This video reviews dismissing your attorney, or changing attorneys, in workers’ compensation. If you are an injured worker with a California injury, and don’t have an attorney, this video is intended to help provide an overview of workers’ compensation topics so you can better represent yourself.
At times, people feel like their attorney isn’t helping. Often times it is just that the entire workers’ comp system is frustratingly slow. However, at times there can be problems and clients can desire to fire their attorney and proceed without counsel, or fire their current attorney and retain new counsel. This video goes through some common situations that arise and reviews options.
