Kaiser would not help me and wanted me to go back to work and said lets see what happens. After retaining Mark Thueson he got my case moved to a Doctor that actually identified my problem and had a health care plan. Without Mark I might of not gotten better and certainly would of not received any monetary settlement that included continued care in the future if needed. Having representation can make a difference on how the insurance company treats you. Mark and his staff took good care of me. read more

I strongly recommend anyone injured on the job, even if you're unsure whether you were not, to contact Pacific Workers or PW for guidance. My experience with the Oakland staff is having a great, productive impact on my case. Attorney Mark, Sandy, Camila, and others are responsive, compassionate, and knowledgeable on workers compensation claims. They are helping me to navigate this complex process. I also love the chat app which gives me real-time communication with my legal team. Thank you PW for giving me the respect and attention that I need during this challenging time.

Review for Christopher Wee and the Team at Pacific Workers' Compensation It's been a full year since my injury at the Tesla Fremont Factory, and I'm grateful I made the call to Pacific Workers' Compensation when I did. From day one, attorney Christopher Wee and case workers Alexandra Rodriguez and Stefanny Sanchez have been incredibly helpful and supportive throughout this long and challenging process. If you're going through any kind of workers' compensation situation, don't wait until it's too late. Unfortunately, HR and on-site medical services are not always there to protect your best interests. Today, my claim was finally accepted, and I feel confident knowing that I have a strong team backing me every step of the way. I'll keep you posted as my case moves forward. Thank you again to everyone at Pacific Workers' Compensation! read more

Excellent service fast and very friendly happy with the service I recommend ther work

I am beyond happy with my decision to hire Pacific workers lawyers for injured workers. I want to first say that my Attorney Michael Ullrich, and his team did an outstanding job with my case! I was treated with respect and professionalism, My phone calls were always returned within a timely manner, and the team made sure my question we're fully answered. Being injured at work is already difficult enough as it is, and dealing with the insurance company is even more challenging. Pacific workers made my interaction with all parties smooth and effortless, they helped me find excellent Doctors for my surgeries and some of the best medical specialist in the Bay area!! I want to say a special thank you to the team of my lawyer, thank you Elizabeth Reyes, Katia Vidal, and Juan Carlos. I highly recommend the law office of Pacific workers For your work related injuries. read more

Porque me di cuenta que no son profesionales, los asistentes son los que atienden a los clientes.

My attorney Marco was awesome. During deposition, he put the other attorney in his place. My questions were always answered promptly. I never felt like just a number. I definitely recommend this attorney if you're injured on the job. read more

they dont have good communication. They don't seem to know what they doing. Service is horrible. There's no number to call to get in contact with someone when you have questions. I think it's a waste of money to hire them. They don't know knowledge of things that they should know I find myself educating them read more

Due Diligence was not even in the equation 1) C-19 time and all people were seeking higher ground - lost sight of themselves and so did these laywers 2) A Doctor in Truckee made himself my primary care doctor without notifying me. He did this to be the WC Doctor 3) He damaged the case 4) These lawyer's never asked the question where did he come from - who is this person? 5) Patients Rights told me I had no rights ( any back up from these people? --NO! 6) No demand for a QME 7) In fact the Doctor sent me to PT without seeing a podiatrist - this is the lawyer's Duty of Care to me - they failed! 8) I told them I made own appointment with a Podiatrist and he said he could tell how bad it was with out CAT scan - most likely torn tendons and micro fractures --- and I was sent to PT - no one understood this in the medical staff -- none of this was addressed by these lawyers -- talk about malpractice and fraud ( think of the numbers!) but hey we all we running to get what we could - panic mode and America - Take it all and run! LIKE TP! Now the quest is did the Doctor Double Bill? Did he get a kick back? Duty of Care will this doctor is a Predator I look for lawyers who help me and protect me not give the opposing team the gun and bullet to shoot me with - Metaphorically speaking and then reload to finish me off read more

Worst representation, I've ever retained. You are definately rolling the dice with these guys. They're late for everything. from court dispositions to telephone appointments. To finding you adequate doctors to evaluate your injuries. You'd probaly be better off representing yourself if they're your only options. read more

