Appellate

Workers Compensation Appeals - Don Featherstone, P.L.C.

Representing Small and Large Businesses in All Employment Law Matters

Workers’ Compensation appeals in California face overwhelming odds. Of the three to four thousand Workers’ Comp writs filed each year, only a few dozen are granted. Nonetheless, the preparation of a Workers’ Compensation appeal is valuable. To discuss the possibility of an employer-side Workers’ Compensation appeal, contact the Corona, California, law firm of Don Featherstone, P.L.C.

Our law firm has filed a great many appeals before the Workers’ Compensation appeals board in a special tribunal in San Francisco as well as before the California Court of Appeals and the Supreme Court. We prepare each case as if it will be appealed if a favorable outcome is not obtained early in the litigation process.

In addition to filing workers compensation writ of appeals, we advise employers on employment law matters, always keeping in mind that claims might be filed; lawsuits might be initiated; administrative denials may occur; and appeals may be necessary. This awareness adds to the sense of urgency with which we advise clients on how to avoid employment troubles that may lead to a series of legal procedures.

Don Featherstone, a member of the faculty of the University of California Law School, is well suited to an aggressive employment law practice which includes appellate work. Attorney Featherstone is frequently in demand as a speaker on employment law matters including: writing employee manuals, responding to OSHA violation citations, defending insurers in Workers’ Comp claims, responding to discrimination claims, subrogation, and appeals.

A deep awareness of the full distance that an employment law case may travel, and the two-pronged approach (encompassing both Workers’ Compensation appeals and other traditional employment law matters such as discrimination claims) translates to more comprehensive counsel and advocacy for all clients.
