Injured at work? You're entitled to medical care, weekly wage replacement, and a permanent disability settlement. We've been fighting for injured California workers for sixty years. Free consultation. No fee unless we win.
We respond within one business day. Free consultation. No obligation.
We've secured seven-figure recoveries for catastrophically injured California workers — and meaningful settlements for thousands more. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes.
When you've been hurt on the job, the insurance carrier is already building a case against you. You need a firm that's been answering for them — and beating them — for sixty years.
Founded in 1965, we've handled tens of thousands of California workers' comp and injury matters. Few firms in Los Angeles have the institutional experience we've built.
$3.5M, $1.8M, $850K — seven-figure recoveries for catastrophically injured workers and meaningful settlements for thousands more. Contingency only.
English, Spanish, and Korean spoken in-office every day. No third-party interpreters between you and your attorney.
Direct with adjusters, methodical with documentation, relentless about the deadlines that decide your benefits. Your job is to heal. Ours is to fight.
"Mr. Teitell is one of the best attorneys I've ever been represented by. He is professional, accurate, and attentive to detail. He genuinely cares for the well-being and financial position of his clients. I recommend his office to anyone dealing with a work-injury situation."
"Best law offices in California and Los Angeles. Mr. Jamey and Mr. Solov are professional attorneys. They helped me with my work comp cases — it takes time but the results are positive. I recommend this law office for anyone."
No. We handle every workers' compensation case on contingency — there is no fee unless we recover compensation for you. The initial consultation is always free.
Generally: medical care (paid 100%), temporary disability (two-thirds of your average weekly wage, capped at approximately $1,680/week in 2026), permanent disability ratings, a supplemental job displacement voucher, and in catastrophic cases a lifetime pension. We calculate what you're actually entitled to during the free consultation.
California law requires you to report a work injury to your employer within 30 days and file a DWC-1 form. The statute of limitations for filing with the WCAB is generally one year from the date of injury. There are exceptions, so call us immediately if you're unsure.
Yes — and you should call us immediately. Denials and Utilization Review (UR) decisions are appealable through Independent Medical Review (IMR) and at the WCAB. Approximately half of well-prepared appeals reverse the denial.
California law prohibits retaliation against an employee for filing a workers' compensation claim (Labor Code §132a). If retaliation occurs, there are additional remedies available — including increased benefits and potentially a separate civil claim.
Within one business day — often the same day. If your matter is time-sensitive (a denied claim, an upcoming deadline, an injury that just happened), call (213) 380-9310 directly. We answer 24/7.
The insurance adjuster's job is to pay you as little as possible. Our job is to make sure you get every dollar California law entitles you to. Free consultation, no fee unless we win.
