I am a nurse who was injured on the job. My injury caused systemic and permanent damages that are catastrophic and have left me 100% permanently disabled. I am unable to return to the workforce in any capacity or even live my former normal life. Every day (& night) is a struggle for me. I became a nurse to help people and to provide for my family and here I am, not being able to do either, or even help myself.
I have never been involved in a worker's compensation claim prior to this injury and I knew nothing about worker's compensation law. After my injury, I did not hire an attorney for some time. As my symptoms worsened, the insurance company began denying vital doctor prescribed treatments. Eventually I retained an attorney who seemed knowledgeable but was not progressing my case adequately.
I was referred to Bentley & More LLP. Dane Gilliam, Esq. and Jose Gonzalez, Esq. took over my case. My case is complicated and involves various specialists, treatments, and medical expert opinions. Dane and Jose aggressively handled all of my legal matters including winning at appeals and trial. My questions were always answered promptly and thoroughly. I truly appreciate the timely communication and extra ongoing efforts that Dane took to explain matters to me.
It is very important to retain an attorney that is knowledgeable and experienced in worker's compensation, who makes the effort to have open and honest, timely and understandable communication with their client, and who can produce results so that the client can deal with their injuries. Dane and Jose are all of that and more. If you are involved in a workplace injury, don't wait to retain an attorney and choose your attorney wisely. I strongly recommend calling Bentley & More LLP.
Dane and Jose, thank you for your representation. You have been a blessing to me and to my family.

If you have a potential injury case, I highly recommend giving the office of Bentley and More a call .They have always been reliable, honest, responsive and caring of my situation. They handle every thing from the insurance claim to the back and forth of dealing with them. I never had to worry about pestering phone calls or retelling my case to the insurance a million times. My attorney Dane Gilliam was always there if I needed him and would promptly respond to calls, texts, and emails. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone!

Mr. Alves responded to Evvo questions I have inquired about WC case. Thru Evvo posting, I was able to email him and ask if I can send him WC case documents and concurrent DFEH related labor law cases.
I posted my email address so that he can contact me back via email. I sent inordinate amout of case documents via email and also thru Google drop down share drive he was kind to sent to me.
He spent reviewing all those documents over both days of Saturday and Sunday weekend and got back to me via email on Sunday afternoon that he will be taking my labor law case. I asked him to place on hold reviewin WC case for now.
He was very understanding of my urgency needs and was willing to take his valuable weekend rest time in reviewing my cases over the weekend. He was also kind to let me know ahead he will be calling me for contract paperwork Monday next day.
Very prompt, efficient, effective, thorough, responsive, professional, insightful of knowing my needs. Also very supportive and friendly. Thank you so much thus far.
Sincerely from bottom of my heart.

I hired Henry Khalili, as my workers comp attorney. He walked me through every step and explained the process. Mr. Khalili, made sure I understood everything, no question was ever a silly question to him. At trial he stood by me, and would always make sure I understood the process of the trial.. Most attorneys send an assistant, but Mr. Khalili was always there. I
would highly recommend him.

Henry was referred to me by another attorney in after contacting his office in speaking with EDith I made an appointment to meet with Henry. After meeting with him he was on my side and he made it his goal and assured me that the way my employer treated me after my injury was wrong and he will try to make it right. And he did. There is no way I would have done it with out him. THANK YOU HENRY AND EDITH. I love the way he would take his time to explain things and I just never have experienced such great service. He really cares about his clients. At least that was my impression and I just couldn’t be more great full. I would recommend his law firm to everyone. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

I got injured on the job. I found George through a recommendation from a close friend. He immediately showed concern for my well- being. He gave me a comprehensive run through of how the process would work and the timeframe that we would be looking at. At every step of the process, I had complete confidence in George. That allowed me to have comfortability when recovering. In the end, we won the case, but I also won a relationship with a very good lawyer and person. Thank you George!

