Joanne has been taking care of my step dads workers compensation case and we have not been able to get ahold of her since MARCH when he was told he won his case and all he had to do is wait for his settlement. I have called endless times, left endless voicemails and have gotten no response. My step dad has terminal cancer so this whole situation left a bad taste in our mouth… especially with it being known his short life expectancy and her being non urgent about getting the settlement distributed. I honestly wouldnt be as frustrated if I could at least get ahold of her, but instead I get bounced to her voicemail and secretary.

I initially chose this law firm based on its prominence in my search, leading me to enlist their services for my workers' comp case. In the early stages, their responsiveness and attention to my questions were commendable. However, a notable change occurred after I signed the retainer agreement. Following this, my attempts to contact them through calls or emails remained unanswered. During the first two weeks, they solely submitted the medical report I provided to my insurance company and appointed a treating physician for my case, with no paperwork filed with the court.

Joanne is the Bay Area's best workers compensation lawyer. After handling my own case when I came to the end of my abilities to manage and negotiate the matter, my physician recommended this law firm. I am so happy I was able to retain Joanne. She is dedicated to helping the client! She made sure I had the best physicians and treatments available to me. She fought hard for me for every benefit and resolved the matter very successfully. I am very happy with her results. I would recommend Joanne to anyone who has a workers injury.

I would highly recommend Joanne as an attorney. She is one of the best qualified and outstanding workers compensation attorneys in the area. She goes above and beyond to help her clients and takes on the challenges no matter how complex.
I can only say she is an excellent choice when you are looking for representation. She has handled two of my cases and the work was outstanding. I would be more than happy to recommend her to anyone who is in need of an attorney.

Joanne Helvig is the most dedicated lawyer to their client that I can say. I hired Joanne more than three years ago. She treated my case with great integrity, consistance, persistance and care. Joanne simply is the best!

Joanne handled my case with a passion and an attention to detail that built an instant trust in knowing I had the ideal representative. She is very straight forward & direct. Being an injured worker, I did not know my rights. She was able to convey to me the process that we had to go through to get to our goal which was respectful treatment & regaining control of my life after experiencing a catastrophic accident at work. Joanne was excellent at mapping out a defense that gave me the feeling that I was actually ahead and waiting for the next negligent trick perpetrated by the opposition. When we talked on the phone, she gave me the feeling that my case was just as important to her as it was for me. Throughout the entire process (6year case) she was always available even just to update me and to hang in there. Because of Joanne, I now have control of my life. In my opinion there is none better

Mrs Joanne Helvig is well deserving of the title Phenomenal. I retained her service to represent me with my lengthy and complicated Workers' Compensation case. At no time did she ever give up on me even though challenges arose. After 7 years, she brought my stressful case to a positive closure. Mrs. Helvig kept me informed and handle the case with such, stealth and confidence. One of the best things about her, is she genuinely advocates for the injured workers. I was not just another one of her clients, she showed great interest in me getting the best treatments and helping get my life back on track. I don't know if it's appropriate to say this, but I love and appreciate ALL of Mrs. Joanne Helvig's hard work and I'm truly grateful that she was the one I chose to help me get through one of the most difficult times of my life. She's the BEST!
