Helping the Families of Workers Killed on the Job
If you have lost a loved one in a workplace accident, we at Barkan & Barkan Co., L.P.A., offer our deepest condolences. While nothing will ever compensate you for your loss, your family may need financial assistance after losing the person who provided you with support. Under Ohio law, that help is available.
Our workers' compensation attorneys are experienced at pursuing claims for workplace accident fatalities on behalf of the spouses and children of workers who have been killed on the job. Contact us to schedule a free consultation at our offices in Columbus. You will pay no fees unless and until you get compensated.
Pursuing the Maximum Available Compensation
The workers' compensation death claim procedure provides allowances for the spouses and children of workers who have been killed in workplace accidents. Children are entitled to payments until they turn 18, and spouses are entitled to payments for life unless they remarry.
Our workers' compensation lawyers are experienced at pursuing claims under this unique procedure, seeking the maximum compensation to which our clients are entitled.
While workers' compensation death claim benefits are available regardless of who was at fault for the fatal accident, we can also explore whether you have a valid wrongful death claim against someone other than your loved one's employer whose negligence may have contributed to his or her death.
Helping Clients Across State and National Boundaries
With the flexible nature of work in today's economy, employers based in Ohio frequently hire employees who are also based in Ohio to do work in other states. Also, many people who work in Ohio have spouses or children who live in other states and even other countries.
We are experienced at working across state lines and international boundaries to pursue the available benefits and get the payments made to the people who deserve them, no matter where they are located. Contact us to discuss your potential claim for workplace accident fatality compensation.
