Common Causes of Wrongful Death Claims

A wrongful death occurs because of the actions of someone else. Negligence that causes an accident is often the basis of a legal claim.

Some common causes of wrongful death claims include:

  • Car accidents
  • Truck, motorcycle, bicycle, and pedestrian accidents
  • Construction and workplace accidents
  • Dangerous conditions on-premises, slip and fall
  • Chemical and toxic exposure
  • Dangerous drugs and pharmaceutical products
  • Medical malpractice and negligence
  • Nursing home/Senior abuse and neglect
  • Assault and battery; intentional homicide
  • Boating, sports, and recreation accidents

You have a wrongful death claim if the death occurred because of negligence, recklessness, or intentional misconduct of another party. Our lawyers are investigators. We can take steps to determine what happened and who may have the legal responsibility to pay damages. When it comes to dangerous products, proving the underlying reason for the defect is not required.

Financial and Emotional Costs of a Wrongful Death Case

Losing a loved one is devastating in many ways. Not only are you suffering financially, but you are struggling emotionally. It may be hard to imagine the future. You may claim both economic and non-economic damages.

Damages you may claim in a wrongful death case include:

  • Funeral costs
  • Last medical bills
  • Lost income and benefits
  • Unrealized gifts and inheritance
  • Services to the household
  • Lost guidance, love, and companionship
  • Pain and suffering*

*Effective 2022, pain and suffering damages are compensable in a California wrongful death action.

California law recognizes the many types of suffering that come from losing a loved one. The damages that you may claim reflect financial losses like outstanding medical bills and lost income. However, you may also claim for the emotional suffering you are experiencing and the loss of the companionship and guidance of your loved one. Our lawyers make sure that your legal documents are complete to claim all the types of compensation that are appropriate.

Who may be accountable for wrongful death?

Some parties who may be named in a wrongful death claim are:

  • The driver
  • An operator
  • Business owner
  • Employer
  • Vehicle manufacturer
  • Product manufacturer
  • Doctor and the healthcare organization they work for
  • Third-party contractor
  • Government entity or agency

The party who is accountable for wrongful death may not be immediately obvious.

Naming the appropriate party in a claim is extremely important. It impacts your ability to fully collect fair compensation for your loss. Our lawyers look at the entire situation to determine who to name in the claim.

What is a survival action?

Any exploration of a wrongful death claim in California should also include a discussion of a survival action. A survival action recognizes the losses the victim suffers prior to death. The California law for survival actions is California Code of Civil Procedure § 377.30. It is brought by the estate, and, when appropriate, it may be brought in addition to a wrongful death claim. Our lawyers can help you understand how a survival action may be a part of receiving justice for your loved one.

What is the time limit for a wrongful death claim in San Bernardino?

You have two years to bring a wrongful death claim in San Bernardino. The time limit is measured from the date of death. For a survival action, you have two years from the wrongful act or six months from death, whichever occurs later. If you miss the deadline, the claim may be dismissed even if it is a strong case.

They really care for the well-being of their clients. I would highly recommend LA Century Law!

Insurance company was against me, this law firm got the best of my lawsuit. I highly recommend L A Century, my attorney for life. Thank you Ryan and Marco, you are the best.

Marchelle Y

Attorney Daneshrad is very professional and courteous. I called him after being involved in a rear ender. I didn’t know anything about anything when it came to the process for making a claim after a car accident. Everyone at his office including Jennifer did everything in their power to make sure I was taken care of.

They made doctors appointments and regularly called to check-in on me. We ended up having to file a lawsuit. Three months after we did, attorney Daneshrad called me with great news! We had a settlement offer. It was for a lot more than I could have imagined. It has been three weeks since the settlement and he still calls me to check in on my injuries. You can tell he really cares about. He isn’t just about the numbers. Thank you attorney daneshrad! And happy holidays!
