Serious Workplace Injuries & Illnesses
Our Corona workers’ compensation attorneys can handle a wide range of cases that involve all sorts of injuries and illnesses. In workers' compensation claims, the liability for a workplace injury is typically not an important factor because workers’ compensation insurance is a no-fault system. In other words, you can admit to causing your workplace injury through mistakes and still be fully eligible for benefits.
Common workplace injuries include:
- Repetitive stress injuries: These injuries occur due to repetitive motions or activities performed over an extended period, leading to conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome. For example, an office worker who uses a keyboard for 40 hours a week could be at risk of an arthritis-like repetitive stress injury.
- Fall-related injuries: Falls from heights or slips, trips, and falls on the same level can result in fractures, sprains, strains, head injuries, and other severe physical trauma.
- Occupational illnesses: Workers may develop illnesses as a direct result of their work environment, such as exposure to hazardous substances, leading to serious diseases like respiratory illness and cancer.
Benefits Through Workers’ Compensation
In California, a successful workers' compensation claim can provide various benefits to injured workers. We are here to help you understand the benefits that you could be given through a successful claim. Or if the case has already been denied, we can fight for a settlement that provides financial compensation that will allow you to get all the care you need to reach financial stability again after your work-related accident.
The typical benefits of a workers’ compensation claim include:
- Medical benefits: Workers' compensation covers all reasonable and necessary medical expenses related to the workplace injury or illness, including doctor visits, hospitalization, surgeries, medications, and future rehabilitation services.
- Temporary disability benefits: If an injured worker is unable to perform their regular job duties while recovering, they may be eligible for temporary disability benefits. These benefits typically pay two-thirds of the worker's average weekly wage, up to a maximum set by state law.
- Permanent disability benefits: If a workplace injury or illness results in permanent impairment that affects the worker's ability to earn a living, they may be entitled to permanent disability benefits. The amount and duration of these benefits depend on the extent of the worker's disability, as determined by a medical evaluation.
- Vocational rehabilitation: In cases where an injured worker cannot return to their previous job due to permanent disability, they may be eligible for vocational rehabilitation services, such as job retraining or assistance in finding new employment.
- Death benefits: If a workplace injury or illness leads to the worker's death, their surviving dependents may be eligible for death benefits.
Cases for Independent Contractors
In California, independent contractors are typically not covered by workers' compensation insurance, as these policies are designed to protect employees rather than self-employed individuals. However, there are instances where a worker may have been incorrectly classified as an independent contractor when they should have been considered an employee, thus denying them the workers' compensation coverage and benefits they should be given.
Alvandi Law Group can review your employment status to determine if you have been misclassified as an independent contractor. If it is found that you were wrongly categorized as an independent contractor and should be considered an employee, we can discuss the next steps to take to not just correct the situation but also pursue the compensation you deserve.
When to Tell Your Employer About an Injury
In California, it is crucial to report a workplace injury to your employer as soon as possible. The state law requires that you notify your employer within 30 days of the injury or from the date you become aware of an injury or illness related to your job. Failing to report the injury within this timeframe may jeopardize your eligibility for workers' compensation benefits.
It is advisable to inform your employer in writing, providing details about the injury, including the date, time, location, and circumstances of the incident. Keep a copy of the written notice for your records and make another copy to hand to our attorneys. Once your employer is notified, they are responsible for providing you with a workers' compensation claim form within one working day of receiving the notice.

The Alvandi Law Group has been great so far. They have been very patient and informative with all of my questions and concerns. This is the first time that I have been injured at work so this whole process is very new to me. They got me out to a doctor quickly and the staff seems very friendly. The office itself is very nice and there is a large fish tank in the waiting area.
