Let us put our experience, knowledge, and compassion to work for your unique circumstances. We can help both with pursuing fatal claim death benefits under Pennsylvania workers’ compensation, and also with any probate, estate planning, or inheritance tax issues which may arise.

Benefits For Surviving Family Members

If you are the spouse, or dependent of someone who died because of a work-related injury, or illness, you are entitled to receive compensation for:

  • Any related medical expenses your loved one may have incurred before death
  • The costs of a funeral up to $3,000.00
  • A percentage of the workers’ compensation wage loss benefit your loved one would have been entitled to receive (a spouse can receive these benefits for life, or until he, or she enters into another relationship; also note that the amount of this benefit varies according to the number of dependent children)

If the workers’ compensation insurance provider refuses to pay what you are seeking in a fatal claim (as they often do) — rest assured that our lawyers will be ready, willing, and able to go to battle for you in court. Our attorneys Levi S. Wolf, and Daniel E. McCabe are certified as a specialists in the practice of workers’ compensation law by the Pennsylvania Bar Association’s section on Workers’ Compensation Law as authorized by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court.

Fatal Accidents, And Third-Party Personal Injury Claims

Our law firm has handled multiple fatal claims associated with workplace accidents, and can help you seek full, and fair compensation.
