Worker's Compensation

Work Accident

Unfortunately, too many people get injured at work. When you, or a loved one, suffers an injury while on the job, the case falls under the California Labor Code. As anyone who has been 'stuck' in this system knows, it can be tricky and complicated. The insurance company for your employer does not always act in the best interest of the employee. The carriers often unnecessarily delay and deny treatment recommended by your doctor. Don't let this happen! We can help. In a workers' compensation case, you may be entitled to:
  • Medical Treatment
  • Temporary Disability while you cannot work
  • Permanent Disability
  • Supplemental Work Benefit
  • 132(a) Serious and Willful Misconduct
Work injuries can also result in a personal injury case. For example:
  • You are injured while driving on the job.
  • You slip and fall (as a result of the negligence of someone other than your employer).
  • Construction Site: Injuries as a result of another contractor's negligence.
  • Any injury sustained on the job that occurs because someone other than your employer acted negligently.
  • Steven and Jill Henderson work side by side to get the best result in both cases.

Repetitive Motion Injury:
​Hands, Wrists, Arms, Neck

Repetitive Motion Injury usually occurs from repetitive use of hands and arms from computer activities. If you spend your day repeating the same keyboarding motions over and over again, at high speeds with little rest, this can apply potentially damaging force to your muscles, joints, and tendons.
  • Repetitive Use Injuries can also occur during a car accident in the form of carpal tunnel injuries, hand and arm injuries.
  • Construction workers, carpet layers, virtually anyone is at risk.
  • Often neck injuries are the real source of the problem.