Worst lawyer I've ever had . Left me hanging no compensation for me. Doc. Dismiss my case so my job stopped paying me. I had no clue,I did what they said my qme said I need to see other specialist nand Amaxon denied. I can't walk get super dizzy snd pain in neck area So I guess have to live like this. Can't work cause ill fall it's just so unbelievable that I'm out of work in pain and stuck living in streets cause I can't pay no job. Pick other lawyers to help read more

My medical bill was not paid my lawyer didn't do his job! I had a horrible experience with them. After one year my medical bill is not paid by my workers comp insurance and they did nothing to fix it and already went to collection!!! I left a review months ago and the owner of this law firm called me and requested me to delete my review and he reassured me to fix this issue but nothing was done since and my bill already in collection! I will file a legal action and will do everything I can to get justice. Just choose another lawyer if you want your case to be closed successfully. My lawyer name was Mark Thuesen and he was extremely rude every time I spoke with her and always cut me off when I was trying to explain to him my situation read more

Pacific Workers - They say they are following up but truth is nobody did anything!!! - Personal Injury Law Near Me - Oakland, California

See all

Zero Stars. i have not received any response or call back to my multiple calls/emails to the case manager Priscilla Barquet, attorney Iana Zadneprovskaia, nor the senior contact - Bilaal kassem. I would not recommend this firm to anyone. read more

Don't believe the 5 star reviews because those were bribed. They send out emails asking you to review them in order to win Safeway gift cards. I mean, even an idiot can figure out they're hustling for 5 star reviews. Other clients and reviewers here have also confirmed this scheme. Anyway, I chose medical treatment for life as I have a permanent disability since 2018. Which means the case is open, but shadily, I received a goodbye package from them in 2021 closing my case after they received the settlement money. Strange. Dr can't get workers comp insurance to approve medical treatments and told me that I need legal intervention...so my lawyer has not been helpful at all. Mind you, I still have a ton of acupuncture, chiropractor, and myofascial treatments left. read more

Pacific Workers helped/protected me during my workers compensation journey. They were friendly, helpful, patient, and professional from the beginning in representing me. They kept me informed and walked me through the process every step of the way. Thank you for all your work to assure I had a fair and equitable result. I'm very happy with the service and outcome thanks to Pacific Workers. Thank you for everything. Sincerely, Tom read more

In my 20s, when I had a career ending injury with the San Francisco Ballet, I made the mistake of winging my WC case w/o an attorney. As a result I got a pretty lousy deal. This time, when I got injured again (in a high volume computer data entry job) in my 40s, I didn't make the same mistake and had a much better result. Some of the less positive reviews I read here seem to ignore the fact that the system is in many ways rigged and not particularly favorable to injured workers. The attorneys do the best they can within the sharp limitations imposed by the system. But after going through workers comp several times I can say that you definitely need an attorney to navigate the complicated (though in some ways quite formulaic) WC system. That way you can maximize your chances of getting things like a decent settlement, enough temporary disability payments, a proper diagnosis, enough therapy, and documents which can later be used to obtain state benefits if your recovery or injury process lasts longer than your WC case. Plus - while you recover from an injury you definitely need the peace of mind of knowing someone else is dealing with the bureaucratic paperwork & the insurance company's attempts to undermine your case. It's a great weight off your shoulders!. It also puts you in a better position to deal with your employer and any of their attempts to do something outside of the law. As of 2022, the state of California caps Worker's Compensation attorney's fees at 15% contingency, which is a very good deal and better than other states. Zachary Kweller (my attorney in this case) was great to work with: sharp, clear-spoken and knows how to think on his feet. He may come across a little bit stern at first, but he's definitely on your side & will help you. Anyway, he gave me some very useful suggestions during the deposition. He was an adjuster in the past, so he definitely knows the system from both sides. However, even with his help you still need to make some decisions yourself that may affect your case positively or negatively! For example, during my deposition (which took place 200 days after my injury) , Zachary asked me if I wanted him to negotiate a settlement right there and then. I decided to wait, which turned out to be the right decision, as medical tests led to further findings that increased the rating of my case, which then ended up lasting almost 3.5 yrs from injury to settlement. This additional time clarified the nature of my condition for myself, my doctors, & even for the insurance, which demanded additional QM evaluations and extended my therapy & payments. In retrospect I think it was a good thing that my case lasted this long, as practically no stone was left unturned. Time & patience can work in your favor! Also, the paralegals and folks working directly with me via text, phone and email were super helpful: very knowledgeable and quick to respond to inquiries or forward concerns to the attorneys. Pacific Workers is an excellent company to work with. read more

