Losing a loved one is devastating. When someone else’s negligence causes a death, California law may allow eligible family members to pursue a wrongful death claim.
For example, eligible families may seek compensation for lost financial support, funeral expenses, and loss of companionship. In addition, strict legal deadlines can affect their right to file a claim.
Because every family’s circumstances are different, Hamed Law Firm takes the time to review each case and explain the available legal options.
We review the circumstances of the incident, available reports, photographs, witness information, records, and other evidence that may help establish responsibility.
Depending on the circumstances, one or more individuals, businesses, property owners, employers, or other parties may bear responsibility for the conduct that caused the death.
A wrongful death claim may involve financial and personal losses resulting from the death. We gather the records and information necessary to understand the impact on the surviving family.
We present the claim, address disputes concerning liability and damages, and pursue a resolution through negotiation or further legal action when appropriate.
Wrongful death cases require both thorough preparation and sensitivity to what the family is experiencing. We focus on preserving evidence, understanding the circumstances of the loss, and presenting the claim carefully and comprehensively.
