Bettina Yanez was such an amazing advocate in my family law case. Her expertise and experience made an exceptional difference in the outcome of my case. Family Law Court is never fun, but Bettina and her paralegal, Angelica, made the entire process so organized, smooth, and they assured our interests were protected. Thank you Yanez & Associates for a successful outcome!

Sean was an extraordinary lawyer who helped guide us through the legal processing of a family matter for us. He was able to successfully handle the legal affairs, paperwork, and discussions/compromise with us to minimize our time in courts. This also allowed both parties to receive fair and equal outcomes. Would recommend Sean any day to handle familial legal disagreements that require intervention. Thank you for all the help, guidance, and timeliness of communications.

Samantha Andrew’s assistant very rude lady.!!! Talks to you with an attitude. Very unprofessional does not know how to speak to clients nicely. No matter the issue between the client & attorneys office there’s no reason why you should be speaking in such ugly and unprofessional way. Also , when trying to speak with Andrew griffin he’s ethier never there or with another client…👎🏽 👎🏽👎🏽

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.

Michael Lonich has been a delight to work with. He first helped me with my father's estate, redoing the trust to close loose ends at a time when family trolls were seeing nothing but dollar signs. He just wrapped up my wife and myself with our estate planning. He is knowledgeable, efficient, and easy to work with.

I have had the privilege of working with Octavio Cardona (Vito) at Golden & Cardona-Loya LLP for over eight years on various consumer rights cases, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. Octavio is exceptionally communicative, ensuring I am well-informed and comfortable at every stage. His commitment to protecting my rights as a consumer has consistently been evident, with his expertise making a significant difference in every case.
Octavio is a lawyer I truly trust. His ability to demystify complex legal jargon, making it easier to make informed decisions, is just one of the many reasons. His professionalism and thorough approach have always left me feeling confident and well-represented. The firm itself is fantastic, offering great support and resources that enhance their client service.
I highly recommend Octavio and Golden & Cardona-Loya LLP to anyone needing assistance with consumer rights issues. Whether it’s for personal matters or referring family and friends, you can trust Octavio and his firm to provide top-notch legal support. I look forward to continuing to work with him for any future assistance.

I called Peter and refreshingly he was honest with me and told me my situation didn’t even require a lawyer and I could just pay the ticket. Other lawyers tried to charge me thousands for a $100 ticket and said it would follow me around for the rest of my life if I didn’t use their service and fight it. I truly thank Peter for his honesty and integrity instead of taking advantage of someone in a stressful situation. BEST LAWYER EVER.

Highly recommended!

*Disappointing Experience with Roy Yang Law Office- Lack of Communication and Unprofessional Service*
I'm extremely dissatisfied with Roy Yang's Law Office handling of my workers' compensation case. Despite hiring them 7 months ago, I've experienced chronic communication issues and unprofessional service.
Key concerns:
- *Ignored emails*: Multiple messages regarding my case have gone unanswered.
- *Lack of preparation*: No one briefed me on what to expect for my recent QME (Qualified Medical Evaluation).
- *Missed appointments*: A phone appointment was scheduled without notification, and I only discovered it by calling the firm.
- *Unhelpful staff*: When I do reach someone, I'm made to feel like a burden or an inconvenience.
Given my frustrating experience, I question the authenticity of positive reviews. I advise others to exercise caution when considering Roy Yang for legal representation.

My experience with the Gill Law Group has been exceptional! All the Staff members are kind, respectful and knowledgeable. The Attorney representing my case is fully committed to me and answers all my questions in a timely manner. The Gill Law Group made me feel valued and important from the very first call. The attorney's are very honest and transparent, always willing to go the extra mile for the clients. I'm very pleased with the services I receive from the Gill Law Group, where they firmly advocate for each and every client! Thank-you all for your professionalism and legal representation.

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.

