Eligibility for Workers’

Most employees in California are protected by the state-mandated Workers’ Compensation Act. If you were injured or became ill because of your job, you are likely entitled to:
- Medical treatment for your injury or illness
- Wage replacement through temporary disability payments
- Permanent disability benefits if you cannot return to work
- Death benefits for dependents in fatal cases

Attorney Gilbert Fisher will help you file your claim correctly and respond if your employer or insurance company denies or delays payment.
I Was Barely Hurt. Should I Still File a Workers’ Comp Claim?
Yes. Even a minor injury can qualify for benefits. Meanwhile, an injury that seems minor now could reveal itself to be much more serious as time passes. Contacting a lawyer early can protect your rights. Here’s why every worker in Fresno or Salinas should talk to a workers’ compensation attorney, no matter how small the injury seems:
1. Preserve Your Right to Benefits
If you do not file within one year of your injury, you could lose your claim entirely. Mr. Fisher ensures your paperwork is complete and submitted before deadlines expire.
2. Maximize Your Settlement
Insurance companies often offer less than you deserve. Mr. Fisher’s deep knowledge of California workers’ comp law helps you recover the maximum available benefits.
3. Challenge Denied or Delayed Claims
Employers and insurers sometimes reject legitimate claims, hoping workers won’t appeal. Mr. Fisher knows how to fight for a fair outcome and will not back down until your benefits are secured.
4. Protect Against Retaliation
If your employer demotes or fires you for filing a claim, Mr. Fisher will defend your legal rights and pursue justice on your behalf.
5. Ensure Disability Payments Continue
For workers with permanent injuries, insurers may try to stop payments early. Mr. Fisher makes sure you receive every payment you are entitled to under the law.
