Cases involving a working parent or a commercial defendant such as a trucking company can reach seven figures, but every case depends on its own facts.<\/p><\/details>\n      <details><summary>What is the difference between a wrongful death claim and a survival action?<\/summary><p>A wrongful death claim compensates the family for their own loss. A survival action under California Code of Civil Procedure section 377.30 belongs to the deceased person's estate and recovers what that person could have claimed had they lived, including punitive damages against the defendant.<\/p><\/details>\n      <details><summary>Can siblings file a wrongful death claim in California?<\/summary><p>Only if there is no surviving spouse, domestic partner, or children. When no primary heirs exist, siblings and other relatives may be eligible under California's laws of intestate succession.<\/p><\/details>\n      <details><summary>How long do I have to file a wrongful death claim?<\/summary><p>Generally two years from the date of death under Code of Civil Procedure section 335.1. If a public entity was involved, such as a city vehicle, BART, or a county road, a formal government claim must be filed within six months.<\/p><\/details>\n      <details><summary>What if the person died months after the accident?<\/summary><p>You can still file. As long as the accident was the proximate cause of the death, the claim remains valid even if the death came much later. The two-year period runs from the date of death.<\/p><\/details>\n      <details><summary>Can I recover punitive damages in a wrongful death case?<\/summary><p>Not in the wrongful death claim itself, but a survival action brought by the estate can include punitive damages when the defendant's conduct was especially reckless, such as drunk driving. We evaluate every case for both claims.<\/p><\/details>\n      <details><summary>What if there is a criminal case against the driver?<\/summary><p>Your civil case is independent of any criminal proceedings. Even if the driver is not convicted, the lower burden of proof in civil court often allows the family's claim to succeed.<\/p><\/details>\n      <details><summary>How much does a wrongful death lawyer cost?<\/summary><p>We work on a contingency fee. We advance court costs and expert witness fees. If we do not recover money for your family, you owe us nothing.<\/p><\/details>\n    <\/section>\n\n  <\/div>\n\n  <!-- ================= FORM ================= -->\n  <section class=\"slf-wd-form-sec\" id=\"slf-wd-form\" aria-labelledby=\"slf-wd-form-h\">\n    <div class=\"slf-wd-form-grid\">\n      <div class=\"slf-wd-form-copy\">\n        <span class=\"slf-wd-badge\">Private consultation<\/span>\n        <h2 id=\"slf-wd-form-h\">Tell Us What Happened.
