Variety Magazine reported that on February 6, 2024, Juan ‘Spike’ Osorio, a crew member working on the set of Wonder Man, died after an accident at the Radford Studio Center in Studio City, CA. Spike, who was working as a rigger, fell from the rafters due to a potential structural failure. The Law Offices of John J. Perlstein sends its heartfelt condolences to Spike’s friends and family members during this difficult time.
Friends of Juan Osorio set up a GoFundMe that has already raised $156,000. The money could help cover legal fees for his recently widowed wife, Joanne as Osorio’s GoFundMe page states “but expect a long road fraught with attorney fees and expenses.” In addition to the emotional toll of grieving a lost husband and son, the family could potentially bring a wrongful death action based on potential premises liability.
Workplace deaths involving negligence could be filed as wrongful death claims and happen more often than they should. It is recommended to speak with a Los Angeles wrongful death attorney if you or your family has been affected by workplace negligence.
