California attorneys pursue compensation for surviving families statewide

Any unexpected death of a family member is a tragedy, but it is even more traumatic when it results because of someone else’s negligence. When someone else is at fault, surviving family members may have grounds to pursue a wrongful death lawsuit. Our attorneys at Mastagni Holstedt, APC provide clients with excellent legal guidance acquired from decades of legal experience.

  • Putative spouse
  • Putative spouse’s children
  • Stepchildren
  • Parents
  • A minor dependent who resided with the deceased 180 days prior to death
  • Siblings
  • Children of deceased siblings
  • Grandparents
  • Children of a deceased spouse
  • Next of kin
