Losing a loved one is one of the most difficult things that we are forced to endure. Losing a loved one to a work injury adds to the emotional toll of the loss. Unfortunately, workplace deaths happen due to unsafe environments, personnel error, and negligent behavior. Our office understands and respects how devastating it is to lose a loved one on the job, and we are very experienced in securing workers compensation death benefits for the victims’ survivors.
What we take into consideration whether a workplace death was caused by the employer’s serious and willful misconduct
After handling thousands of work injury cases, Steve & Sean have seen many catastrophic injuries leading to death caused by the serious and willful misconduct of an employer. In these cases, there can be an enhanced workers compensation recovery for the victim and/or their families, which can result in a substantial addition to the other benefits available. Reporting the accident to Cal Osha RIGHT AWAY is critical in making this determination.
Do not face the loss of a loved one from a work accident alone. Steve & Sean have represented many families in such times of need.
