Workplace Fatality
Some of the more common accidents that can result in a tragic death include:
- Slip and fall accidents, especially from roofs or other tall areas
- Electric shock injury
- Commercial truck accidents
- Construction site fatalities
Regardless of the circumstances surrounding the death at the workplace, the results can be traumatic for everyone involved, especially for the family of the victim. You will most likely suffer from emotional pain as well as financial loss while you find the strength to move forward. We can help ensure you are compensated for the following:
- Any funeral and burial costs
- Loss of protected income
- Loss of protected inheritance for any children
- Emotional suffering
- Financial costs for medication, therapy and other recovering methods
Who is to Blame?
Workplace injury lawsuits are complicated to say the least because worker’s compensation often protects the company from being sued if a death has occurred. However, there are many instances where a third party may be to blame for the accident:
- Defective product cases – if someone is killed due to a faulty product, then the manufacturer of the equipment or product can be held responsible for the accident
- Premise liability cases – if an employee is killed due to the unsafe conditions on a third party property, then the owner of that property may be held responsible for the accident
- Commercial truck accidents – if an employee is killed on the road in a vehicle accident, then the driver of the other vehicle may be responsible for the accident if he/she was driving negligently, drinking and driving, recklessly driving or speeding
