Claim it before someone else doesWorkplace injuries in Westminster happen far beyond construction sites. A cook burned on Westminster Boulevard, a delivery driver rear-ended on Beach Boulevard while making rounds, a warehouse worker crushed by a failing pallet rack off Goldenwest Street — each situation raises the same question: who pays? Under California law, your employer's workers' compensation coverage usually answers that regardless of fault, covering medical care and a portion of lost wages. What many people in Orange County don't realize is that comp may not be the end of the road. If a separate party contributed to the harm — a subcontractor, the owner of the property where you were working, the company that built the equipment, or another motorist on Route 39 — a distinct injury claim can exist alongside your comp benefits. LawProactive is not a law firm. We are a free service that connects you with an independent attorney who can sort out which path, or both, applies to you. The attorneys in our network work on contingency, so there is no fee unless there is a recovery.
Workers' compensation is usually your exclusive remedy against your employer, but a negligent subcontractor, property owner, equipment maker, or driver may owe you separately. The attorney you're connected with can evaluate both.
California expects you to report a work injury to your employer within 30 days, and third-party injury claims carry a two-year filing deadline. An early connection helps keep those dates from slipping.

*No attorney's fee unless there is a recovery. The client may be responsible for court costs and case expenses.
Firing, demoting, or punishing a worker for reporting an injury is illegal in California. If your employer has pushed back, that is something an independent attorney can address alongside your claim.
