One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesTehama's economy runs on agricultural work, roadside operations, and small commercial sites along corridors like South Avenue and State Route 36 — and injuries on these job sites happen more often than people expect. Under California law, workers' compensation is typically the exclusive path against your employer, but that's not the whole story. If a subcontractor, equipment manufacturer, property owner, or another driver contributed to your injury, you may have a separate third-party claim worth pursuing alongside your workers' comp benefits. That distinction matters because it can affect what compensation you're eligible to recover. LawProactive isn't a law firm — we're a free service that connects injured Tehama workers with an independent attorney familiar with both sides of these overlapping claims. There's no cost to talk it through, and no obligation. Given the county's rural layout and reliance on farm and highway-adjacent work, having someone sort out employer versus third-party liability early can make a real difference.
Workers' comp usually blocks a direct lawsuit against your employer, but a negligent subcontractor, driver, or equipment maker can still be held separately liable. Sorting this out early can open up compensation options you might not know exist.
California requires reporting a workplace injury to your employer within 30 days, and missing that window can jeopardize your comp claim. We connect you with someone who can help you move quickly and correctly.
