Determined California Attorney Handles Wrongful Death Cases
Established law firm represents families in the Salinas area who’ve lost a loved one
The unexpected loss of a family member is even more tragic when their death is caused by someone else’s reckless or deliberately malicious behavior. At Law Office of Bruce Julian Kitchin, I work to help survivors in California cope with their new circumstances. In settlement negotiations and at trial, I advocate for my clients to receive compensation that allows them to settle their loved one's affairs and find a measure of justice for their wrongful death.
Respected California lawyer pursues justice for victims of negligence or violence
A representative of a deceased person's estate may have a valid basis for a wrongful death lawsuit if the death was a direct result of another person's or organization's negligent or intentional actions. My law firm may represent you and your family if you lost a loved one due to any of the following causes:
- Auto accident
- Truck accident
- Slip and fall
- Traumatic brain injury
- Motorcycle accident
- Defective product
- Lack of proper security
- Mesothelioma
- Medical malpractice
- Birth injury
- Nursing home abuse and neglect
- Aviation accident
- Assault
- Murder
My thorough understanding of California wrongful death laws enables me to skillfully handle all legal aspects of your case and to seek the remedy you deserve. Those laws set a time limit to pursue a wrongful death claim, so it is essential you seek the legal help you need as early as possible.
Caring counselor seeks compensation for grieving families
I understand the profound impacts of the loss of a loved one, which is why I devote substantial resources to every wrongful death case I take. The damages awarded in a wrongful death lawsuit depend on a variety of factors, including the severity of the accident and the individual's suffering prior to passing. I will strive to help clients receive compensation for:
- Medical costs
- Funeral expenses
- Mental anguish
- Loss of future earnings
- Loss of love, affection and companionship
- Loss of protection and guidance
- Benefits lost due to the victim’s death, including medical insurance
I employ private investigators and work with expert witnesses to ensure that your case is as strong as possible. I may also collect and preserve evidence from the accident scene and obtain testimony from people with first-person knowledge of your loved one's passing. I will explore all options before focusing in on a tailored legal strategy to help you receive the maximum compensation possible.
