Workers Compensation Law

Do you have a work-related or job-related injury claim?

In California, you are entitled to benefits, including medical treatment, temporary disability, permanent disability, and future medical care. A worker's compensation claim may be only part of what an injured employee is legally entitled to receive. We work hard to find creative ways to assure our clients are fully and fairly compensated for their injuries. We help people obtain workers compensation benefits without upfront attorney fees. Any industrial, construction, or other work-related injury that occurs while a worker is on the job should be handled by a workers compensation specialist so that you receive all the benefits to which you are entitled. Generally you can not sue your employer for negligence, but there may be a third party that you can pursue such as the maker of faulty machinery or the property owner.

Work related injuries can be the result of:

Accidents (e.g. falling off a ladder or an auto accident while on the job)

Repetitive trauma (e.g. typing that leads to carpal tunnel syndrome)

Occupational hazard exposure (e.g. inhaling toxic chemicals on the jobsite)

All employees have the right to claim workers compensation benefits when injured on the job. If you are injured at work, you should immediately seek medical treatment and advise your doctor and employer that you were injured on the job. You should contact an attorney to make sure your rights are protected as you recover from your injury. We also represent families whose loved ones may have been killed in a work related accident.
