If you have suffered a work-related injury or illness, you may be entitled to worker's compensation. Workers' compensation is a form of insurance providing wage replacement and medical benefits to employees injured during employment in exchange for mandatory relinquishment of the employee's right to sue their employer for the tort of negligence. Our workers' compensation attorneys can provide a free evaluation of your claim, explain the process, and alert you of any potential pitfalls.
Once retained, a dedicated workers' compensation attorney from our firm will prepare and file all the necessary forms, meet the deadlines, and help you gather the evidence needed to support your case. As your advocate, our job is to negotiate with the insurance company for the maximum possible settlement. If the settlement offer from the insurance company is not acceptable to you, our associate attorneys will prepare for and represent you at the hearing or trial.
Receiving compensation for injuries sustained at work should be a simple process, but unfortunately, it hardly ever is. Insurance companies have become notorious for practicing bad faith, and when they do, employees can easily have their claims denied. Even if your claim is approved, you might be persuaded to return to work before you've had the opportunity to make a full recovery. Besides medical care, you could be eligible for disability benefits and even partial or total permanent disability benefits. Having a workers' compensation lawyer on your side is the only way you'll be able to receive what you're owed. At Yepremyan Law Firm, a trusted worker's compensation attorney will handle your claim from start to finish, ensuring that you receive the maximum possible compensation.
California has stringent laws to protect employees from aggressive insurance companies or big corporations who might not have your best interest at heart. There's no need to compromise professional relationships at work when your employer questions your injuries. Fighting for your rights can become an uphill battle when you may not even know the best course of action to take. Instead, work with an experienced law firm that can take care of you.
