Workers' Compensation Attorneys in Los Angeles, California

Every workers compensation attorney and workers comp lawyer listing on this page traces back to the State Bar of California's official roll, filtered to workers' compensation matters in Los Angeles. Verification describes profile identity, not quality or outcomes.

One date controls everything that follows: one year from injury to file a workers' compensation claim, per Cal. Lab. Code § 5405. Report the injury to your employer within 30 days (Cal. Lab. Code § 5400); the employer must provide a claim form within one working day of notice (§ 5401). Cumulative-trauma injuries date from when disability and work-connection were known (§ 5412). Read the record below with that clock in mind.

Reading the roster in Los Angeles. Workers' comp runs through an administrative system, not civil court, so look for attorneys who appear regularly at the WCAB district office serving your area and know its judges and QME logistics. Fees are contingent and must be approved by the appeals board, typically 9–15% of the recovery, so representation costs nothing up front. Ask whether your facts also support a third-party civil claim, which comp attorneys often co-counsel with injury attorneys.
