Southern California Wrongful Death Lawyer

Pursuing a wrongful death action can be the only way to obtain justice after the loss of a loved one. For many of our Riverside clients, their primary goal in a lawsuit is to hold responsible parties accountable for their negligence, wrongful actions, or recklessness.

The law offices of Brent A. Duque offers intelligent legal guidance and experienced representation to clients who have lost a family member due to another’s negligence or wrongful acts. We are sensitive to the fact that you have suffered an incredible loss, and are committed to helping you navigate through the difficult legal process that often accompanies a wrongful death action. We talk to our clients a minimum of once every 2 weeks during the duration of their case and are easily available to you through telephone, text, and/or email until your case is brought to resolution.
