One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesEtna is a town of about 737 people, and most of its work happens close to home: ranching and timber jobs, small shops along Main Street, road crews and delivery routes on State Route 3. An injury in a place this size is rarely just a paperwork problem. It can mean the only mechanic, the only clerk, or the only hand on a crew is suddenly off the job. Under California law, workers' compensation covers you no matter who caused the accident, and it normally stands as your only claim against your employer. That said, a lot of Siskiyou County workers are hurt by someone other than the boss: a subcontractor who left a hazard, a landowner who ignored a known problem, a machine that failed, or another driver on Rt 3. Those third parties can be held responsible in a separate claim. LawProactive is free and independent. Tell us what happened, and we connect you with an attorney who handles these cases on contingency.
Comp pays regardless of fault, but it is usually the only claim you get against your employer. The attorneys we connect you with check whether a subcontractor, property owner, equipment maker, or another driver opened the door to a separate injury claim.
California expects you to tell your employer about a work injury within 30 days, and it is illegal for them to punish you for doing it. If you have been written up, cut in hours, or let go after reporting, that matters and we make sure it gets raised.

*No attorney's fee unless there is a recovery. The client may be responsible for court costs and case expenses.
A third-party claim in California generally has to be filed within two years of the injury. Starting early in a small town like Etna gives an attorney time to track down witnesses and records before they scatter.
