One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesFowler's economy runs on agriculture, packing facilities, and the trucking that moves goods along SR-99 and Golden State Boulevard, and workers in these industries face real risks every day. When an on-the-job injury happens, California generally requires you to go through workers' compensation rather than sue your employer directly, even if someone made a mistake. But that's not always the end of the story. If a subcontractor, equipment manufacturer, property owner, or another driver contributed to your injury, a separate third-party claim may be possible alongside your workers' comp benefits. Fowler's mix of small-scale operations and larger distribution activity near the SR-99 corridor means equipment, vehicles, and multiple contractors are often involved in a single incident. LawProactive doesn't handle your case directly, but we can connect you with an independent attorney familiar with how these overlapping claims work in Fresno County, so you understand your options before deadlines pass.
California generally limits an injured worker to workers' comp benefits against their employer, but that rule doesn't shield third parties like equipment makers or other drivers. An independent attorney can help sort out whether a separate claim applies to your situation.
Reporting a workplace injury to your employer within 30 days is required, and California law makes it illegal for an employer to retaliate against you for doing so. Knowing this timeline matters, especially in smaller workplaces where reporting can feel uncomfortable.

If a negligent third party contributed to your injury, that separate claim typically must be filed within two years. Missing this deadline can close off compensation that workers' comp alone doesn't cover.
