Wrongful Death

Nothing can bring back a loved one who has passed away. Dealing with the sudden loss of a loved one is a long, all-consuming and painful process. And while no amount of money will ever compensate the loss, holding the responsible party accountable and attaining financial security can provide some comfort through a tremendously difficult time.

When a person dies due to the negligence, recklessness or other misconduct of another, surviving family members – including parents and spouses — may file a wrongful death suit. Wrongful death suits may arise from various circumstances, including automobile or aviation crashes, occupational hazards, medical malpractice, defective products including pharmaceuticals or medical devices, or even intentional criminal behavior. Wrongful deaths can warrant significant financial compensation to cover a broad range of costs – including medical and funeral expenses – as well as emotional needs.

Litigating a wrongful death case is a complex process which requires significant resources, investigative techniques and considerable expertise. Our attorneys have handled and successfully tried multiple wrongful death cases and know that they can be very emotional and difficult for the surviving family members. We can support you during this difficult time, build a strong case against those at fault, and allow you to focus on your family and mental health. If you believe you have a wrongful death case, please contact us today – we will fight for justice on your behalf.

Wildfire Litigation

We are experienced wildfire litigators that have recovered tens of millions of dollars for our clients affected by fires across California. Dave Fox has been appointed to the Plaintiffs’ Executive Committee for the Thomas Fire Litigation by the Los Angeles Superior Court and also appointed by the San Francisco Superior Court to lead the 2017 North Bay Fire Litigation as a member of the Plaintiffs’ Steering Committee. He was also appointed by the Sacramento Superior Court to lead the 2015 Butte Fire Litigation as a member of the Plaintiffs’ Executive Committee.

Because of his significant trial experience, in 2015 Dave was brought in by another law firm to try the first preference plaintiff’s case in the Powerhouse Fire litigation in Los Angeles, leading to a $103 million recovery for all plaintiffs. Courtney Vasquez, Joanna Simon and Chris Hendricks have also facilitated millions of dollars in recoveries for wildfire survivors. In conjunction with our partners in Wildfire Legal Group, our attorneys currently represent over 1,000 individuals and businesses that were affected by the North Bay Fires in Northern California and the Thomas Fire in Ventura and Santa Barbara Counties.

Wildfires are a major threat to those who those who live in warm and dry climates, especially in California. Each year, fires across the country cause billions of dollars in property damage. This kind of catastrophic damage often occurs due to a utility company’s negligence.

Even if you have insurance, you will almost certainly find that you will not be reimbursed for the total cost to rebuild, the total cost for your damaged trees, crops, farms and vegetation, the hours you have spent to restore and tend to fire related issues, cherished family possessions, any personal injuries, and the annoyance and discomfort you have gone through. These damages can be pursued through legal action.

Aviation Litigation

Our attorneys are experienced aviation litigators who understand the specific technical issues surrounding aviation regulations and catastrophic incidents. A complex plane or helicopter crash case requires a lawyer with a deep understanding of the Federal Aviation Regulations (FARs), the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) investigative process, and the state, federal, and international laws applicable to such incidents. We have this experience.

Our attorneys have successfully represented clients in aviation wrongful death and personal injury trials, as well as in enforcement actions before the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). We are readily familiar with NTSB investigations and have guided clients through that process. Our aviation matters have involved a wide variety of aircraft – from small, single-engine props such as the Cessna 208B, to helicopters like the MD500, to major passenger jets like the Bombardier Q400, Airbus 330 and the Boeing 737.

Our attorneys have also successfully resolved numerous aviation cases short of trial through advantageous settlements. We appreciate that each client is different, and take a thoughtful, client-specific approach to each case.  We work hand-in-hand with the best aviation regulatory, accident investigation, accident reconstruction and economist experts to present a thoughtful and aggressive case for our clients.

Notable matters include:

• Represented a client in serial litigation arising out of crashes involving the Cessna Caravan 208B, including multiple favorable verdicts after trial.
• Successfully negotiated a favorable settlement in a case involving a Pratt and Whitney Canada engine explosion during flight onboard a Bombardier Q400.
• Obtained favorable resolutions for clients arising out of the Air France Flight 447 disaster, which resulted in the death of 228 passengers, aircrew and cabin crew aboard the aircraft.
