Tim Picton, 36, was allegedly knocked unconscious by a stranger in Northbridge and hit his head on the pavement along James Street in the early hours of December 27.
He hit his head on the pavement and was rushed to Royal Perth Hospital.
After being in an induced coma the father of a four-year-old, Charlotte, has now died.
Picton was a former Labor state secretary and campaign director from 2020 to 2022.
He most recently worked as a director at mining giant MinRes, but previously also served as a director and principal adviser for the Victorian Premier's office.
He's also the brother of South Australia's Health Minister Chris Picton.
"His kindness, generosity and humour brought joy to our lives," his family said in a statement.
"We have been deeply moved by the outpouring of love and respect from friends and colleagues across Australia," the statement continues.
"We will be forever proud of Tim's many extraordinary achievements and capacity for love, while knowing that he still had so much to give.
"Above all, Tim was an adoring father to four-year-old Charlotte, the love of his life.
"It breaks our hearts to know that Charlotte will grow up without her father by her side, but she will always know how deeply he loved her."