When I got into a car accident, my health insurance required me to consult with a lawyer to ensure that financial responsibility was assigned fairly so I could receive accurate compensation for my medical bills. George bridged the communication between the police and the insurance company with ease, putting my fears to rest and allowing the process with my insurance to continue smoothly. I was grateful for George’s patient, self-assured handling of my case that reassured me of his personal drive toward excellence in his work.

When I was hurt at work, I did not know what to do. Ms. Joe was recommended to me by another lawyer in the Los Angeles area. Throughout my case, I found her to be trustworthy and professional. She helped me understand the workers' compensation system, my options and helped me navigate the system. I believe it was through her proactive and aggressive approach, that I was awarded such a large settlement. Ms. Joe negotiated an amazing settlement that was 10 times more than what was first offered to me by the insurance company. I am grateful for Ms. Joe's help. So glad I found her.

I needed advice regarding a situation my son found himself in. We had a lawyer helping with a diiferent kind of case. Hecwas able to reach Mr Wood who called me immediately. We played phone tag due to schedules but he didnt give up on me. When we finally did talk I was very comfortable and he took time to listen and gave me the dacts as he knew it. Straight forward and kind. We arent at a point where we can hire him right now but everything he told was indeed fact. He helped us more in one phone call than the Public defender did at all. I would highly recommend him and I know he comes highly recommended. Thank you

I'm a busy real estate broker in Los Angeles, CA. On numerous occasions I contacted the Law Offices of Ashouri Derakhshan to help me with various matters...whether it being corporate, real estate transactions or simply being treated poorly by Home Depot.
At all times they were diligent on answering all my questions, or simply making the problem go away with complete ease to me. I would like to brag that I was treated special, but I have a strong feeling that anyone that comes through their office get this utmost treatment.
I unequivocally recommend the Law Offices of Ashouri Derakhshan & Associates services in handling any of your legal matters. THEY ROCK!

My story started with a personal injury case where I called several different lawyers who wouldn't return my calls. I ended up with a lawyer who I was not fond of who dropped the ball on several occasions. However, one day I came across Mr. Novak's page and I gave him a call. I am so thrilled with how the entire case was handled! Sean picked up the pieces and with the help of his team he got everything handled with no issues whatsoever. Thanks to him I can get started on a path to recovery. Sean is a hero!

When a Friend or Family member mentions to me they have a personal injury matter I do not even pause with a moment of thought as I say to them with complete and utter confidence that I've done the correct thing by referring them to Sean Novak, I'll provide the individual Sean's contact information and as well get in touch with Sean and offer him their information as well so that there will be two way communication established.
Then from this point forward I can rest in peace that Sean Novak, Will apply his extraordinary skill and research combined with communication capabilities to their matter as he's successfully preformed with my cases which I'm thoroughly satisfied with the outcomes of each case that he has been at the helm as I'm confident that he is the Best there is at what he does and when you need the best to Shepard your case Sean Novak would be the Attorney I recommend with the utmost confidence that you hire.

Gina represented me and my husband in a case for breach of residential lease involving legal issues of first impression. She defeated defense motions and we ultimately won a judgment against the defendant, as well as regain possession of our property. The law and the facts were both complicated, and it took several hearings with supplemental written briefs and oral argument to finally prevail, but the ride was well-worth it. She always had great instincts on strategy and kept us posted on what was going on.

Gina was a lifesaver. She did an outstanding job knocking out a lawsuit for alleged quiet title and declaratory relief for me in a commercial real estate context. Within three months, the case was over. She won on a demurrer motion, without the other side being allowed to change their complaint, do any discovery, call me for any depositions, or for trial. The other side has promised to appeal and I am confident she will do a fantastic job handling the appeal if they do. I cannot say enough good things about her! If you want to win, you must hire her!

Her work was a reflection of my office and I was proud to take submit her work under my office's caption.