10/23/23 UPDATE! Things started getting out of hand with my current doctors office and and I have been left with no medical care for several weeks. One phone call to Priscilla at Pacific Workers and BAM! She is ON IT! She called the doctors office right there with me on the phone and got the ball rolling again. I cannot say enough about this Firm. They all are so kind and understanding but also aggressive when it's needed. I would give 10 stars just for Priscilla alone. Given everyone on the team, I would give 100 stars!! read more

We had a wonderful experience hiring this firm for my family member's Workers Comp injury. From a smooth onboarding to getting our various questions answered throughout the last year-plus, everything went very well, and we ultimately received a settlement that exceeded our expectations. When we first started reaching out, I honestly get the feeling that a lot of firms just wanted to rush us through the process to get their legal fees, but Pacific Workers showed us time & again that they really do care and took their time so that we constantly understood what our options were, what the status of the case was, and what our next steps were. Major thanks to Ray Tadjbakhsh, Roy & the rest of their legal team for a job extremely well done!! read more

I had an awful experience with Pacific Workers. They have been representing me for my workers comp claim for almost 2yrs. I've have several attorneys but the most recent was Yuvanna Davis who has assistants handle everything and they don't know what they're doing and apparently no one is checking to make sure things are done properly or that correct information is provided when a question is asked. The lack of knowledge of the assistants coupled with ineffective assistance from counsel caused my pay to be delayed as well as reimbursements. After dealing with incompetence and one inconveniencing error after the next I finally got fed up and filed a complaint with the Office of Chief Trial Counsel. Instead of improvement on communication and providing accurate information when questions are asked they didn't take responsibility the attorney sent a letter notifying me that they would no longer be representing me since I was not happy with the service . I've never had experienced such poor customer service from someone who is supposed to be a professional. Worst experience ever. read more

I have spoken to my Lawyer twice in the last 8 months. The first time I spoke to him was about my concerns about the care provider I was seeing and the lack of care I was receiving. Raised his voice at me because he was frustrated with all the questions I had. 2nd was for my deposition. Other than that, I have not spoken to my team. Absolutely NEGLIGENT when it comes to communication or urgency.All the doctor's I speak with of P.W all have negative things to say about the firm. I am living it. Only went with them because I was in a rush. ALL emails go unanswered, even by the CEO who I have emailed before and have gotten no response. They say to call them back to fix this, and when I do, everyone is busy. DO NOT GO WITH THIS FIRM. AVOID LIKE YOUR EX WIFE ON A SATURDAY NIGHT. WILL BE AND AM FILING COMPLAINTS WITH BBB AND THE BAR. WILL UPDATE. read more

I always have to call them and follow up with the office with any changes at my job they never called me and tell tell me what's going on in my case. I send emails and no one never respond I feel like I don't have attorney on the case and that's the sad part. I don't think I'll use them again when my case is over. read more

My attorney is Le Trinh and she is amazing but her team is whom I speak to the most. Monica is so understanding and takes time to connect with you and find what it is you need. During any hard time you may need an attorney, their respect and dedication to their client is what you need. I love the fight they have on my behalf due to my case has been a difficult one but not once they have given up! I love they have a texting system and back to you fairly quick. And making an appointment is pretty easy. They stay on top of your case so much it feels like your the only case they're working and they hold you to your obligations to your case as well. If your looking for a good team to fight for you Pacific Workers is that team. read more

