You may recover medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages where allowed. The exact amount depends on the injuries, liability, and insurance coverage.
In California, workers’ compensation provides benefits for work-related injuries, while third‑party claims may recover damages not covered by workers’ comp. Depending on the case, you may pursue both paths.
California generally requires filing within the statute of limitations; personal injury claims typically must be filed within two years, while workers’ comp has separate deadlines.

In many cases, there are no upfront fees in contingency fee arrangements; you pay only if we obtain a recovery.
