You want and deserve answers, and if necessary you want justice.
At Penney and Associates, we understand how difficult a death in the family can be, and we want to help you through the process of filing a wrongful death claim. Whether the loss of a loved one is the result of an accident, or the result of criminal actions or neglect, a skilled attorney is one of the best allies you can have at your side.
WHY YOU WANT PENNEY AND ASSOCIATES ON YOUR SIDE FOR A WRONGFUL DEATH CLAIM
A wrongful death is when person dies as a result of a wrongful act, or is the result of negligence either by an individual or entity. The surviving family of the victim, a spouse, domestic partner, or any related children, can file a wrongful death lawsuit in California. Financial dependents of the deceased, including their parents or any stepchildren, are also able to file the claim.
If there is no surviving family, anyone who would be entitled to the property of the deceased are able to file the claim. These claims allow a bereaved family to win compensation based on the financial losses resulting from the death of their loved ones.
Depending on the circumstances, a wrongful death claim can be complex to file. Without an experienced attorney, you could fail to win fair compensation for your loss.
WE CAN HELP YOU WIN COMPENSATION FOR YOUR LOSS
The death of your loved one could potentially leave your family without a vital source of income. Then there are the wide range of expenses associated with the incident. The cost of burial, of replacing a totaled automobile, and the costs of moving to a new home are just a small sampling of the financial difficulties you could be experiencing.
Then there are the less obvious costs of such tragedies, the emotional distress you experience day after day. The loss of a life-long companion, a brother, a son or daughter can leave scars that cannot be seen, robbing you of the zest for life. As with property and financial losses, the emotional and physical suffering in the wake can remain a burden for years after the incident.

We can help you file your wrongful death claims, and know how to work with our clients to bring about a favorable result.

Fulfilling all five of these requirements while building a legal case is not an easy thing.

The lawyers of Penney & Associates can help you win your case and receive the financial compensation you need to recuperate and rebuild your life.
