Claim it before someone else doesWork in Santa Rosa takes many shapes: construction crews, warehouse and delivery shifts along Santa Rosa Avenue, agricultural labor at the edge of town, and hospital and hospitality jobs that run around the clock. When one of those days ends in an injury, one question comes up fast: who pays for this? In California, your employer's workers' compensation coverage usually answers that, regardless of who was at fault. It covers medical care and part of your lost wages, but not pain and suffering, and it is generally the only claim you can bring against the employer itself. Many Sonoma County workers don't realize a separate claim may exist when someone other than the employer caused the harm. A subcontractor on the site, the maker of a defective tool, a property owner who ignored a hazard, or another driver who hit your work vehicle on US-101 or Stony Point Road can each be held responsible on their own. LawProactive helps you sort out which path fits, then connects you free with an independent attorney.
Workers' compensation is usually the exclusive remedy against your employer, but it leaves out pain and suffering. The attorneys we connect you with check whether a negligent third party opens a second, fuller claim.
California expects you to report a work injury to your employer within 30 days, and third-party injury claims carry a two-year deadline. Getting connected early keeps both clocks from running out on you.
