California Wrongful Death Law - Damages

The loss of a loved one is a tragic event. No amount of money can ever replace a parent, spouse or child. However, when someone dies through the fault of another, the surviving family members may be compensated for their losses in a wrongful death lawsuit in California. Available damages in a wrongful death lawsuit include medical expenses, pain and suffering, loss of future earnings, and loss of support, love, affection and guidance.

A deceased family member obviously cannot file a lawsuit against the person responsible for their death, so their estate is authorized by California wrongful death law to do so. An executor or administrator, who may be a spouse (husband or wife), child, parent, or other relative, may represent the estate in a wrongful death lawsuit. At the Law Offices of Howard Alan Kitay we handle serious injuries, fatal accidents, and wrongful death lawsuits and litigation in the following situations:

• Auto accidents, car crashes, and motor vehicle collisions
• Motorcycle accidents, crashes and collisions
• Drunk driving crashes
• Deaths involving falling merchandise
