Workers Compensation
Our workers' compensation practice focuses on helping injured employees obtain rightful benefits for workplace injuries. We handle cases involving back injuries, repetitive motion disorders, construction accidents, and occupational illnesses. Our attorneys navigate California's complex workers' comp system to ensure clients receive medical treatment coverage, wage replacement, and disability benefits. We challenge insurance company denials and represent clients at all stages of the claims process, from initial filing to appeals and hearings.
Employment Law
We specialize in employment law matters including wage violations, meal and rest break disputes, and employee misclassification. Our team helps workers who have been improperly classified as independent contractors recover unpaid overtime, denied benefits, and other compensation. We handle cases involving wrongful termination, workplace discrimination, and retaliation claims, ensuring employers comply with state and federal labor laws.
Overtime Claims
Our overtime claim specialists help workers recover unpaid wages for hours worked beyond standard limits. We handle cases involving 1099 misclassification, off-the-clock work, and denied premium pay. Our attorneys calculate owed compensation, file wage claims with labor authorities, and pursue legal action against employers who violate California's strict overtime regulations requiring 1.5x regular pay for hours over 8/day or 40/week.
Injury Representation
We represent clients with workplace injuries ranging from construction site accidents to repetitive stress injuries. Our services include proving work-related causation, securing medical treatment, and negotiating settlements for permanent disabilities. We handle complex cases involving railroad injuries under FELA, toxic chemical exposure, and catastrophic injuries requiring long-term care, ensuring clients receive comprehensive compensation packages.
Legal Consultation
Our free initial consultations assess the merits of potential workers' compensation and employment law cases. During these sessions, attorneys review employment records, injury documentation, and wage statements to determine misclassification status or benefits eligibility. We explain clients' rights under California labor laws and outline strategic approaches for maximizing compensation through negotiated settlements or litigation.

Questions
What should I do immediately after a workplace injury?
Seek medical attention, report the injury to your employer within 30 days, and contact our attorneys to protect your rights during the claims process.
How are workers' compensation benefits calculated?
Benefits depend on injury severity, medical costs, and lost wages. Our attorneys analyze your case to determine the full value of your entitled compensation.
Can I sue my employer instead of filing a workers' comp claim?
In most cases, workers' comp is the exclusive remedy, but exceptions exist for intentional harm or third-party negligence. We'll evaluate your specific circumstances.
What if my workers' comp claim gets denied?
We'll help you appeal the decision, gather additional evidence, and represent you at hearings to challenge unjust denials of medical treatment or disability benefits.
How much does legal representation cost?
We work on contingency - you pay nothing unless we win your case, ensuring access to quality legal representation regardless of financial situation.
What qualifies as a work-related injury?
Injuries occurring during job duties, including repetitive motion injuries, occupational illnesses, and accidents during work-related travel qualify for compensation.
