One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesSouth Lake Tahoe's economy runs on tourism, hospitality, and outdoor recreation, and that means a wide mix of on-the-job hazards — from slips on icy loading docks near Lake Tahoe Boulevard to equipment injuries at ski resorts and lifting strains among hotel and restaurant staff. Under California law, workers' compensation is typically the exclusive path for claims against your employer, no matter who was at fault, but that's not always the whole story. If a subcontractor, property owner, equipment manufacturer, or another driver contributed to your injury, a separate third-party claim may be possible alongside your workers' comp benefits. Understanding which path — or paths — apply to your situation can be confusing, especially while you're recovering. We review the details of your injury and explain your options, free of charge and with no obligation.
While workers' compensation is usually the exclusive remedy against your employer, a negligent third party — like a subcontractor or equipment maker — may still be liable for a separate claim.
California law generally requires reporting a workplace injury to your employer within 30 days, so getting guidance early can help protect your rights.
