The Los Angeles, California, lawyers of Berger & Michelena possess a command of the legal terrain that is both strategic and practical. This command allows them to move your case forward diligently and confidently despite opposition from the insurance companies and even from your employer. With more than 100 years of combined experience, our firm's attorneys possess a comprehensive understanding of workers' compensation law.
Perhaps more important, they understand how that law is actually applied and practiced by the real people who work in our legal system: doctors, lawyers, judges and office staff. This kind of practical knowledge can sometimes mean the difference between winning and losing your case. The judgment of the firm's lawyers has been recognized by the other attorneys at the bar through various honors and chairpersonships. Perhaps the most important form of recognition, though, is that many attorneys refer some of their most complex cases to us because of our recognized ability in complex injury cases.
We can provide you with effective strategies regarding the legal dimensions of seeking medical care, dealing with the representatives for the insurance company and the representatives of your employer. In many cases, our firm's lawyers have dealt with these same people on many occasions. We understand how the legal process works on a very local and personal level.

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level
- - Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials
- - How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost
- - How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City
- - Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