I have had the pleasure of working with Mr. Naylor for the past 13 years on different cases.
I first contacted Mr. Naylor shortly after my husband suffered a work related injury while working as a formen on the waterfront. Sadly our case escalated from a work comp. injury to a wrongful death case within days and needless to say, reaching a settlemet not just with the employer but with one of the big three auto manufacturers took time.
He was prompt to inform me of our rights under work comp. laws and made sure our benefits where in good standing at all time.
He was engaged and sought assitance from other coucil when needed and remained the liaison when ever needed between, the employer, benefits office and any other council involved.
In all my years of working with attorneys, both work related and on a personal level, he is one of the most reliable and honest attorneys I've had the pleasure of working with.
His staff is polite and very efficient and always willing to help when Mr. Naylor is not available.
I have refered multiple friends and previous buisness contacts to him throughout the years and would not hesitate to call on him again, should I find my self in need of someone with his expertise.

I found in Mr. Steinhart a very experienced ,knowledgeable, Professional attorney. But even more valuable was discovering Mr. Steinhart was a man to whom you felt cared about your case. He actually doesn't just by trade care about our justice system, but truly cares that our justice system at times fails us. He is a man that I felt doesn't just give concern to the monetary value of a case, But actually cares about the persons in the case. I feel its important to trust in attorneys that just winning every case isn't what's the most important , but making sure truth & Justice win the case. Thank you Mr. Steinhart for your willingness to help my son. May God Bless You and Yours Wherever Life's Journeys takes yall. Ms. Charlotte

I retained Mr. Carl Mandabach to represent me against my employer of 20 years in an ugly Workers Compensation fight in 2012. He was highly professional, knowledgeable in the Law and demonstrated strong work and moral ethics. Mr. Mandabach presented a forceful and persuasive argument under extremely difficult circumstances. He consistently fought for me and his diligence resulted in a sizable settlement for our side.
Again, in 2014 Mr. Mandabach represented me when I had a dispute with the Social Security Administration. He worked my case and stuck with it until he succeeded in securing permanent disability status for me. This “win” was a life-changing event for me and happened because of his caring and expertise dealing with the Social Security system.
I consider Mr. Carl Mandabach one of the finest, most competent attorneys in the greater Sacramento area and would not hesitate to call on him for legal assistance in the future.

Dirk took over my worker's compensation case and social security case and won both in only year! He was able to resolve my cases quickly, efficiently, and made sure that I received all of the benefits I was due from my work. Dirk and his team kept in constant contact with me and kept me in the loop. Anytime I had a question or needed something from their office, they would get back to me right away. The paralegals do an outstanding job and definitely know what they are doing. They even went above and beyond to assist in coordinating with my doctor's appointments. Dirk and his legal team are the whole package and I am glad I trusted them with both of my cases. I would highly recommend them to anyone seeking their expertise.

Dirk helped me with a Workers Comp case. His demeanor and knowledge during the deposition was impressive. I felt like I was on a winning team from the get-go. I was very nervous because I have never been examined like that before but as those two hours passed I knew he had my back. Worker's comp issues are most likely impossible to navigate without proper council and he is the guy. If anyone asks I would eagerly refer Dirk. Paralegals were extremely knowledgeable, helpful and courteous.

Dirk was of amazing help with my case. Not only did I win the case but his communication was great and he really did a great job of educating me on the process.
I highly recommend him as he really cares about the client, he knows Workers Comp extremely well, and at the end of the day he gets the job done.
Thanks Dirk for your help in giving me the opportunity to turn my life around from a financial standpoint.

When I explained my situation to Mr Seyfi he asked me what I did? I told him I was a recording artist. He asked if I had any music available? After he heard a few tracks on Apple Music he told me to get out there and continue to make good music. And not to worry about this case because he was going to make it go away! And he did exactly as he said! After that initial meeting in his board room I never heard from the courts, police or anyone ever again. There are no words? This guy has strong medicine.

