Wrongful Death
Like all civil cases, wrongful death claims require certain elements to be present. In California, plaintiffs must show that:
- the death was caused by another party's negligent or intentional conduct.
- surviving family members have suffered the loss of financial support, love, care, comfort, supervision, guidance, household assistance, and general society previously provided by the deceased.
But winning a wrongful death claim requires something else, too: The skill of an experienced, dedicated attorney. One who doesn't just understand what can be recovered -- including economic damages, such as the financial contributions the deceased would have made to the family, and noneconomic damages for loss of companionship and affection -- but knows how juries think and vote. A lawyer who can make the best possible case -- and get the best possible results.
