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!
Sincerely,
Ariela Hashem

After been on medical leave for quite a few months, having denied every single proposed treatment for my injury by the workers compensation administrators I finally decided to hire a work comp attorney, I did my homework looking at different law firms, some advertised on TV and others referred to me by people I knew and after an exhaustive search I decided to give my business to Mr Almodovar, he walked me thru the process getting a good doctor to treat my injury and made me feel comfortable knowing I was in the best hands, he is still handling my case which is not over yet but at least I have the confidence that he's handling my case the best possible way, I am really happy so far with his performance, he's very assertive and trust him deeply, his staff is very courteous and very good assisting me every time I need it, sometimes is hard to get a hold of him cause he's very busy but his staff keeps on top of everything!

I have hired Omar Ochoa for my workers comp. claim. I would rate him 10 stars if I could. He is an attorney who interacts with his clients. Him and his assistant (Kevin) are very professional, caring, and understands what you are going through. I have gone through Omar Ochoa in the past and am very impressed by his professionalism. I will not go through another workers comp. attorney. I very highly recommend this attorney.

I was very lucky to have Mr. Ochoa represent me on my workers compensation claim. Unlike other attorneys I have dealt with in the past, Mr. Ochoa made himself available to answer all my questions and explained to me the process of workers compensation at every stage of my case. Even though the insurance company had denied my claim he believe in me and took my case to trial and won. After trial, he got me very good settlement that helped me get back on my feet.

Through recommendations, I have chosen to go with Serob and boy, that was the best decision my wife and I made after we suffered injuries from getting rear ended. From the 1st day until now, which we are almost at the finish line, he has been thorough and honest with us. Nothing was scripted and no pressure. Serob also is handling a separate lawsuit for my family members as well and have been anything else but professional.
Thank you Serob and co!
Will definitely 100% recommend Serob Alajanyan for any personal injury accidents and everything else he specializes in.

The first time I spoke to Samuel Dagan I felt at ease and comfortable. The entire team at this firm was responsive and professional which was much appreciated. Everything that Samuel predicted would happen in my Workman's Comp case came true. He was able to find medical professionals to help me as well as negotiate a settlement that came much sooner than I expected. He assured me many times and was able to ease my anxiety and stress in my difficult situation. Listen to him because he was right on in my case.

Ryan is a good attorney! He took over my husband's case from one of the worst hippie slob attorneys we've ever met. It took a while to settle the case, but those who understand workers' comp and the ever changing laws in California will understand it takes a good amount of time until the case can be settled. There's a lot of back-n-forth between quite a few entities involved, and a lot of the time, the defense drags it out. Ryan was easy to work with and talk with and kept us in the loop the entire way. He's also very knowledgeable regarding the ever changing California workers' comp laws, who the good doctors and specialist are, and other issues you will have to deal with throughout the journey. I've worked in the workers' comp field with quite a few attorneys, and I would hire Ryan again in a heartbeat.

I contacted me.canter about my case and he instantly replied and made me confident he knew and dealt with my works insurance company plenty of times. And I was not deceived. Due to him having many cases, I did have to keep calling and check on status parts of the case, but me.canter and hisbteam were all very sympathetic, and informative as well as helpful. Because of his professional experience I was able to only suffer four months (instead of years and was all works insurance fault) and he was able to speed up the process of my settlement and the check because the insurance company taking forever caused my family and I to become homeless.
I received my check a week in a half maybe close to two weeks after it was signed.
I highly recommend Mr. Canter and his staff. They try very hard to be as responsive and quick as possible and you can tell they actually care about you, not in it for his (small) percentage of the money.

Mr Canter was a very helpful advocate when I was dealing with an injury which made it hard to get back to work. It was a difficult process and I was happy to have someone like Mr. Canter in my corner. The legal process is never without bumps in the road, but I appreciated his willingness to keep me informed throughout the duration of my case. His staff was also helpful when I called. Highly recommended.

