Frequently Asked Questions

If I was fired after reporting a workplace injury, can I sue?

Yes. California law prohibits retaliation against employees who report injuries or file workers compensation claims. The Dominguez Firm can pursue both workers compensation benefits and wrongful termination claims in these situations.

What's the difference between a workers compensation claim and a personal injury lawsuit?

Workers compensation provides benefits for work-related injuries regardless of fault but typically limits recovery amounts. Personal injury claims allow recovery for accidents caused by another's negligence, including damages for pain and suffering. Sometimes both apply.

Will I have to go to court?

Many cases settle before trial, but The Dominguez Firm is fully prepared to represent you in court if necessary. They'll discuss settlement opportunities while ensuring you're ready for trial if negotiations don't succeed.
