BIREN | KATZMAN is pleased to announce that firm founder Matthew B.F. Biren has been recognized by his peers as a Southern California Super Lawyer 2006-2012. Losing a loved one is never easy, and it can be particularly difficult in the case of a sudden, accidental death. In our California wrongful death law practice, attorneys at BIREN|KATZMAN share in our clients' sense of loss. Beyond offering sympathy, however, we help individuals and families determine if someone's negligence or wrongful conduct caused the death of their loved one and, if so, recover maximum compensation for the tragic loss of life.
We understand that families who have lost a provider will suffer significant financial losses and that their suffering will be heightened by financial difficulties if these losses are not compensated. Moreover, the out-of-pocket monetary losses pale in comparison to the loss of love, companionship and society that the family will suffer. While wrongful death claims and lawsuits cannot make up for the loss of a loved one, they can provide justice to the surviving family members in the form of monetary compensation that can ease the family's lives during their time of grief.
