What Happens at a Workers’ Compensation Deposition in California?

If you have filed a workers’ compensation claim in California, you may be asked to attend a deposition as part of the claims process. For many injured workers, receiving a deposition notice can be intimidating, especially if they have never participated in a legal proceeding before.

What Happens if Your Employer Does Not Have Workers’ Compensation Insurance in California?

California law generally requires employers to carry workers' compensation insurance to protect employees who suffer job-related injuries or illnesses. This coverage provides important benefits, including medical treatment, temporary disability payments, and compensation for certain permanent disabilities. However, some employers fail to maintain the required insurance, leaving injured workers uncertain about how their medical bills and […]

Can You Get Workers’ Compensation if You Were at Fault for Your Work Injury in California?

Workplace accidents do not always happen because an employer failed to maintain safe conditions or another employee acted carelessly. Sometimes, workers make mistakes that contribute to their own injuries. An employee might slip while rushing to complete a task, accidentally misuse equipment, or lose concentration while performing a routine responsibility. When this happens, injured employees […]

Does California Workers' Compensation Cover Occupational Illnesses?

When most people think about workers' compensation, they picture sudden accidents, such as falling from a ladder or suffering an injury while operating machinery.

Can Your Employer Force You to Return to Light Duty After a Work Injury in California?

After a workplace injury, your doctor may decide that you can return to work before you are ready to resume all of your regular job duties. An employer may then offer modified or light-duty work that is intended to comply with your medical restrictions. This can leave injured employees wondering whether they have to accept […]

Can a Preexisting Condition Affect Your California Workers' Compensation Claim?

Having a preexisting medical condition does not necessarily prevent you from receiving workers' compensation benefits in California. Employees bring their medical histories with them to work, and a workplace injury can aggravate, accelerate, or otherwise affect an existing condition. The difficult part is often determining how much of the worker's current condition is connected to […]

What Happens if Your Employer Refutes Your Work Injury Claim?

Reporting a workplace injury does not always mean your employer or its insurance company will accept that the injury happened because of your job. An employer may question when the injury occurred, dispute your description of the accident, argue that a medical condition developed outside work, or challenge whether you were acting within the scope […]

Can You Appeal a Denied Workers' Compensation Claim in California?

Receiving a denial letter after a workplace injury can be frustrating, especially when medical bills are accumulating or an injury prevents you from returning to work. A denial, however, does not necessarily end a California workers' compensation case. California provides procedures for challenging disputed workers' compensation claims. The appropriate next step depends on where the […]

Can Your Employer Retaliate After You File a Workers' Compensation Claim?

Filing a workers' compensation claim should not mean putting your job at risk. Yet some California employees worry that reporting an injury or requesting benefits will lead to reduced hours, discipline, termination, or other negative treatment from their employer. California law provides protections for workers who are injured on the job and pursue workers' compensation […]
