• Wrongful Death
  If any eligible survivors have not claimed their entitlements, they are missing substantial funds, especially for cancers that make up a large share of the payouts. Various illnesses have different compensation amounts; for example, asthma brings $20,000, while different types of cancer may command up to $250,000. Wrongful death cases are the most highly compensated, with the surviving spouse receiving $250,000 plus lost wages and each dependent child receiving $100,000. Barasch estimates the average wrongful death payment to be around $500,000.
• Traffic Violations
• Sex Crimes
  When an employee feels at risk at work, they may be eligible to pursue a workplace assault lawsuit. A creditable threat of physical violence, verbal harassment, or sexual assault should be immediately reported to a supervisor or human resources professional. If that report is not resolved, the employee who is being assaulted has the right to file a workplace assault lawsuit for negligence in civil court. Work-related lawsuit lawyers are familiar with tactics that employers use to suppress employee lawsuits. At Parker Waichman LLP, we are prepared to handle your workplace lawsuit.
• Fraud
  Consumer fraud lawsuits involve unfair and deceptive tactics used by businesses and other entities to gain financially at the expense of consumers, including bait-and-switch tactics, charging for services that were not provided, false or misleading advertising, and unfair pricing.
• Robbery
  When people think about workplace violence, they often picture a current or former employee who suddenly snaps and brings a weapon to work. In reality, these kinds of episodes make up only a fraction of the violence perpetrated in the workplace. A large portion of workplace violence involves a third party, unconnected to the business and the victim, who comes in with the intent of committing a robbery or other crime.
