One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesSonoma County's most recent full-year data recorded one traffic death among the injury collisions logged in Windsor, a reminder that even a small town sees real loss on its streets. If that death happened because someone else was careless, whether on US-101, Old Redwood Highway, or a quieter neighborhood road, California law allows certain surviving family members to pursue a wrongful death claim. This is separate from any criminal case and focuses on the financial and emotional toll left behind. LawProactive doesn't practice law ourselves; we connect grieving families in Windsor with an independent personal injury attorney who can review what happened and explain what options may exist. There's no cost to start a conversation, and no obligation. We know this is one of the hardest calls a family will make, and we try to make that first step as simple as possible.
California limits who has standing to bring a wrongful death claim, generally a spouse, domestic partner, or children first, with other dependents or heirs eligible in some cases. An attorney can help sort out who qualifies in your family's specific circumstances.
Most wrongful death claims in California must be filed within two years of the date of death, but claims against a government entity, such as one involving a county road, carry a much shorter notice deadline. Acting sooner rather than later helps preserve those options.

California law allows families to seek funeral and burial costs, lost financial support the deceased would have provided, and compensation for the loss of love, companionship, and guidance. An independent attorney can walk you through how these losses are typically calculated.