I question all the positive reviews they have on here. My experience with PWC is completely different from everyone else. They were very slow to follow-up and did not walk me thru anything. In fact, the whole time I felt alone and thought they were working against me. Any meetings that I had with them were canceled without any prior notice and this was last year before covid so no excuses on their part. The last call I got from them was from the lawyer telling me to take whatever lowball settlement was offered, which I did. It should had not been that way. I wish I would had went somewhere else. My whole case was a nightmare and they made it worse! read more

I was injured last year at work. At first I was hesitant to hire an attorney because I have known nothing about hiring a attorney or about it the laws system. I contacted Pacific Worker for legal help in my worker comp case out good faith and I spoke with attorney Bilal Kassem and I was treated very kindly and very professionally. attorney Bilal Kassem we're very knowledgeable and were able to put my mind to ease and he assign an attorney for me in the first phone call that I contacted Pacific worker. They were fast in responding to my question and concern. Attorney Iana zadneprovskaia and her team Ms. Priscilla, Mr. Luis and Ms. Katia we're responsive and were able to get my medical treatments and my worker comp benefit going within months after my injury has happened. First of all let be real attorney or not gods they cannot read your mind they only could go on whatever information you gave them. They cannot magically make runs smoothly in your case. because when you hire an attorney your company can I hire their attorney. It had to go through a process and process take time sometime it can be frustrating. But worker comp case take time to resolve, and sometime it can be challenging it's case by case basis. It is wishful thinking if you think that your company is not going to hire a lawyers when you hire a lawyer and everything can run smoothly for you and you got a lawyer it doesn't work like that the maybe in a perfect world. read more

I chose Pacific because they are close to my home. I thought this would be convenient as far as meeting with my lawyer. I have never met my lawyer in person. I actually never even talked with him until my deposition day. At 8 am deposition day i started receiving phone calls and texts basically telling me to log onto zoom. My paper work said 9 am meeting, 10 am deposition, with a contact call the day before, which didn't happen. Upon logging on i went to my car for privacy', due to thin walls nosy neighbors. This apparently was a problem for my attorney, he said that raises huge red flags as a attorney. Which i found judgmental, and insulting. Needless to say i returned the same energy and felt distracted during my deposition. This was a unsettling situation you don't want to be in. My lesson: Never retain a lawyer unless you've met in person, seen the office, shook hands and read their ratings. Once you're in it's very difficult to have a different lawyer take your case, they know this and now so do you. Be very picky, WC law is complicated and you need to feel cared for. I can't say this about PWC. Most communication has been via text with assistants. If you want a lawyer you'll never meet, this is your place. I will update rating when my case is complete. Don't rush into your case, take the time and find the right attorney for you. Shop around, a consultation doesn't mean you have to accept their services. read more

I would like to take a moment to say I'm very blessed because I'm being repersented by pacific workers they are truly the best! Since day #1 they been here for me ! i truly appreciate my team lana Zadneprouskaia,priscilla Barquet and katia Vidal thank you guys from the bottom of my Heart!!! sincerely Alfonso Ochoa read more

If I could give NO I would ‍My final straw was after the Company cost me months of being in limbo as they claimed "no new news..." After I told them a request for surgery was placed in February please check up on it and they didn't... In May I asked my for a new orthopedic surgeon as I had heard nothing... And was sick of the limbo. Around June after I get a new dr I get something in the mail that stated the underwriter needed more information from the last orthopedic surgeon... ‍ It was dated in Feb. But again it didn't have my unit # so since it didn't have my full address on it... it was delayed... If they did what I asked I would have been able to save 5 months in workers Comp hell. Stay away... They don't respond. I fired them. Asked for them to send my file but of course they sent proof I let them go but not my file... DON'T TRUST or waist your time. Ironically I kept telling them that my underwriter was known for not putting the full address on paperwork... With repetitive requests for my unit number to be added... They continue to not take that into consideration... Even After they moved... That they shouldn't just wait for paperwork to arrive... They should have been proactive. But they didn't care. Now I continue to pay the price. Now my work is not giving me hours at work, underwriter is not paying and I'm just screwed... Worst lawyers ever. STAY AWAY from them. read more

