Wrongful Death

Losing a loved one due to someone else’s recklessness or negligence can be a confusing and isolating time in your life. There are often urgent and difficult questions about the circumstances of your loved one’s death that leave you little time to grieve and process. While no amount of money will ever be enough to compensate you for losing someone you love, you may be entitled to recover money from those responsible. California law allows certain surviving family members to sue the negligent person, business, or other entity responsible for the death of their loved one. Let our experienced and compassionate wrongful death attorneys at Esposito Law stand by you through your tragedy. 

There are a number of incidents and accidents that can lead to a wrongful death. Some of these include, but are not limited to:

• Car accident
• Defective product
• Slip and fall
• Inadequate security (at an event, venue or other)
• Medical malpractice
• Construction site accident

To prove that your loved one was the victim of wrongful death, you will need to exhibit the defendant’s duty of care to the victim, their violation or negligence of that duty of care, how that violation resulted in the victim’s passing, and the financial and non-economic impact of the death.
