reporting year recorded zero traffic deaths, families across the county have faced this loss before and will again, and they deserve support when it happens. California law allows a spouse, domestic partner, or children to bring a wrongful death claim, with other dependents sometimes eligible depending on the situation. LawProactive is a free connection service, not a law firm, and we can put you in touch with an independent attorney who takes wrongful death cases on contingency, meaning there's no fee unless money is recovered for your family.
California limits who can file a wrongful death claim, usually starting with a spouse, domestic partner, or children before extending to other dependents. An attorney can help sort out who in your family qualifies to bring the claim.
Most wrongful death claims must be filed within two years of the date of death, and that window shrinks significantly if a government entity was involved. Getting connected early helps preserve evidence and protect your family's options.
