San Diego keeps its workers' compensation matters close to home, and so does this registry. What follows is the San Diego County record for anyone researching a workers compensation attorney, indexed from official State Bar records.
The law also keeps time: one year from injury to file a workers' compensation claim under 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). The plaque below carries the citation; the roster and questions that follow carry the rest.
This page is the San Diego chapter of the registry's statewide record · Workers Compensation Lawyers in California collects every county and city.
One year from injury to file a workers' compensation claim.
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).
324 active attorneys with an address of record in San Diego list workers' compensation among their practice areas on the registry, out of 12,135 active attorneys whose address of record is in San Diego.
By count, the practice areas most often listed by San Diego attorneys are business law (2,677), litigation (2,317), employment (1,426), personal injury (1,299) and real estate (1,141). A count of listings, not a measure of skill.
18 of the 12,135 have claimed and verified their record here; every other listing is the official record as published.
For 982 of the 12,135 active attorneys in San Diego, the registry holds a language other than English; by count, Spanish (787), Chinese (378), French (291) and Japanese (156). Attorneys themselves confirmed Spanish (2); the rest come from a firm website published in that language, which describes the website, not the attorney.
Reading the roster in San Diego. 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.
