Client Testimonials
“If you need a good attorney who is not only gonna fight for you but also has an heart, then you definitely need Anthony in your corner. Anthony Liberatore and every single person in his office, treat you as a human being not just a number.
I had the bad fortune of having two accidents within 12 years of each other. Both, I got injured pretty badly.
Both times Anthony fought for me and was able to negotiate with the Car Insurances to get a decent settlement for the harm that was caused to me.
I hope I never get injured again, but if I ever do, Anthony will be the first person I call.”

What Is a Wrongful Death Claim?
A wrongful death in California occurs when one person dies because of the wrongful act of another person. A wrongful act can refer to neglect or negligence, meaning the failure to act with ordinary care. It can also refer to recklessness or a wanton disregard for the safety of others. Finally, a wrongful death can be caused by intentional or malicious acts of wrongdoing (torts), including crimes such as assault, battery and homicide.

Who Can File a Wrongful Death Claim in Los Angeles?
Only certain individuals can file a wrongful death claim with the civil courts. In California, the law restricts the right to file a wrongful death lawsuit to the following parties:
- The deceased person’s (decedent’s) surviving spouse or domestic partner
- The decedent’s surviving child or children
- The children of any deceased child of the decedent
The legal right to inherit from a decedent goes to anyone entitled to the deceased person’s property through the laws of intestate succession.
Statute of Limitations on a Los Angeles Wrongful Death Claim
The statute of limitations, or deadline for filing, a wrongful death claim in California is no more than two years from the date of the decedent’s death. In general, if a case is not filed within two years, the family will lose the right to pursue financial compensation. If a case involves criminal charges against the same defendant, however, the civil statute of limitations may be tolled (paused) until the criminal case is complete.
