San Diego County funeral assistance
We help San Diego County families find providers, judge whether a quote is fair, and get final expenses paid by the people responsible.
What we do for San Diego County families
We help you locate and work with mortuary, funeral, cremation and burial providers in San Diego County, and we help you make final arrangement decisions without being rushed into them.
We pursue every source of immediate payment, life insurance, accidental death coverage, employer benefits, and where applicable the wrongful death claim itself, so providers are paid promptly and the family is not left carrying the cost.
Getting the expenses paid by whoever caused this
Funeral, burial and cremation expenses are recoverable in a California wrongful death claim. On your behalf we make a formal written demand on the responsible parties and their insurers that these expenses be paid immediately, rather than folded into a settlement years away.
Carriers do not always agree. But the demand is documented, it starts the clock on their conduct, and in a case with clear liability it frequently works.
On pricing
Prices for the same services vary widely, including within San Diego. Under the federal Funeral Rule you are entitled to an itemized general price list, and you are entitled to decline packages and buy only what you want. We will tell you plainly whether what you have been quoted looks reasonable.
