One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesPortola Valley's mix of hillside properties, private estates, and small commercial areas along Portola Road and Arastradero Road means workplace injuries here often happen in less typical settings than a factory floor — landscaping crews, contractors, delivery drivers, and property maintenance workers all face real risk. Under California law, workers' compensation is generally your only path against your employer, regardless of who caused the accident. But when 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. Given San Mateo County's rules and deadlines, and the added complexity when multiple parties are involved, it helps to have someone review your situation early. LawProactive doesn't practice law — we simply connect you with an independent attorney in our network who can look at what happened, explain your options, and help you understand whether a third-party claim applies to your case, all at no upfront cost to you.
Because workers' comp is usually your exclusive remedy against your employer, a negligent third party — like a subcontractor or another driver — may still owe you a separate claim. An attorney can help identify whether that applies to your situation.
California requires injured workers to report the incident to their employer within 30 days, and missing that window can complicate your benefits. Getting guidance early helps protect your rights on both fronts.
