Proudly Serving Injured Workers Like You Across Northern California - If you were hurt at work, count on a board-certified specialist as your trusted adviser and advocate. At Leep, Tescher, Helfman and Zanze in Redding, California, the legal team believes that most injured workers are best served by choosing someone who is:
Certified as a specialist in workers’ compensation – To achieve this cert
ification, a lawyer must pass a rigorous examination, demonstrate a high level of experience, complete at least 45 hours of continuing education and be rated favorably by his or her peers. Mr. Helfman has over 20 years of experience in assisting injured workers after a workplace accident. Up to date on the law – Workers’ compensation regulations are always changing, so it’s critical to choose a lawyer who keeps abreast of the changes. Helfman attends nearly every educational seminar offered by the California Applicants’ Attorneys Association (CAAA), reads about new case law and pays attention to pending legislation. In fact, he is president of the Shasta Chapter of the CAAA and regularly speaks at their statewide meetings. Exclusively focused on injured workers – If you have a workers’ comp claim, it makes sense to pick an attorney who limits his or her practice to this particular area of law. You don’t want someone who spends the majority of his or her time on family law cases, criminal law cases or other matters. In addition to focusing exclusively on workers’ compensation, Mr. Helfman advocates in the political arena as well, striving to convince the state legislature to do what’s best for injured workers. Accessible and responsive – Other qualifications don’t mean much if you can’t get ahold of your lawyer. The legal team at LTHZ Law makes client communication a priority. You can count on receiving personal, responsive service. Call the Redding office at (530) 287-6674 or contact the firm online to learn more. The initial consultation is free.