I chose Attorney Jackson because of the Jackson 5 and that they were born in Gary, Indiana. I am a CNA and my work industry is caregiving. My employment as a Certified Nursing Assistant at an assisted living facility for seniors is rewarding.. You must have the heart, patience, and drive to work with anyone from pediatrics to geriatrics because we all will be in need of care someday in your life. That one day changed when on January 31, 2022 I suffered from a work injury that required workers compensation doctors, physical therapy, and counseling; however, my belief in God is first and foremost. Attorney Jackson was helpful in me seeing an orthopedic doctor and a podiatrist for my case because I too had pre existing health conditions that exacerbated my OA ankle work injury. Along with Crohn's disease a.k.a. IBD or irritable bowel disease, my over 7500 page medical history another case developed that qualified me for the State of California Subsequent Injury Trust Benefits Fund. I have never heard of the be SITBF prior to hiring Mr. Jackson. The SITBF that will compensate you for pre existing health conditions. I had three of them which exacerbated my current work injury. Not only did I receive weekly financial workers compensation from the former employer, I also received a WC lump sum settlement in 2023. My pre existing health conditions qualified me also for the SITBF. In 2024, the SITBF surprisingly paid a retroactive lump sum. Additionally the SITBF funding will pay me for the rest of my life. My case took over two years and be patient because health is your wealth. It can be frustrating when you don't hear from your attorney and not knowing the status of your case; however, the attorneys are not the judges that can either approve or deny a WC and SITBF claim. The journey takes time and you are not alone in it even though you may feel that way. Thank you both to Gary, Derek, and all the staff for your assistance. What a God send all of you are. My case taught me invaluable lessons.

I reached out to Jackson and Jackson today, almost not expecting a reply because of the insignificance of the claim involved, only to have Mr. Gary Jackson himself call me back within minutes to advise me on how I could handle the claim myself. Mr. Jackson not only took the time to educate me on the process involved in submitting my claim, but clarified several points on which I had been misinformed and misled in my conversations with Worker's Compensation. He also informed me that, to my surprise, I was actually entitled to a fixed settlement amount in addition to the bare minimum I had been led to believe I could collect. I am certain I never would have learned of this on my own.
I am beyond grateful for Mr. Jackson's invaluable counsel, but I find the kindness and respect with which he treated me, knowing he would not be representing me, simply overwhelming. Mr. Gary Jackson is the absolute best in my book, and I highly recommend his firm.

I was served a temporary restraining order that could of lead to termination by my employer and a threat to my livelihood. Knowing I couldn't do this alone, I pursued legal representation. David Canty took my case. He went above and beyond with his investigation and research. With his professionalism and knowledge, he was able to prove the accusations were frivolous. Which the judge agreed and dismissed the case. Also was able to have the petitioner pay half of my attorney fees. I highly recommend David Canty for any criminal cases.

2023 - I can't believe these Glowing Reviews are true. I think these are bogus reviews. My experience is the same as the first few reviews - Staff is EXTREMLEY RUDE... Attorney's do NOT return phone calls, NO ONE seems to know what's going on with your case. Attorney misses court dates & depositions. Case has been dragged out for over 5 years. WHATEVER you do...DO NOT use this Attorney. I'm really appalled at the lack of professionalism and poor service Cyrus Chen Law provides... After waiting for 6 years - I have to start my case over again with a Competent and responsible Law Firm!

Ron Ellsworth was my lawyer in my triple level cervical spine injury which occurred at my job
For 5 yrs he made himself available to me for everything from getting physical therapy to getting 2nd opinions to receiving pain management psychotherapy which has allowed my to manage my pain w minimal medication
He fought hard for me every step of the way and in the end got me the highest settlement my rating allowed while more importantly getting me LIFETIME MEDICAL CARE which includes monthly trigger point injections which allow me to be able to continue to work & if I choose later on then surgery.
I feel he got me the best settlement that could have been achieved and have recommended him to many other Injured workers I know - once u are permantly injured ur life changes for the worse - Ron helped make the best out of a bad situation

Mr. Ellsworth has by far been the most attentive attorney,he does not have a group of peralegals that give you the runaround, he works with you directly. I wanted to close my case and settle as quickly as possible which he did. He did not make any decision without consulting with me first. He is empathetic, responsible, friendly, very respectful to your needs. Am very, very please with his services. I have recommended Mr. Ellsworth to all family and friends.

