California (August 16, 2021) - The California Division of Workers' Compensation opened their public locations for in-person services again after the effects of the coronavirus pandemic. The locations will be at most district offices throughout the state, offering experts to assist you in filing your claim and answering your questions.
E-filing services are still available on the California Division of Workers' Compensation's website. The state still advises you to use this online tool, if possible, as there are limited staff members available. If necessary, you can contact the call center to have your questions answered too.
The only district that will not have in-person services is Eureka. If you are unable to e-file, you can visit the Santa Rosa location. Again, the call center is available at (908) 383-4522.
Any conferences and trials will occur via conference calls for now. These will include adjudication and expedited hearing as well. Clients will receive the number to call ahead of the time of the trial.
The California Division of Workers' Compensation operates under the California Department of Industrial Relations. The latter office came into existence almost 100 years ago, in 1927, to protect the well-being of the 18 million employees in the state. The department also upholds all employers to the laws set out in front of them, including workers' compensation laws.
Rawa Law Group is also available to navigate your questions and claim in the workers' compensation process. A workers' compensation lawyer Santa Ana-based of this firm can help you find results so that you can potentially avoid a trial. Even if you do have to go to a hearing, they will listen to your needs, present the evidence, and defend your case every step of the way. These benefits help to alleviate your stress so you can focus on healing your injuries and illnesses.
