Wrongful Death Attorneys – Irvine

When a loved one dies, it is both emotionally and financially devastating for family members. Wrongful death lawsuits can enable the deceased person’s loved ones to ease the financial burden of their loss, as well as hold accountable the person, people, company or entity responsible for causing their family member’s tragic death.

A wrongful death case can be brought whenever one person dies as the result of the wrongful act or negligence of another person or “entity” – such as a business or corporation.

While the grief may seem unbearable, family members must file wrongful death lawsuits within a short, specific time period (“statute of limitations”) or they will lose their right to sue. In California, wrongful death cases usually must be filed within two years of the date of the loved one’s death.

While no amount of money can ever compensate you for the loss of your loved one, our caring an experienced wrongful death lawyers can help ensure you receive the monetary damages to which you are entitled – so you and your family can move forward with your life. We will guide you through the legal process with compassion and skill – to help you obtain the maximum compensation, while bringing the responsible parties to justice – providing you with a financially secure future and hopefully also a degree of closure.

Who Can Bring a Wrongful Death Suit

Surviving Spouses & Domestic Partners can bring a lawsuit for lost companionship resulting from their spouses death, and for the surviving spouse’s emotional trauma arising out of the death.

Minor Children – and occasionally adult children – may be awarded damages for the lost benefit of a relationship with their deceased parent, including comfort and support. If any of the deceased’s children have died before the deceased, their children (the deceased’s grandchildren) may be able to bring a wrongful death suit. Additionally, step children who relied on the deceased person for support may be able to sue for wrongful death.

Parents of Minor Children – and occasionally parents of adult children – can recover damages for their emotional trauma and the lost relationship with a deceased child.

Heirs and Executors (in some cases) can also sue. If there are no survivors of the deceased person as listed above – then those entitled to inherit that person’s property may in some cases bring a wrongful death lawsuit. The executor or administrator of a person’s estate may also bring a wrongful death suit.
