I am very thankful that I had Edward as my legal council. He was very knowledgeable, dependable and available during my case. We were always in complete communication at all times. Most importantly, he walked me through each path, choices , legal battles with complete understanding. He had a list of amazing doctors and referrals for my healing. He fought to the end to get my best outcome . I would highly recommend him to my family and friends. You will be very happy to have him for your legal counsel. I am very grateful for his work .

All I Can Say Is Thank You To The Amazing Staff at Solution Law, APC!! I suffered an accident last year and they worked with the upmost professionalism and work ethic to help resolve my case in a fast and efficient manner. They helped turn a traumatizing moment in my life into a productive and happy one with being able to achieve the results they did in this case. They made me feel safe and at home the entire time and during every visit. I am undoubtedly coming back to Solution Law, APC for any future cases/issues and would recommend them to anyone for anything!!! Special Thanks To Le, Raul ,and Noah for making this all happen! Appreciate you guys more than you know!!

Went in for a consultation and he was very straight forward and did not rush me to signing a contract, but advised me what's best for my own interest.

I was injured in 2005 and was dealing with an insurance company that fought me over everything I needed, treatment, medication, surgery.
After two yrs I hired Nancy to deal with them. With her help I received all I need.
If you want someone to hold your hand and comfort you Nancy may or be for you. She worked hard for me and I just settled my case with a very nice settlement

Mi estrella lo dice todo
Si buscan un abogado confiable, honesto creo que este buffet no es el correcto.
Mienten y …
A mis audiencias no se presentaron y tampoco apelaban asta que los agarre en la movida porque me presenté por video llamada a una de las últimas audiencias y no se presentó Dennis y supe que así fue durante todos los años de mis audiencias estando con ellos.
Mi caso fue un desastre y se perdió mucho😡😞
Me arrepiento mucho de no haber cambiado de abogado cuando pude.
Dejan que la defensa contraria tome el control.
No los recomiendo

So happy and blessed I found Dennis. My son was hit by a lady that ran a red light while my son was walking to school. Dennis and Juliet have been amazing throughout the entire process. Not only did he care but his heart was genuinely in helping with us.

The absolute worst and the most unprofessional people.
Please do not work with them. I would leave no stars if I could. My case has lasted longer than 4 years and I called to try to get information on my case and they did not give me any answers and the person who answered the phone Chris was the absolute worst he should not be assisting people nor answering phones if he is going to act like people are bothering him and extremely unprofessional.

I have no words to express how thankful I am to have found Beatriz.
Look no further. She knows what she is doing, she is actually available to answer your questions, she will work on your case very closely. The only thing I regret is to not had hired her sooner.
After a painful and long journey of year and a half of divorce with a different attorney, I finally switched lawyers and she so far has done more in a month than my previous lawyer.
Thank you so much Beatriz.

Never again will I hire this firm. My case was a few years ago but it was with this same firm and with Mr. Valencia himself. On the phone he mentioned good things like getting the best results for me possible and possibly getting the charges dropped. All good things you want to hear as a person searching for an attorney but that's not how it went. This guy showed up late to every single one of my court dates by half and or more. He pretty much just showed up to do what I was supposed to do, which is stand before the judge and respond to his requests. I have a prior criminal record so I wasn't expecting him to make magic but at least show up to my court date on time which he did not. All matters were called first who had attorneys but sure enough mine waited until he got there. I feel I would've gotten the same results without him for sure as he did very little communicating with the DA or anyone on the other side of the podium. To top it off on my last court date after not seeing him for over half an hour I called his firm and they informed me he was in redwood city helping someone else. Seriously not cool at all or professional. So they sent another attorney from his office but not until an hour and a half from when the court started. I'm not here to complain about my outcome from the court cause that was a separate issue but i am here to complain about the unprofessional relationship I had with Mr. Valencia and how I will never recommend or reach out to them again. So save your money or go elsewhere because I wasted $4000 for something I could've and should've done myself. Last but not least I think it's very unprofessional how in most of the reviews that are not favored to them they put the person on blast for the previous case they had with them. That's very rude, unprofessional and down right dirty. If they do not like the truth being put in the reviews then maybe they should not be practicing law and giving people false hope. So I won't be surprised if I see information about my case they handled on here based on the responses to reviews that aren't in their favor.

