Workers Compensation Benefits and Appeals Advocacy

Securing workers compensation benefits in California requires navigating complex procedural deadlines and medical evaluations. Serving as experienced workers compensation lawyers, the firm represents workers across numerous industries, from logistics and construction to healthcare and manufacturing. Key aspects of their workers comp representation include:

• Filing formal injury applications and challenging improper claims denials at the Workers Compensation Appeals Board

• Guiding clients through Qualified Medical Evaluator and Agreed Medical Evaluator examinations
• Pursuing compensation for cumulative trauma injuries resulting from repetitive workplace strain

Protection Against Workplace Retaliation and Discrimination

Under California Labor Code Section 132a, it is unlawful for an employer to discharge, threaten, or discriminate against an employee for exercising their right to workers compensation benefits. Functioning as assertive wrongful termination lawyers, workplace discrimination lawyers, and employment and labor lawyers, Kuper and Wilson takes swift action when employers retaliate. In addition, they assist workers alongside experienced wage and hour lawyers to ensure uncompensated overtime and unpaid rest periods are accounted for during occupational dispute resolution.
