How can I afford an attorney for my workers' comp case?
This video reviews how applicant attorneys are paid in workers’ compensation cases. If you are an injured worker with a California injury, and don’t have an attorney, this video is intended to help provide an overview of workers’ compensation topics so you can better represent yourself.
Many injured workers would like to hire an attorney, but are concerned that they can’t pay the attorney fees, or won’t be able to afford it. However, applicant attorneys in workers’ compensation cases are paid on a contingency basis, meaning the attorney gets a percentage of the settlement at the end of the case. It’s more fully described in the video.
Jeremy Lusk is a certified specialist in workers’ compensation with almost two decades of experience, and previously served as a Judge at the Fresno District Office of the WCAB. He has worked out of Fresno, but appeared at numerous Boards to represent both injured workers and employers/carriers.
No attorney/client relationship is created or implied by this video. This video is not offering legal advice as to what you should, or should not, do in your workers’ compensation case, but rather offers education/information as to the California workers’ compensation system for unrepresented workers so they can better represent themselves and make more informed decisions.