Charles Wallace and his team (Nancy/Miguel) did an exceptional job. If there were 10 stars, I would give them that. They went so far above and beyond in handling my Mom's accident case and I don't know what I would have done without them, given that l live in a different state. . They were ALWAYS immediately available and handled the numerous issues that came up. I cannot say enough nice things about them and how grateful I am for all they did.

I hired Mr Dolan as my workers Comp lawyer 3 years ago. But before that I went to see probably 6 lawyers but none of those lawyers want it to take my case. When I was about to give up, my husband came a cross of The law of Shannon Dolan on the website. We contacted him and met him in person. As I told him every details of my situations he gladly took my case with an open arms. As we process everthing that needed to be done he settled my case with the short period of 5 months of 365,000 dollars. yes, you read that right $365,000" I am very please of what he accomplised for me as a reflect in my family as well. What ever he said in his profile about how he cares about his clients is very true. He is the most humble understanding lawyer I have ever met. I highly recommend him to be your workers Compensation lawyer

Mr. Snitzer AND HIS ENTIRE STAFF went above and beyond the call of duty from the first day we called him, to the day I received my last settlement check.
Mr. Snitzer listened to all my explanations and concerns as well as giving me the best advice and advocating for me with compelling evidence and gusto.
Mr. Snitzer explained what to expect, what my options were and all the intricacies of the process every step of the way. Never hesitating to spend the time it took to explain until I understood.

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!

Sean Novak and I crossed paths in 2005 after I'd knocked my head on many walls with one roadblock after another and then lo and behold the skies parted and Sunshine arrived through the clouds in Sean Novak which was a blessing to behold which I did not at that time realize how significant in the long run this would be proven to be true at the time it was such a relief considering all that I'd gone through, However as time tells pretty much all what was revealed that this a lifelong significant Blessing of our crossing paths through our case travails along with the travels they have brought consequentially together to bring about resolutions ,Not only is he personable and attentive to your concerns unlike many others he does not just hear you he more importantly listens to your comments with an empathetic understanding take ownership solution minded approach in consideration as he is visualizing how he will approach the case to like an Superstar athlete win Game, As I've learned over the years through the multiple battles that he and i have stood side by side to endure the most positive outcomes I could have ever imagined and through it all as a result of the due diligence and committed mindset that Sean Novak applies to each and everyone of his clients with welcoming arms which each and everyone of those I've recommended over the years can also attest to when you want the best because your case requires the peace of mind from knowing that you've an attorney who cares and will go to bat for you when the road gets rough and not abandon you and or leave you hanging,Sean Novak is your Man.
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!

My brother and I had to pleasure to retaining Ms. Hogtanian for two matters. In my case, it was a very hard fought legal matter which required a detailed knowledge of the law. Ms. Hogtanian excelled, not only in her knowledge of the law, but her draftsmanship of complex motions and oppositions. I cannot sufficiently express my thanks to 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.

A great attorney! He has gone way above and beyond to make sure my needs were taken care of. If you're ever injured in an Indian Casino, this is the attorney to call. From the minute we met, he has fought to get my injury properly taken care of. From setting up a doctor's appointments to getting approval for all my needs, he ALWAYS has his client's best interests at the forefront.
Mr. Alex Laubach is aggressive in making sure his clients get the best of medical care and compensation.
This area of law is best suited for people like Alex that have compassion for their client's and understand what they have suffered and endured. Alex is simply the best, and far younger and better than the rest.

Great experience, will highly recommend to anyone in need of a personal injury lawyer.

Mr. Kennedys team worked hard on my case like I was a family member. He even showed up at one of my Doctors appointment for support. I was involved in a car accident. Rear ended on the frwy while all other cars had stopped except the two cars behind me. I was hit by someone going at 60 miles and I was at a dead stop. Mr. Kennedy ensured my health was priority then my car was repaired and my settlement was obtained. His team worked hard to negotiate and his secretary Jessica is a pit bull. Trust me you want them on your side. If you need legal representation this is your go to Attorney. He is respected and admired. You can trust the information he gives you and they listen to you. I was always updated on my case and their concern is sincere. What are you waiting for five him a call.

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.
