Workers' compensation could be one option for pursuing damages after a workplace incident. Demonstrating the liability of the company can be difficult, however. This is especially true if the worker did not die while physically on or in company property. Your workers' compensation lawyer can perform an independent investigation to provide cause, but this can take time.
Understanding workers' compensation benefits takes time, effort, and legal knowledge. The compensation that results from a workers' compensation claim can also differ from the awards granted in a wrongful death claim. Our firm understands the differences between workers' compensation and other legal actions. We can help you determine the best legal path forward.
