How Can a Los Angeles Workers’ Compensation Lawyer Help?
The insurance companies often try to pay as little as possible. They might say your injury did not happen at work or that it is not very serious. A lawyer makes sure this does not happen. We help you fill out paperwork correctly and on time. We also gather medical records to prove how hurt you are. If the insurance company denies your claim, we go to court to fight for you. We make sure you get the full amount of money allowed by law.
Types of Workers’ Comp Cases We Handle Near Larchmont
We help workers from many different jobs in the Mid-Wilshire and Larchmont areas. It does not matter if you work in a local boutique, a restaurant, or on a nearby construction site. Some common cases we handle include:
- Back and neck injuries from lifting heavy boxes or equipment.
- Slips, trips, and falls on wet floors or uneven stairs.
- Carpal tunnel and other injuries from working at a desk for a long time.
- Serious accidents involving tools or machinery.
- Illnesses caused by breathing in chemicals or mold at work.
- Head and brain injuries from falling objects.
Compensation for Workplace Accidents in California
In California, workers’ compensation provides several types of help. First, it pays for all your medical bills related to the injury. Second, it gives you checks to replace part of your lost pay while you cannot work. This is usually about two-thirds of your normal wages. For 2026, the state has set new maximum and minimum rates for these payments. If you are left with a permanent disability, you may get a settlement to help with your future. We make sure you get every dollar you qualify for.
What Is a Third-Party Claim in Los Angeles?
Sometimes, someone other than your boss is responsible for your injury. For example, if you are driving for work near Larchmont and a reckless driver hits you, that driver is a third party. In these cases, you might be able to file a regular lawsuit against them while also getting workers’ comp. This can help you get extra money for things like pain and suffering, which regular workers’ comp does not cover. Our team looks at every part of your accident to see if this is an option for you.
Workers’ Compensation Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have a time limit for filing workers’ compensation in Los Angeles?
Yes. You should tell your boss about your injury within 30 days. In most cases, you have one year from the date of the injury to file an official claim form. If you wait too long, you might lose your right to any benefits. It is always best to start the process as soon as you can.
Will workers’ compensation reimburse my full salary?
No, it usually does not pay your full salary. Most people get about two-thirds of their average weekly pay. There are also “minimum” and “maximum” amounts set by California law. For injuries happening in 2026, the maximum weekly benefit has increased to $1,764.11. We check these numbers to make sure the insurance company is paying you the right amount.
How long can I stay on workers’ compensation?
For most injuries, you can get temporary disability payments for up to 104 weeks. These weeks can be spread out over five years from the date you were hurt. If your injury is very severe, you might be able to get payments for a longer time. If you can never work again, you may qualify for life-long benefits.
How much is the average workers’ compensation settlement?
Settlements vary a lot based on the injury. Some smaller claims settle for a few thousand dollars. However, if you have a serious injury that requires surgery or keeps you from working, the settlement can be much higher. We have settled many cases for over a million dollars for our clients.
Can my boss fire me for filing a workers’ compensation claim?
No. It is illegal for an employer to fire you or treat you badly just because you filed a claim. California law protects workers who stand up for their rights. If you feel like you are being punished at work because you got hurt, tell us right away.
