Modesto Workers’ Compensation Law Firm
Overview
Welcome to the Law Offices of Gary C. Nelson
Whether you suffered a serious injury on the job or you are no longer able to work because of a disability, you want the attorney protecting your rights to take time to understand your unique concerns. I am Modesto work injury lawyer Gary C. Nelson, and I am committed to injured workers throughout the Central Valley.
Located in an older neighborhood near downtown Modesto, my offices offer a comfortable environment in a residential and business neighborhood. Easily accessible, you will have no problem finding parking. Open during weekly business hours, I also offer a flexible appointment schedule for those who have difficulty seeing me during the work day.
Not only have I spent my entire legal career in Modesto, I have lived here my whole life. Before passing the bar, I worked for the canneries and other local businesses. I understand the economics of the area, and I understand the challenges facing working people. When you come to me with concerns about your ability to work, I understand what you are up against.
My main goal is to help my clients find solutions. I am not looking for a fight in court if a fair settlement that protects your immediate and long-term interests can be reached. Protecting the rights of the injured and disabled who are facing a number of different challenges, I handle all cases on a contingency basis. In all cases, I only get paid if your case has been successful.

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.
