Florida Fatal Workplace Injury Lawyer

Under Florida’s Workers’ Compensation Law, death benefits are payable to an employee’s surviving spouse, or spouse and children, based upon a percentage of the employee’s wages, subject to a cap. A burial allowance is also available. If you are a qualified dependent of a Worker’s Comp related death you will benefit from advice from a Qualified WC lawyer. It is critical that the insurance company determines the proper payments and calculates the qualifying period correctly to ensure you receive all the compensation you are allowed. Call Kevin Moore, your Florida fatal workplace injury lawyer or contact the firm for a free and full evaluation of your case.

Compensation For Deaths

If a work-related accident results in the death of an employee, there are valuable benefits that a qualified dependent is eligible for by the insurance company that our Tampa, FL attorney can help you pursue. For example, the employer/insurance carrier is obligated to pay actual funeral expenses not to exceed $7,500.00. Further, the employer/insurance carrier shall pay the deceased employee’s dependents up to two-third of the deceased employee’s average weekly wage depending on the type of dependent (spouse, child, parent, etc.). In addition, the carrier would be responsible for payment of school expenses of the surviving spouse. The maximum the employer/insurance carrier has to pay to the family for the death of an employee is $150,000.00.
