Our firm has years of experience handling appellate work and petitions for reconsideration on behalf of our clients. Very few workers’ compensation firms have filed and defended against as many petitions for reconsideration as we have. As a result, we have a deep level of experience filing petitions for writ of review, answering petitions for writ of review, filing and responding to petitions for review with the California Supreme Court and conducting oral argument before the court of appeals.
We have a successful track record in advocating that the WCAB properly interprets current law.
When we feel like the WCAB has overstepped its authority, our firm is able to argue for a new interpretation of statutory law or existing case law. We excel in developing and conceptualizing novel theories of defense to defend against liability for workers’ compensation benefits in cases where benefits should not have been provided.
We are routinely sought after by our clients to consult on and assist in lobbying for new workers’ compensation laws. We work with our clients and their lobbyists in drafting potential new statutes, to develop more sensical workers’ compensation laws in California.
