What is wrongful death?

Generally speaking, it refers to a death that was caused by the negligent or careless actions of another individual, company, or entity.

When you hire Padilla Law Group, LLP, we take the burden off you by acting as your representative and your voice, so that you can concentrate on addressing your grief without the worry of managing a lawsuit.

Who Can Sue For Wrongful Death In California?

California law survival statute states that certain family members are entitled to sue for wrongful death. These people include:

  • The surviving spouse, domestic partner, children, and offspring of deceased children
  • Dependents of the victim, and the spouse, children of the spouse, stepchildren, or parents, if the spouse was involved in a voidable relationship without knowing it was invalid.
  • A minor, if he or she resided with the victim for 180 days prior to the death, and if the victim provided more than half of the minor’s financial support.