I had the pleasure of speaking with Anthony through a free consultation. He was very informative and was able to explain legal terms to me in a way that I was able to understand. I received documents about a securities investment from a real estate developer. I wasn't fully knowledgeable about the terms and agreements that the documents entailed. Anthony made me feel more educated and confident about the documents that I was going to sign. He was also friendly and made my friend and I feel comfortable during the consultation. I definitely recommend taking some time out of your day to speak with Anthony as I feel he can help you with whatever legal concerns you may have. I recommend Anthony to all that are interested in making an appointment with him!

I came here without the knowledge of needing an attorney for my will. Mr. Chaddock made me realize that I am going to not only need a specific attorney, but a certain attorney who specializes in making certain that my wishes are met. Very much appreciate him putting his time in!

What a Workers’ Compensation Lawyer Can Do for You
A workers’ compensation lawyer specializes in helping employees who are injured or become ill as a result of their job to receive the benefits they are entitled to under workers' compensation laws. These lawyers represent injured workers in claims for medical benefits, wage replacement, and other compensation related to workplace injuries or illnesses. They also help when claims are denied, benefits are delayed, or disputes arise with the employer or the insurance company.
Whether you've been injured on the job, developed an occupational illness, or are dealing with a denied workers' compensation claim, a workers’ compensation lawyer can help you navigate the claims process and ensure you receive the full benefits you deserve.
When Should I Hire a Workers' Compensation Lawyer?
You should consider hiring a workers' compensation lawyer in several situations, especially when complications arise during the claims process or when your rights as an injured worker are being challenged. Some common reasons to hire a workers' compensation lawyer include:
- Claim denial: If your workers' compensation claim has been denied, a lawyer can help you appeal the decision and represent you in hearings or litigation.
- Inadequate benefits: If the insurance company offers you a settlement that doesn’t cover your medical expenses, lost wages, or other damages, a lawyer can negotiate on your behalf for a fair amount.
- Delay in receiving benefits: If your benefits are being delayed, a lawyer can help expedite the process to ensure you receive timely compensation.
- Permanent disability: If your injury leads to permanent disability (partial or total), a lawyer can help you navigate the more complex process of securing long-term benefits.
- Retaliation by employer: If your employer retaliates against you for filing a workers' compensation claim (e.g., by firing or demoting you), a lawyer can protect your rights and pursue legal action.
- Third-party liability: If a third party (e.g., a contractor or equipment manufacturer) was responsible for your injury, a lawyer can help you pursue additional compensation through a personal injury lawsuit.
- Pre-existing conditions: If your employer or the insurance company claims that your injury is related to a pre-existing condition, a lawyer can help you present evidence showing that the injury was work-related.
Hiring a lawyer early in the process can prevent delays, avoid mistakes, and ensure you receive all the benefits you’re entitled to under workers' compensation law.
What Does a Workers' Compensation Lawyer Do?
A workers' compensation lawyer provides a range of legal services to injured workers, ensuring that they receive the benefits they deserve. Their tasks often include:
- Filing claims: Helping injured workers prepare and file their workers' compensation claims to ensure accuracy and timeliness.
- Appealing denied claims: Representing workers whose claims have been denied and guiding them through the appeals process, including hearings and court appearances.
- Negotiating settlements: Negotiating with insurance companies to secure fair compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages.
- Handling disputes: Resolving disputes between the injured worker, the employer, and the insurance company regarding the amount of compensation or the nature of the injury.
- Coordinating medical evidence: Gathering and presenting medical records, expert testimony, and other evidence to support the workers' compensation claim.
- Advocating for benefits: Ensuring that injured workers receive all the benefits they’re entitled to, including temporary or permanent disability benefits, vocational rehabilitation, and medical treatment.
- Filing third-party lawsuits: In cases where a third party is responsible for the injury, a workers' compensation lawyer may also pursue a personal injury lawsuit to recover additional damages.
How Are Workers’ Compensation Lawyers Paid?
Workers' compensation lawyers typically charge a contingency fee, meaning they only get paid if they successfully recover benefits for you. This fee is usually a percentage of the benefits awarded, and the specific percentage is often regulated by state law. Here's how it generally works:
