After a Workplace Wrongful Death
Workers’ compensation death benefits are available to a spouse, children, and potentially other parties related to the deceased worker. When we handle these cases, we thoroughly review the circumstances to determine who is entitled to benefits.
Family members may be entitled to funeral expenses. Wage benefits may also be available. These benefits will be paid out weekly for a certain number of years and based on the deceased’s income. We recognize that these benefits can be crucial to families, particularly when the deceased is the breadwinner. Our goal is to maximize benefits so that families do not suffer financially because of their loss.
