Daniel O'Neill has helped families through the difficult challenges of serious and fatal accident litigation since 1980. Named Trial Lawyer of the Year three times by the Central California Trial Lawyers Association, he combines highly developed claim evaluation and courtroom skills with a wholehearted commitment to the best interests of his clients.

In wrongful death litigation, this combination can be especially powerful. Because an important element of your demand for damages will be the loss of the comfort and society that the victim provided to you and your family, we work closely with you to develop a specific and detailed understanding of just what that loss means to you in practical and emotional terms. Then we communicate that understanding to those who will decide what your compensation should be — first the insurance negotiators, and when necessary, a trial jury.

We won't pretend that wrongful death litigation is easy. At the same time, we do everything possible to reduce the burdens of the lawsuit on you and your family while you're going through a hard transition.

We handle fatal accident claims related to car accidents, commercial vehicle accidents, medical malpractice, homicide or any other negligent or intentional cause.