- Contingency fee: The lawyer's fee is typically between 15% and 25% of the total benefits awarded to you. You don’t have to pay any upfront legal fees, and the lawyer’s fee comes out of the settlement or benefit award.
- No fee if no recovery: If the lawyer doesn’t recover any benefits for you, you generally don’t have to pay for their services.
- State regulations on fees: Many states cap the percentage that workers' compensation lawyers can charge, and some states require the fee to be approved by the workers' compensation board or judge.
Be sure to discuss the fee structure with your lawyer during the initial consultation to understand how much you will owe if your case is successful.
How Much Does a Workers' Compensation Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a workers' compensation lawyer typically depends on the contingency fee arrangement, meaning the lawyer’s fee will be a percentage of the benefits you receive. General cost estimates include:
- Contingency fees: Most workers' compensation lawyers charge between 15% and 25% of the total settlement or benefits awarded. For example, if you receive $50,000 in benefits, the lawyer’s fee would range from $7,500 to $12,500.
- State regulations: Some states limit the percentage that workers' compensation lawyers can charge. In these cases, the fee is usually capped, often at 20% to 25%, depending on state law.
- Additional costs: Some lawyers may charge for out-of-pocket expenses, such as filing fees, medical records retrieval, and expert witness testimony, though these costs are typically deducted from the settlement after the case is won.
You should always ask for a clear explanation of fees and potential additional costs during your consultation so you understand the financial arrangement.
Top Questions to Ask a Workers' Compensation Lawyer
Before hiring a workers' compensation lawyer, it’s important to ask the right questions to ensure they are the best fit for your case. Key questions to ask include:
-
What experience do you have with workers' compensation cases?
Ensure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, especially if your injury is severe or the case involves disputes. -
How do you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges a contingency fee and whether there are any additional costs you need to be aware of. -
What is the likelihood of success in my case?
Ask for an honest assessment of your case, including the potential challenges and outcomes. -
Have you handled cases like mine before?
Find out if the lawyer has experience dealing with cases involving similar injuries or disputes, such as denied claims or permanent disability. -
How long will the process take?
While it’s difficult to predict an exact timeline, the lawyer should be able to provide a general estimate based on their experience with similar cases. -
Will you personally handle my case?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle parts of your case. Make sure you know who will be working on your claim.
How to Check the Credibility of a Workers' Compensation Lawyer
To ensure you are hiring a reputable workers' compensation lawyer, follow these steps to verify their credentials and track record:
- Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing, with no disciplinary actions against them.
- Look for workers' compensation experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in workers' compensation law and have successfully handled cases similar to yours.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s expertise and service.
- Ask for references: A credible lawyer should be willing to provide references from past clients who can speak to their experience in workers' compensation cases.
- Check for professional affiliations: Membership in organizations like the Workers' Injury Law & Advocacy Group (WILG) or local bar association committees on workers' compensation can indicate the lawyer’s commitment to this area of law.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make the most out of your first consultation with a workers' compensation lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:
- Accident report or incident documentation: Bring any documentation related to your workplace injury or illness, including accident reports or notifications to your employer.
- Medical records: Provide copies of medical records, including treatment notes, doctor’s reports, and any information related to your injury or condition.
- Employer correspondence: Bring any letters, emails, or forms related to your claim from your employer or the workers' compensation insurance company.
- Wage and benefits information: Provide information on your wages, benefits, and any lost income due to the injury.
- List of questions: Prepare questions about your case, the process, costs, and what to expect moving forward.
- Timeline of events: Prepare a timeline of the incident, your injury, and any medical treatment or communication with your employer and the insurance company.
Being well-prepared for your consultation will allow the lawyer to assess your case more effectively and provide you with the best possible legal advice.
