Most employees know what workers' compensation is, but really don't give it a second thought until a workplace accident happens and they're left suffering from an injury. A more serious type of injury, such as a broken bone injury or a head injury, can put an employee out of work and leave them suffering from permanent disabilities.
Now, instead of pursuing a lawsuit against his or her employer, the injured worker can look to the work comp system for help with financial and medical needs. As soon as you return the DWC1 form to your supervisor, they should submit it to the company's insurance carrier. Once the insurance company has received your request, they have 14 days to review your claim.

State and federal laws regulating the use of hazardous materials and strict safety guidelines put in place help reduce the number of serious construction accidents, however, accidents can and do happen.

I'm writing this review to express my gratitude to Robert and his son Ryan for doing a superb job and handling my Workmen's Compensation case. So much happened in the process of the last couple of years settling my case I really don't have the energy to type out the entire scenario but I can promise you that these two gentlemen are the best Worker's Compensation lawyers in Oakland by far. If you're looking for the best call and ask for Ryan. A very very patient young man who will listen to all of your concerns and give you the best advice.

I found Golden State Attourneys online and I saw they had great reviews, so I made the call. Attourney Ryan Davis was assigned my case. These things are very stressful, but Mr. Davis and his team were very helpful along the way. My case was settled so quickly that I finally felt this weight come off my shoulders. Thank you all and also Raymi for all your help.

Isuffered a career ending injury, displaced from employment for over a year and had some very serious surgery to my dominant hand! Ryan and Robert were great in the begining to get me to sign with them..to my surprise they became unresponsive, the doctor that was chosen to due my medical review lied in the report but I had no professional representation! I ultimately was forced to take a settlement, in Roberts words "Should accept offer, or we go to trial and you might not get anything"! DO NOT TRUET THIS LAW FIRL! I SHOULDVE GOT ANOTHER ATTORNEY!

The main thing I would like to express. The gentleman that did my intake (Chris) is awesome. It’s quite obvious that he is compassionate, understanding, caring and passionate of his work. His patience and willingness to listen AND hear what I had to say is unparalleled. I am saying this after speaking with 20 other people at 20 other firms before talking to him. He is the reason I even considered being represented by Golden State. If it is his choice to climb the ladder of law anywhere he chooses to work, I am 100% confident that he would go far above and beyond any clients expectation on many

I literally dont understand all these 5 stars seem so fake to me. Almost a year my case haven't even started. How do I know I call the court house myself nothing was ever filed on my behalf. But it's cool it's what I get I guess for not shopping around but letting the first firm I ever contact take my case I give them all hope with zero result. I've learn to live life moving forward but what a bad experience so so so disappointed.

I had the pleasure of working with Ryan on a claim and was very pleased with the outcome. He was very thorough in explaining everything needed to get the best chance at the desired results. Ryan showed a tremendous amount of dedication in making sure he provided a great client experience. He didn’t talk over my head and he was patient with my questions. Ryan is super in touch and highly relatable to the everyday working American. He was a perfect fit for me and my family. We were pleased with the outcome on our injury case. I definitely recommend.
