Frequently Asked Questions

What is permanent disability in workers compensation?
Permanent disability refers to lasting effects from your workplace injury that reduce your future earning capacity. The firm helps calculate appropriate permanent disability awards based on your specific injury, age, and occupation.
Is my work injury covered if I was partially at fault?
Workers compensation is a no-fault system, meaning your own negligence typically does not prevent recovery. Even if you contributed to the accident, you generally remain eligible for benefits.
What happens if my employer retaliates for filing a claim?
California law prohibits employer retaliation for filing workers compensation claims. If you face termination or adverse employment action after filing, the firm can pursue retaliation claims for additional damages.
