Serving clients from its Pomona office and across Southern California, the firm stands as a powerhouse against stubborn insurance carriers and negligent employers. Attorney Michael Burgis, admitted to the California Bar in 2008, has litigated thousands of workers' compensation claims before the Workers' Compensation Appeals Board and secured record-setting 100% disability awards before the California Court of Appeals. When you need to hire a lawyer with proven trial tenacity to maximize your benefits, MB&A provides relentless representation.

Full-Spectrum Workers' Compensation Legal Representation

California workers' compensation insurance is intended to protect injured labor workers and professionals, yet claims are routinely delayed, minimized, or wrongfully denied. As proven workers' compensation lawyers, MB&A provides thorough representation across every aspect of work injury claims, including:

• Workplace injury claims: Representing warehouse workers, healthcare staff, and laborers suffering spinal trauma, brain injuries, or occupational illnesses.
• Denied workers' comp claims: Filing immediate appeals before the WCAB to compel insurance carriers to approve medical care and disability payments.
• Catastrophic injuries: Securing 100% permanent disability ratings and substantial settlements that fund lifetime medical care.
• Subsequent Injuries Benefits Trust Fund: Securing extra state disability benefits for workers with preexisting medical conditions.

Injured employees facing medical treatment cutoff notices or unreturned adjuster calls who need a lawyer urgently receive immediate legal intervention and swift case filings from MB&A.

Vigorous Employment Law and Workplace Rights Advocacy

Workplace injuries frequently coincide with employer misconduct, including illegal retaliation, harassment, or sudden firings. MB&A houses a formidable employment litigation department to hold abusive employers liable under California law:

• Wrongful termination lawyers advocacy: Defending employees fired in retaliation for reporting a workplace injury or filing a workers' comp claim.
• Workplace discrimination lawyers counsel: Litigating claims involving disability discrimination, racial bias, and failure to provide reasonable accommodations.
• Harassment lawyers representation: Protecting workers subjected to hostile work environments and retaliatory abuse.
• Wage and hour lawyers services: Recovering unpaid overtime, missed break penalties, and misclassification damages.

Dual-Action Third-Party Personal Injury Litigation

When workplace injuries involve outside negligence-such as a delivery driver struck by a motorist or a worker hurt by defective equipment-MB&A acts as skilled accident and injury lawyers. Coordinating workers' comp with a third-party car accident or premises liability claim enables clients to recover damages for pain and suffering that workers' compensation alone cannot provide.

No Recovery, No Fee Guarantee with Mobile Client Service

MB&A represents clients on a strict contingency fee basis: zero upfront fees and no attorney fees unless compensation is won. To assist severely injured clients who cannot travel, the firm operates Mobile Recovery Vehicles to meet at homes or hospital rooms. Recognized with Super Lawyers Rising Stars honors and Inc. 5000 accolades, the firm has recovered tens of millions of dollars.
