Wrongful Death Attorney
Losing a loved one in an accident that could have been prevented is one of the most devastating experiences someone can go through.

While no amount of money can replace your loss, pursuing a wrongful death claim can hold the negligent party accountable and provide critical support for your family’s future. Our California wrongful death lawyer is here to guide you with compassion and fight for the justice your loved one deserves. When you’re ready to discuss your options, reach out to the Choulos & Tsoi Law Firm today for a free consultation.
California Wrongful Death Lawyer
Wrongful death claims arise when another’s careless or reckless actions directly lead to someone getting so severely injured or ill that they pass away. We represent grieving families throughout California in a wide range of cases, including:
- Fatal car, motorcycle, and truck accidents
- Bicycle and pedestrian collisions
- Dangerous premises or property hazards
- Defective products or unsafe equipment
- Medical negligence resulting in loss of life
Families who file wrongful death claims often seek compensation for funeral and burial expenses, loss of financial support, loss of companionship, and the profound emotional suffering that comes from losing a loved one. Our California wrongful death lawyer understands that these cases are never just about money, they’re about accountability, closure, and securing stability for those left behind. We’re here to advocate for you when you need it most.