Escuche de Pacific workers por un amigo, y el grupo de trabajo que me han asignado es muy bueno. Gracias Elizabeth y Andrea por su trabajo. read more

I was injured in a rear end collision. Semi truck hit me at stoplight and caused back, neck and brain injuries. I had an attorney out of LA for a year and they didn't do much of anything. Since changing to PWC I have been able to get the attention my case needs. My attorney Michael Ulrich, Jazmin and another young lady on their team work hard to ensure I can focus on getting better. Bottom line if you need a WC attorney who will fight for you call PWC today. read more

Since my last review was deleted, I'll say how I feel about the service and handling of my case another way--disappointing, insulting and discriminatory. read more

My Lawyer is Micheal Ullrich. He was great. He really looked out for me and worked hard to get me what I wanted. Ot was not easy because the insurance company was trying to play hard ball. He didn't give up. He called me on time answered all my questions and was very patient when he explained things to me. He listened to what I wanted and went after it. I would recommend him and his firm to family and friends. read more

I want to thank my Attorney Lana Zadneprovskaia and her team for supporting me during my case against my company. I sustained an injury at work but continued to work and did not seek treatment at the time of injury. When my Manager wrote up the report of my injury he conveniently left off all the complaints of pain I reported to him. I even had a conference call with Managers throughout my company to go over the events leading up to my injury and they also failed me. They assured me if I needed to go to the doctor they would take care of me,but they never informed me that the statue of limitations to get medical care were one year. When I finally did go to the doctor because I could not walk without excruciating pain a year had gone by, therefore my companies insurance denied my worker's compensation claim.I was a little shocked but not surprised and suddenly felt hopeless. As a truck driver I would pass by a big billboard near Oracle arena in Oakland that advertised Pacific Workers compensation Law Center, so I decided to give them a call. I spoke with intake specialist Ramon who took all my information. Ramon got back to me and told me they would take my case and Lana would be my attorney. The whole process was nice because I never stepped foot in their office. I was able to send all documents via email and if I had a question I would text the team and they would get back to me with answers. I could go on and on ,but I'll just close by stating I won my case,and although I still had some I'll feelings about my incompetent manager who manages to keep his job somehow. I felt so good knowing Lana and the team had my back from the beginning, and I showed my company all I wanted to do was have them do the right thing which was to pay for my medical care. I would recommend Pacific Workers to anyone who's dealing with insurance companies that try to mistreat workers. Thank you all so much! read more

I want to thank Paul my attorney and his team for getting my case settle. Thank you to Monica Cendejas for all her patience and effort through out my case.

I used Pacific workers in my case and they did a great job they communicated with me and I ended up getting a great settlement.

This review is a long time coming! I must say that Pacific Worker's Compensation Law (Farber & Company) is very fortunate to have a hard working and determined attorney like Jason working for them. If you are Blessed enough to have Jason as your attorney you will see how hard he works to not only keep you informed of the "goings-on" of your case but more importantly you will see how he really puts in the time & effort to maximize the outcome of your case. He was always there to answer not only my questions but the questions of my Wife. He showed extreme patience with me with all my varied questions and really went the extra mile to put me at ease in some really dire circumstances that transpired thru out my case. I highly recommend Farber & Company as the "go to" attorneys for your workers compensation case. You will be glad as they will be fighting hard for you, utilizing their vast knowledge of the workers compensation system in order to make sure your case has a most favorable outcome!!!! read more

Worst decision I've ever made I was supposed to get a voucher because I wanted to retrain I couldn't go back to full duty and that's what I settled with. Unfortunately I didn't receive it and the attorneys have nothing to say about that situation. I will never refer them I would never use them again. And they were very rude , when I would call to ask a question they would just hang up, wouldn't answer the phone gave me bad information the whole 9. And the reason why I knew about the voucher was because the paralegal told me about it so I was like yeah great I will take that because I wanted to continue to work and keep my livelihood with some type of normalcy after being injured . They misinformed misled and lied to me. read more