In November last year, based on online reviews, I started consulting with Riccardo. At the beginning, he was quite patient. I consulted several lawyers and eventually chose him based on online reviews and his claim during the consultation that there was a 99% chance of winning the case. I felt relieved to leave the case to him. However, after we paid him, he stopped communicating and never proactively kept in touch.
At first, I thought my case was not a big deal until I was charged and realized the seriousness of the situation. I spent money consulting another lawyer online, who advised me to write a character letter and resume before being charged, which could have helped. But Riccardo never asked me to do anything besides providing basic materials. He was also unwilling to communicate proactively, and I didn't dare to keep asking him questions. Whenever I had questions, they were relayed through his assistant.
Throughout this period, he didn't inform me of what he was doing, and I had no idea about his actions until my case became more severe. He didn't help me much during the whole process and even made excuses, saying the DA was too young to understand family difficulties, which made me feel he was very unprofessional. I had trusted him because he claimed to have 30 years of experience.
After my case resulted in a conviction, I didn't disrespect him until a week ago when I asked if he could attend court on that day. He agreed, and I was very grateful. But today, when I asked him, he angrily told me he was very busy. He could have refused me or informed me earlier. Instead, he made a lot of excuses.
I swear that this person is really unprofessional, and I even doubt if those positive reviews about him are real. I know that when someone makes a mistake and needs professional help, they might go online and look at reviews. If you don't want to waste your time and risk losing your case, you really need to be cautious and not rely solely on ratings. From my experience, sometimes they are not reliable. This is my personal experience working with this person, and I hope to share it with those who need help. I fully understand your feelings, but it's crucial to be careful when choosing a lawyer.

Well, my lawsuit is still underway but everything is going great. It was a shock to discover the death of my brother and to learn that his "friend" had "appropriated" all of his assets. TLL jumped right in to freeze the assets and start the process to get justice for my brother and fulfill his true wishes.

Vincent Marletta is an attorney whom I have known for about 10 years. He is an employment attorney who also represents injured workers in workers' compensation cases.
I was a legal secretary in both the Oakland and San Francisco district offices. Over the years I have seen Mr. Marletta represent the insurance companies and injured workers.
He handled his cases with dedication and diligence. I have been retired from the labor force for over 10 years. I called him because I needed some legal advice re: power of attorney.
I was glad that I was able to talk to him and he answered my questions.

To say this firm outperforms hundreds of others across the state would be a drastic understatement. Tina Odjaghian has devoted her life to one thing: representing the underdog and the voiceless. Her own experiences and challenges have shaped her into an attorney who genuinely cares for her client’s well-being. She doesn't just talk about compassion and dedication; she lives it through her actions. Her team at Odjaghian Law Group consistently go above and beyond to ensure their clients are not only represented but also truly supported during their most difficult times. Their commitment to justice and empathy sets them apart in a field where these qualities are often lacking.
Odjaghian Law Group is a beacon of hope and a true advocate for those who need it most.

I would not recommend this firm for anyone. They're terrible and don't give a damn. If you look at their older reviews, you'll be tempted to sign up if they'll take you. They'll make it sound like they're doing you a favor, because they, "...only take high-value cases," etc. And then, they'll be nowhere to be found, and you'll be the bottom of the barrel. Go find a firm with people who actually care, who don't rest on their own laurels, and who will actually fight FOR you, not WITH you (like my first attorney at this firm did). Best of luck if you do choose them. It'll be a Hail Mary! Tina is too busy attending events in fancy dresses and doing interviews these days...I've never had any contact with her.

Called to set up a divorce consult with Rebecca Medina. Manny Garcia answered all my questions with affluency. He looked up my case and even though this office could not represent me due to where my case was filed, he gave me amazing advice, direction, and clearly wanted me succeed and find answers. Thank you.

When I first started this difficult journey of going through my child custody battle... I was lost and scared. It was so hard to choose the right Law Firm for my case which also included Domestic Abuse. But after reading the reviews through the Law firm of Rebecca Medina, I saw nothing but love and positivity. Immediately, I wanted to call and hear from them. Long story short, I was received with love and patience from all three. Rebecca said to me, "Just trust me through it all..." and that's exactly what I did. In the end, we won our case, and although my children and my path are still a little rocky... I know that I can call my people back with all their full support and help. Rebecca was so fierce in court and amazing through the whole process. Manny was always so sweet, and always there whenever I needed to bug him for anything. So skilled with his work as well! Definitely made me want to even befriend them on Facebook after such a smooth and loving ride. Lol :) Also, Cat was such a sweetheart whenever I got the chance to speak to her.
I definitely chose the winning team, and recommend for all to choose them as well. If you're looking for a brave, fierce, and intelligent team, they are the Firm for you! :)

I wanted to take the time to formally thank you all of you. Rebecca, Manny, and Kat! I truly am appreciative of the hard work and dedication that you have put into my case. I genuinely don’t think things would’ve gone this route if I didn’t have you guys on my team. Thank you for setting realistic expectations for me while still fighting for what we believe to be in my families best interest. If I ever need legal help again in the future (let’s hope I won’t), I will 100% retain your services again! I wanted to be sure to leave you guys a glowing review on Google and if anyone I know ends up needing legal services regarding family law, I will recommend you! Thank you again from the bottom of my heart! Keep doing what you guys are doing. You have established a wonderful business with prompt and excellent client services.

