Richard Attorney Chan at Law

Workplace injuries occur without warning and can be caused by a specific incident or by repetitive trauma on the job over time. Everyone injured in their job has the right to file a claim for Workers' Compensation benefits regardless of their legal status in this country. The California Labor Code dictates and limits the benefits that an injured employee may recover. After you are injured, report it immediately to your supervisor and / or employer so that the DWC-1 form (which your employer is required to provide by law) is completed and the incident is documented. Workers' Compensation laws are quite complicated and there are many dates that must be observed to avoid losing your rights. Consult our office at (916) 440-0892 as soon as possible for advice regarding your rights in this type of unfortunate matter.
