Need Legal Help for a Work-Related Injury? We’re Here to Guide You

Suffering an injury at work can be overwhelming—physically, emotionally, and financially. While California’s workers’ compensation system is designed to help injured employees receive medical care and lost wages, the process can be confusing and frustrating. Claims are often delayed, denied, or underpaid. That’s why having a knowledgeable workers’ compensation attorney on your side is crucial. At Scott M. Blumen, Attorney at Law, APC, we provide experienced legal assistance to help you secure the full benefits you’re entitled to after a workplace injury.

Understanding Your Workers’ Compensation Rights

Under California law, nearly all employers are required to carry workers’ compensation insurance. This means that if you were injured while performing your job duties, you may be eligible for benefits—regardless of who was at fault. These benefits may include:

  • Medical treatment and hospitalization
  • Temporary disability payments (lost wages)
  • Permanent disability benefits
  • Supplemental job displacement benefits
  • Mileage reimbursement for medical visits
  • Death benefits for surviving family members

However, just because these benefits exist doesn’t mean they are automatically provided. Many injured workers face unnecessary obstacles when trying to access the help they need.

Common Challenges in Workers’ Compensation Claims

Insurance companies and employers often look for ways to reduce their financial exposure. They may question the seriousness of your injury, claim it wasn’t work-related, or push you to return to work before you’ve fully recovered. Some of the most common issues we help clients with include:

  • Denied or delayed claims
  • Disputes over the extent of injury or disability
  • Refusal to approve necessary medical treatment
  • Retaliation or wrongful termination for filing a claim
  • Pressure to settle for less than you deserve

Attorney Scott M. Blumen knows how the system works and how to stand up for your rights. From filing the initial paperwork to representing you in hearings or appeals, we’ll be by your side every step of the way.

Why Legal Representation Makes a Difference

Having legal guidance from the beginning can significantly improve the outcome of your case. We help you understand your rights, gather medical documentation, meet critical deadlines, and communicate directly with the claims administrator. If your claim is denied, we’ll represent you before the Workers’ Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) and fight for a fair result.

At Scott M. Blumen, Attorney at Law, APC, we don’t just process claims—we advocate for people. We understand how important these benefits are to your recovery and your future.