I looked to Jessica Collin’s for legal representation regarding my injury case over a year ago, but unfortunately, the experience has been deeply disappointing due to her lack of communication. Despite numerous attempts to reach out via phone and email, I have not received a single response since last year.
As a client, I expected regular updates and transparency regarding the progress of my case. However, the complete absence of communication has left me feeling neglected and frustrated. This level of unresponsiveness is not only unprofessional but also reflects poorly on the firm’s commitment to its clients.
I urge potential clients to carefully consider this aspect of Jessica Collins services before engaging seeking her services. Effective communication is essential in any legal matter, and the failure to provide it can have significant consequences for the client’s case.

This firm did not get the job done for me, he had my case for almost an entire year then for no reason he dropped me. The communication was extremely poor. I immediately hired a local lawyer and within 2.5 months I had a settlement with the insurance company that granted the maximum on the policy. My new lawyer was very professional and followed through on everything he promised. What a difference.

During my employment as a nurse, I experienced verbal abuse from a patient that
caused significant distress and sleeplessness. Uncertain about the appropriate steps
to take, I discovered Mr. Patrick through online resources. Engaging his services, he
championed my case and provided comprehensive explanations of the legal
proceedings. He maintained consistent communication, keeping me informed
throughout. Moreover, he successfully secured a settlement that eased financial
burdens by covering medical expenses and compensating for lost income. I'm deeply
relieved to have connected with him and would enthusiastically endorse his services
to those seeking assistance with stress claims.

I am very happy with Alex Berlin. His brilliant representation during the hearing and immigration court helped my friend to get his asylum claim approved. Originally, my friend came to the US and applied for a political asylum with another attorney and got his case rejected by US Immigration. I found the Law office of Alex Berlin through a colleague's recommendation. I am very satisfied with his professional attitude as well as humane side. He has a great team, answers calls personally even on weekends and after hours. I recommend the law office of Alex Berlin to all my friends, family members and colleagues.

David approached my workmen’s compensation case with sensitivity through the initial first phase of the workmens compensation deposition process He also returned phone calls from me during the first phase and year of opening and working on my case. But he appeared to lack sound legal analytical skills to settle my case with best possible outcome and seemed preoccupied with his own salary and amount of money he would be making on my case.
When the agreement he made with my employers lawyer changed to his detriment and they lowered the amount of my settlement I still often saw David laughing with my employers lawyers in rooms in Oakland workmen’s compensation building when I went looking for him as I would often be kept waiting 2-3 hours during settlement talks. He clearly had camaraderie with my employers lawyers but seemed most concerned with being liked by my employers lawyer and kept telling me what a decent person my employers lawyer seemed to be. David seemed to be naive regarding my case.
David seemed most upset when I advocated for myself and received a large medicare set aside amount. Attorneys do not receive a percentage with MSA’s. He seemed to lack expertise in this process. I am a licensed clinical social worker who knew what to do to receive a medicare set aside of over $50,000 for future treatment since I also applied for and received social security on my own for a prior work injury. David again seemed to like basic skills regarding social security application process but again I was able to advocate for myself and receive social security in a short amount of time. I would not see this attorney unless you do not mind a small settlement. Again David likes to be liked and get along with everybody as his priority. He seems however to lack shrewdness. He does not appear to have sound legal analytical skills although he means well.

Didn't have the best experience with Troy, at my first appointment with Troy he told me even though I'm clearly disabled my case was not strong enough for him to take on, however he told me there were steps I could take to make my case strong enough, I asked him what those steps were he told me. I began those steps, which took a couple months (all this time I could have been looking for other representation). While doing these steps I tried to keep in touch with his assistant Julian to know exactly what Mr Monge wanted, after getting all those things Mr Monge decides to tell me he still won't represent me. So he basically wasted a lot of my time, now I have less than 2 months to find representation, that's a really bad way of doing business in my opinion, it's so hard for me to go places and do things also, the things he asked me to do were not easy with my conditions, it's as if he doesn't even care.

Mr. Monge was personable and very well versed in social security disability. He was very patient and detailed in explaining the process and in review of my specific case details. He usually provided answers to my questions before I asked them. He took my phone calls and always got back to me if I missed him. He kept me updated throughout the process and called if something definitive came through along the way. Most importantly, we won!

