When Tragedy Strikes: Finding Hope and Justice in Wrongful Death Cases
Losing a loved one is one of life’s most heart-wrenching experiences. When that loss comes suddenly and unjustly due to someone else’s actions, the pain can feel unbearable. At Banafshe Law Firm, we understand the profound grief you’re facing, and we’re here to help you find a path forward.
Who Can Seek Justice?
- Spouses and domestic partners: Because your future together was stolen.
- Children: To secure the support and guidance you’ve lost.
- Parents: For the unthinkable pain of losing a child.
- Dependents: To protect your financial stability.
If you’ve lost a spouse, parent, child or were financially dependent on the deceased, you may have the right to file a claim. Remember, you’re not alone in this. We’re here to guide you every step of the way.
Time is of the Essence
In California, you have two years from the date of death to file a claim. While taking legal action may feel overwhelming right now, it’s crucial to protect your rights. We can handle the legal complexities while you focus on healing.
Understanding Liability: When Someone is at Fault
Wrongful death can occur in many ways – a careless driver, a negligent doctor, or an abusive caregiver. Whatever the circumstances, if someone’s actions or negligence caused your loved one’s death, they can be held accountable. The same is true even if they weren’t criminally charged.
Beyond Compensation: The Survival Action
In some cases, we can also file a survival action on behalf of your loved one’s estate, which allows us to seek justice for any suffering they endured before passing and address any legal claims they had.
