What happens when you call

You can call before you've filed a claim, or after a denial. If you have paperwork, keep it nearby. If you don't, we can start with a conversation.

Tell us about the injury.
We’ll ask where you work, what happened and whether you’ve seen a doctor. Then we’ll discuss the claim and what we’d do next. You decide whether to hire us.
If we work together
We handle the adjuster, medical reports and hearings at the appeals board. You get updates and someone at the office to call.

Questions people ask on the first call

What does a workers' comp lawyer cost?

Nothing up front, and the discussion is free. Nothing comes out of your pocket for our representation. We get paid at the end of the case when you get paid. At the end of your case, whatever settlement or award we help you obtain, our office will take a 15% fee.

I got hurt a few weeks ago. Is it too late?

Probably not. You're supposed to tell your employer in writing within 30 days, and you have one year to open a case with the Workers' Compensation Appeals Board, counted from the injury or from the last benefit you were paid. There are exceptions, so don't assume a deadline has passed until you've asked. Here's what to do first.

I don't have papers. Can I still file?

Yes. California's law covers workers "whether lawfully or unlawfully employed," and we don't ask about your status. Your employer can't use it to dodge the claim either.

The accident was partly my fault.

That almost never matters in comp. You don't have to prove anyone did anything wrong, and a mistake on your part doesn't cancel the claim. What matters is that it happened on the job. If your boss is pushing back, read about what your employer isn't allowed to do.

I’m incredibly grateful for this wonderful team. I worked as a Legal Assistant for many years, never thinking I would one day need help with a claim myself. When that day came, the ONE firm that came to mind was Iglow, Bacharach & Herrera. This is a team that is sharp & knowledgeable, but also treats people with respect and compassion. My settlement was life changing and I would encourage anyone to contact them if you are in need of assistance with your claim. Special thanks to Jaime, Erwin, Robert & Olga. God bless u guys, thank you!

Robert is the absolute man and the only lawyer I'd trust with my business. He really went above and beyond to go over my legal situation, provided me with options and helped me resolve things in the best way possible. Thanks so much and I can't recommend Robert and his team enough!
