Workplace deaths
Workers’ compensation often limits what a family can recover from the employer. But other companies on the job, like a contractor, an equipment maker or a property owner, can still be held responsible. We look for every one of them.
What we look into
- OSHA reports and safety citations
- Equipment design, maintenance and recalls
- Contracts between the companies on the site
- Training and safety records
Questions families ask
Can we sue the employer?
Usually workers’ compensation is the path for the employer. Other companies on the site can still face a wrongful death claim.