This law firm does not see the lawyers themselves at all, they are all Chinese employees (they are not lawyers) handling cases, my child was injured and fractured while going to school at the home of Teacher Chen (Taiwanese women are not teachers pretending to be teachers) in Luogang School District, 06/06/ In 2022, I entrusted Scott Warmuth Law Firm to represent the child's case. At that time, I appointed a lawyer named ERIC JOHNSON (later, I inquired from the California Bar Association that he was qualified as a California lawyer in March 2022). I found it on www.avvo.com The lawyer with the same name who has practiced for more than 20 years thought it was this lawyer and agreed to use this lawyer, but I have never met one person since I entered the law firm, and I have never given any legal advice. It is all Chinese employees who provide legal advice (according to US regulations, non-lawyers are not all provide legal advice), I suspect that the signatures of the contract lawyers are all fake. The child’s treatment has not yet ended, and I have to ask how much the medical expenses will be. In September, I will pay them the medical expenses, and one of their Chinese employees will handle the case. Said that he would not represent my child’s case anymore. Said he sent us a notification letter. My receiving address was normal, but I didn’t receive the letter. Later, I asked him to send an email. I saw that the date was early August, and the signature was signed. The lawyer is not the original lawyer. I don’t know if it was signed by a Chinese employee. I was delayed for a month and I didn’t call to inform me why it was not the same lawyer. The answer is that they have many lawyers! The case can be given to any lawyer, and I have never seen it. Such a bad law firm, everyone looking for a lawyer must see the lawyer himself, don't ask a Chinese manager to handle the case!

I really wish I had not used this firm! It’s been over a year since my accident, going on 2 years but the insurance has paid and all the bills have been paid! The lady that answers the phone doesn’t have any kind of true customer satisfaction skills at all! She told me my claim is complete but then says that it takes time to make sure all is paid! There should not be a complete ID there’s still bills to pay!
And my case manager is so non informational during this process! When I ask about my settlement I’m told that billing delivers checks 2-3 times a month and there’s been no deliveries this month! WOW! Wonder why this is?
There are so many other injury firms, choose one of them not this one, you’ll be disappointed!

just picked up my check today and I am more than satisfied. I was involved in a rear end accident about 6 months ago. The damage on my car wasn't major. Sterin law provided exceptional service from start to finish. The case managers were on top of my case and they always answered my questions. They didn't make me feel like I was annoying them every time I called. I had a lot of questions because I didn't know how the legal process works but it felt like I was in good hands along the way. The settlement number was more than I expected and I appreciated that Mr sterin gave me options in regards to accepting my settlement or going through with litigation against the person who hit me. To say the least this was a pleasant experience and not something I expected when dealing with lawyers.

I'd like to express my sincere appreciation for Nate and the exceptional support he has provided throughout this entire process. From the moment my mom and I met him, Nate made us feel comfortable and welcomed, like family. His genuine care and attentiveness, along with his politeness and respect, stood out to us. When my mom met him in person, she had nothing but praise for him.
Nate always went above and beyond to support us, and for that, I am truly grateful. What I especially admire is how he would take the time to ask about our weekends or days and listen to us, making us feel heard and valued. His dedication has helped not only me but also my mom, my brother, my cousin, and my brothers-in-law. I wholeheartedly recommend Nate to everyone, and I now know who to turn to for any future accidents. Thank you, Nate, for everything you do. I pray that God continues to bless you and your family.

When I use the words compassionate empathetic concerning trustworthy considerate respectful it's hard to believe those adjectives whatever describe an attorney however the attorney I spoke with at Gitterman and Gitterman, Julio Del Carmen, not only deserves those colorful adjectives but so many more that parallel their meaning.
Without a thought to his own time and with out interest in obtaining another case he educated me on workman's comp in ways that I've never yet knew not even my own attorney discussed any of this with me.
I contacted him to replace my attorney for the same reasons many people do no communication however Mr Carmen took at least an hour of his own time and diligently and in very kind and proper language that I could understand helped me to understand what I was going through and when I was through he advised that I keep my attorney he was not trying to gain an attorney by bad mouthing anybody this person is genuine.
After he spend his time with me I felt much more comfortable with my own attorney and knew that he was just going through his procedures.
And while I would have enjoyed having Mr Carmen as representation I would not hesitate to seek out Mr Carmen should I at any time in the future need legal representation of which is an expert in.
in short it is a pleasure to know that there are people like Mr Carmen in this profession and not only in the profession but sharing the Earth with other people we need more like Mr Carmen.
With great respect I thank you very much for hearing my review.
Respectfully

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.
