Compassionate Legal Support For Families After A Fatal Motorcycle Accident
The loss of a loved one in a motorcycle accident is an unimaginable tragedy.

If you've lost a loved one in a motorcycle accident, we are dedicated to helping your family navigate this difficult time and secure the compensation you deserve.
Understanding Wrongful Death in Motorcycle Accidents
Motorcycle accidents are often catastrophic due to the lack of protection for riders. Injuries such as spinal cord damage, traumatic brain injuries, and severe hemorrhaging can lead to fatalities. When these tragedies occur because of another party's negligence, the victim's family may have the right to file a wrongful death lawsuit.
Our attorneys work tirelessly to identify the responsible parties - whether a reckless driver, a manufacturer of defective parts, or another negligent entity - and hold them accountable for their actions.
Who Can File A Wrongful Death Claim In California?
California law allows certain individuals to file a wrongful death lawsuit when a loved one has passed away due to someone else's negligence. Eligible parties include:
- The surviving spouse or domestic partner of the decedent.
- The decedent's children or grandchildren.
- Minor children who lived with the decedent for at least 180 days before the death and were at least 50% dependent on the decedent for financial support.
If you're unsure about your eligibility to file a wrongful death claim, our attorneys can help clarify your rights and guide you through the process.
Compensation Available In Wrongful Death Claims
While no amount of money can replace a loved one, a wrongful death claim seeks to provide financial security and justice for the surviving family members. Damages may include:
- Loss of Income: Compensation for the decedent's future earning capacity.
- Loss of Companionship: For the emotional pain caused by the loss of love, care, and guidance.
- Loss of Protection: Damages for the absence of the decedent's support and security.
- Loss of Consortium: For the loss of the marital relationship and intimacy.
