Don't Let the Insurance Company Deny Your Claim!

Death benefits are payable to surviving family members of a deceased employee, including the spouse, children, or other dependents. As with workers’ compensation settlements for injuries, they are paid through the employer's insurance company. Unfortunately, the insurance company may attempt to deny, reduce, or modify claims, making the legal services of an experienced lawyer crucial for obtaining the maximum amount that you are entitled to.
