What is your primary product or service?
Legal: we deal with work injuries and products or machines that cause work injuries and deal with the families of injured workers. We assist with both physical and psychological injuries caused by work or stress at work or exposure to toxins and other materials at work which can and often cause harm and result in an injury. Many of our clients are either "first responders" or in the law enforcement field. We represent those who have suffered both physical and psychological or psychiatric injuries at work or from work and seek redress for these injuries. We consider the overall impact of the injuries and try to refer you to other sources of income which maybe tangential to your work injury such as Social Security or Retirement if the parties feel it is appropriate.

Los Angeles, Rancho Cucamonga, Lancaster; however we do service the Oxnard and Ventura area. Because of the COVID issues we do most intakes over the phone or video.

Because of Covid19 we are doing video intakes and interview with ZOOM, SKYPE and other internet interfaces. We want our clients to stay safe yet we want to make sure they get the face to face attention they deserve.
What is the best compliment anyone can give you?
Most of our clients are referrals from other clients, that is the highest compliment we can receive. Many times a client will call with one issue and we realize there are other issues that the client needs assistance with. We have a network of referral sources that we can refer the client to deal with that issue.
Many of our former clients are happy to discuss the "journey" that is taken when you file a claim and tell you of their experiences and what to expect. This is the highers honor we can get, which is a former client willing to help and tell a new client about our office, and what to expect from us and the system.
