Oakland Wrongful Death Lawyer
Oakland Wrongful Death Attorney
A driver runs a red light and kills a pedestrian. A landlord fails to repair a balcony, and a tenant falls to her death. A boater drives too close to shore, fatally injuring a swimmer.
The untimely death of loved ones in a fatal accident is tragic under any circumstances. When the death was due to someone's negligence, it can be devastating.
Winning Wrongful Death Claims Since 1978
No amount of money can ever make up for the loss of a loved one, but financial compensation for fatal accidents is the only remedy the law allows. In some cases, a financial recovery helps replace the deceased person's earnings, allowing the family to survive financially. Pursuing compensation for a wrongful death is also a way to send a message to the responsible parties. It can bring attention to the problem and help prevent others from suffering a similar fate.
