Question:
Who can bring a wrongful death claim forward in Orange County?
Answer:
In California, normally, the person who can bring the wrongful death action is an heir. If it was the parent who died, then the children of the parent could bring forth the claim. If it was the wife who died, the husband, and then sometimes the children, could also bring a claim, but it’s the rightful heir. It can’t be just a friend. It has to be a family member.
