One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesTiburon is a small place, and the public record reflects that: in 2025 the town logged four injury collisions, six people hurt, and no traffic deaths. Still, losing someone never happens on a schedule or only where statistics point. A fatal crash on Tiburon Boulevard, a fall at a Paradise Drive property, a medical mistake at a facility outside town, or a defective product used at home can all lead a Marin County family to ask what comes next. Under California law, a wrongful death claim is a civil action, separate from any criminal case, brought first by a spouse, domestic partner, or children, and then by certain dependents or heirs. It can cover funeral and burial costs, the financial support the person would have provided, and the loss of their love, companionship, and guidance. LawProactive is not a law firm. We are a free service that connects Tiburon families with an independent attorney who handles these cases on contingency, so there is no fee unless there is a recovery.
California puts a spouse or domestic partner and children first in line, followed by certain dependents and heirs. An attorney can sort out who in your family has standing before anything is filed.
Most claims must be brought within two years of the date of death, and the window is shorter when a city, county, or state agency may be responsible. Early guidance protects that deadline.
