If you were injured in California while you resided in California, and you have a claim in California, you need a lawyer who knows California workers' compensation law. Each state has its own set of laws and regulations governing workplace injuries. In California, the practice of workers' compensation law is so complex that the State Bar of California has designated it as a practice area in which an attorney can be certified as a specialist, based on peer reviews, a rigorous all-day examination, and stringent practice requirements. Moreover, your case, if it can't be settled, will need to be tried before a California workers' compensation judge, in California.

Taken together, these factors demonstrate the extreme improbability of finding a Minnesota lawyer who will take your case and be able to successfully represent you. You need a California attorney. One source that can be useful in finding a knowledgeable workers' compensation attorney is the website of the California Applicants' Attorneys Association, www.caaa.org, which has a "find a lawyer" feature. This organization has over 750 attorney members who practice workers' compensation law, representing only injured workers. Good luck!... Read More
