Wrongful Death

The Workers’ Compensation attorneys at White & Stradley, PLLC have been helping injured North Carolinians collect the Workers’ Compensation benefits they and their families deserve for many years now. We have handled cases involving:

• Construction accidents
• Trucking-related accidents
• Warehouse/factory accidents
• Loading/unloading injuries

With these clients, we have seen these types of injuries:

• Nerve injuries
• Hand injuries
• Neck/back injuries
• Shoulder injuries
• Paralysis
• Amputation
• Electric shock injuries

However, sadly, we also deal with cases where a Worker was killed while working. Wrongful death is a part of Workers’ Compensation and is an essential aspect of the package of benefits. Wrongful death law provides money to cover the funeral expenses as well as survivor compensation in the event the Worker’s death is caused by his injuries suffered while working. Not only is the loss of the Worker devastating emotionally to the surviving family members, the financial trauma is terrible, also.

Wrongful death law provides compensation for the following:

• Funeral costs
• Widow/widower benefits
• Surviving legal dependents

Now, within these benefits, there are even more specifics that your Workers’ Compensation/Wrongful Death attorney will explain to you at the time your case is reviewed.

Although the amount of benefits varies, a surviving spouse and dependent children may be entitled to only a fraction of what was earned by the decedent.

For more information, see Workers' Compensation: Wrongful Death Questions.

If your loved one died while working, you may be entitled to receive wrongful death Workers’ Compensation benefits. Please contact North Carolina Workers’ Compensation attorneys White & Stradley, PLLC today to schedule your confidential consultation.
