- Wrongful DeathWrongful death was a claim started under the common law where a person or entity could be held liable for a death. The claim is a civil action, usually brought by a spouse or children of a dead person which alleges that a victim died due to negligence on the part of the defendant. Surviving dependents or beneficiaries of the decedent can be entitled to monetary compensation for damages caused due to the death of the victim. Wrongful death can arise from a number of circumstances, including automobile or airplane accidents, occupational accidents or exposure to hazardous substances; criminal behavior; and other instances by a third party.

- Workers CompensationUnlike workers compensation laws, FELA compensates injured workers for all of an injured worker’s damages. This includes lost wages, medical bills, pain and suffering, inconvenience, disfigurement, and costs of future care. That’s important for you to know because claims agents dealing directly with unrepresented railroaders frequently refuse to consider all of the damages that a worker is entitled to receive. They are professionals who are paid to reduce the railroad’s responsibility to injured workers. An experienced lawyer can make certain that you are fully compensated for your injuries and financial damages.
