Before you pursue damages for the loss of a loved one, you need to know who is eligible to file a wrongful death lawsuit in California.
The following parties can file a suit in the state of CA:
If the deceased person was married at the time of their death, their registered domestic partner or spouse will have the primary right to file.
If there is no spouse, the deceased party’s surviving child can file a lawsuit. This includes adopted children and stepchildren.
A minor who lived with the deceased party may have a right to file a lawsuit. However, the minor must have resided in the home for a minimum of six months.
If the surviving parents can provide proof that they were financially dependent on the deceased party, they may have a right to file a lawsuit.
If there is no spouse, children, dependent minors, or parents, an individual who is entitled to inherit from the deceased party’s estate may have a right to file a lawsuit.
If none of the relatives entitled to the deceased party’s property is available, the next of kin may be eligible to file a lawsuit.
A personal representative of the deceased party’s estate can be elected to file a single action on behalf of all parties in interest, to simplify the process.