Siles and Foster, P.C. is the best worker’s compensation attorney office. This is the second time I have used Steve Foster to represent me in my worker’s compensation case. Unfortunately, I was reinjured at work and immediately knew that I would choose Siles and Foster Law Office to represent me again.
From our first meeting, he explained everything to me in terms I could easily understand and was always very responsive when I had questions outside of our meetings and got back to me quickly.
His administrative staff, especially Tabitha, was always friendly and never made me feel like she was in a rush. She was knowledgeable and would find out the answers quickly if she was unsure.
When you get injured, worker’s compensation can be a nightmare and be very confusing. The firm helped navigate the insurance company and get doctors that cared about my well-being.
If anyone is looking for a knowledgeable attorney that is respectful and knows how to fight for his client, Steve Foster is the right choice. His legal representation restored my faith in the justice system.
I highly recommend and will work with this law office again. Thanks, team!

I had 15 years workman's compensation problems, but always avoided lawyers. Mr Lightman was wonderful. It was a long process as my case had deep history, but it was resolved well. I found him to be personable, interested in my case, and all turned out as well as I could hope, and 100 times better than I would have had if I kept trying this alone.
Highly recommended.

Disappointing Experience with Goldberg & Ibarra Law Firm
Let me preface this by saying, I want to believe in this firm's ability to turn things around, but so far, their client service and attention to detail have been far below acceptable standards. I plan on updating my review should I see an improvement as my case progresses. I also want to highlight that David Ibarra is an excellent attorney when you get him one on one but working with his staff has been the biggest challenge overall.
I had high hopes for the Goldberg & Ibarra law firm, but unfortunately, my experience has been riddled with issues that no client should face, especially when it comes to critical legal matters. The firm consistently fails to meet even the most basic standards for client communication and legal ethics, causing unnecessary stress and frustration.
**Communication Failures**: From the beginning, it was nearly impossible to get in touch with my attorney. Despite numerous attempts to reach out via phone and email, I was often left in the dark for weeks at a time. Not only is this a blatant disregard for the attorney-client relationship, but it also raises concerns regarding ethical obligations under the California Rules of Professional Conduct. According to Rule 1.4, attorneys are required to keep clients informed about the status of their cases, something this firm completely ignored. Specific examples include delayed responses to important case updates and a lack of transparency in terms of strategy and next steps.
**Lack of Diligence**: There were several instances where critical deadlines were nearly missed due to the staff's slow response times and lack of communication and follow through. At one point, I had to follow up repeatedly just to confirm that documents had been filed. This level of neglect could have easily jeopardized my case. The firm's disorganization not only reflects poorly on their ability to manage cases, but also risks violating Rule 1.3, which mandates that attorneys act with "reasonable diligence and promptness in representing a client." It's evident they are overstretched and unable to provide the necessary attention to detail.
**Poor Client Service**: Beyond communication and diligence, the general attitude toward customer service was disheartening. After my initial consultation, there was no meaningful follow-up from their office. Even after expressing concern about the direction of my case, I was met with dismissive attitudes from the staff and no effort to reassure me. Legal ethics require a respectful and client-centered approach, but my experience was far from it.
**Final Verdict**: If you are looking for a law firm that will prioritize your case, keep you informed, and work with the diligence and ethical care that you deserve, I would strongly advise looking elsewhere. Goldberg & Ibarra may have some positive outcomes, but their failure to meet basic legal and ethical standards was unacceptable in my experience.

His standards are reflected from his staff. Highly recommended.

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.
