One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesNevada City's mix of small businesses, contractors, and rural work sites near SR-49 and SR-20 means workplace injuries here often involve more than one responsible party. While California generally requires injured workers to go through workers' compensation rather than sue their employer directly, that system doesn't cover everything—and it doesn't apply to negligent third parties like equipment manufacturers, subcontractors, or property owners who weren't your direct employer. If a defective tool, an unsafe job site controlled by someone else, or a careless driver caused your injury on the job, you may have a separate legal path worth exploring. Our team reviews workplace injury claims directly and can explain your options clearly, without pressure or upfront cost.
Workers' comp is usually the exclusive remedy against your employer, but if a subcontractor, property owner, or equipment maker contributed to your injury, a separate claim may be possible. We can help you sort out which path applies to your situation.
You generally have 30 days to report a workplace injury to your employer, and any third-party claim carries a 2-year deadline under California law. Waiting too long can limit your options, so we help you move quickly to explore your rights.
