Claim it before someone else doesWork in Modesto spans a lot of ground: food processing plants, warehouses, farm operations across Stanislaus County, construction sites, and the delivery and service routes along Coffee Road, Oakdale Road, Tully Road and Briggsmore Avenue. An injury in any of these settings raises the same first question — what are you actually entitled to? Under California law, workers' compensation usually covers medical care and part of your lost wages no matter who was at fault, and it is normally your only claim against your employer. But if someone outside your company caused the harm — a subcontractor, the owner of the property you were working on, the maker of equipment that failed, or another driver who hit your work vehicle — a separate third-party injury claim may be open to you as well. That second path matters for people who drive for work; Modesto recorded 1,365 injury collisions in 2025, and some of those happened on the clock. We handle workplace injury claims, including workers' compensation and third-party claims, and can help you sort out which claims apply.
Comp is usually the exclusive remedy against your employer, but we also look for a negligent third party — a subcontractor, property owner, equipment maker or another driver — whose conduct could support a separate claim.
You have 30 days to report an injury to your employer, and any third-party claim generally carries a two-year filing deadline in California. An early conversation keeps both clocks from running out quietly.
