On-the-job accidents kill thousands of people every year, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, and pursuing financial compensation for medical expenses, funeral and burial costs, and other damages in these circumstances can be extremely challenging without a knowledgeable attorney by your side. Work-related accident deaths can stem from a number of causes, including:
– Slip-and-fall accidents
– Heavy machinery accidents
– Motor vehicle crashes
– Hazardous material exposure
– Fire or chemical burns
Wrongful death cases related to workplace injuries can be complicated because of the multiple layers of insurance agencies, as well as laws related to workers’ compensation. These cases may also involve a negligent third party.

A hematoma is a swelling of collected blood that has leaked outside of a blood vessel, artery, vein or capillary due to damage. When it comes to brain injury hematomas, they are generally categorized as epidural (also known as extradural, in which the hematoma occurs between the membrane known as the dura mater and the skull) or subdural (also known as acute, in which the hematoma occurs between the brain and the dura mater)
.Brain hematomas can be life-threatening, and they are a relatively common byproduct of high-impact motor vehicle collisions and falls. Even when victims survive, they face a long road to recovery, and many will have to live with permanent impairments. If you or a family member sustained a brain injury due to the negligence of another, please contact the Kiley Law Group today for a free consultation.
