If an LA Firm Made You Feel Like A Number
Get In Touch With Gilbert Fisher
There are many big firms from Los Angeles who advertise aggressively in the Fresno area, and it works. Many injured workers and their families go to them, only to find themselves later reaching out to Gilbert Fisher. Often, this is because they never actually get to talk to a compensation lawyer at those firms. They are passed along to a paralegal instead of receiving the personalized attention their case deserves.
While Mr. Fisher's firm isn't necessarily small—there are three compensation lawyers, and a staff of 10—our clients can always expect to meet personally with their lawyer. Meanwhile, choosing to work with Gilbert Fisher's firm means you don't have to travel out of town. You can consult with an attorney who is also your neighbor, in a city that is home to a workers' comp board. After having practiced in Fresno for more than 20 years, Mr. Fisher knows every judge well. He is a compensation attorney who has deep roots in the area, and has a first-hand knowledge of how important it is to feel heard and seen after a work injury.
If you have tried working with a big city firm only to feel like another inroad to a payday, we invite you to request a free consultation with us today.

View on GoogleTime May Be Running Out On Your Ability to Receive Compensation
Compensation laws include statutes of limitations that create strict deadlines for reporting an injury and filing a case. If you were hurt at work, you must notify your employment department within 30 days of receiving or becoming aware of the injury. You have a total of one year from the incident to file your workers' compensation claim.
Missing these deadlines likely means you permanently lose your ability to receive compensation benefits. However, there are some rare compensation cases in which Mr. Fisher can explore a deadline extension.
He can also draw upon his background as a compensation lawyer to determine when the ticking clock should have begun. For example, a repetitive strain injury may provide more leeway with deadlines since the clock does not start until you become aware that your injury was caused by work. The smartest thing to do is talk to our compensation attorney so he can determine deadlines and seek the compensation benefits you deserve.
Take Action Now To Avoid Missing Crucial Deadlines
You must report your work injury to your employer within 30 days of the accident. After taking that important first step, you have one year to file your workers' compensation claim. The sooner you take action—and the sooner you involve a compensation attorney—the better your chances of achieving an outcome that will allow you to move on with your life following a work injury. To request your free consultation, please call or write to our Fresno law firm.
We Can Appeal a Denied Compensation Claim
There are many cases in which an injured worker's claim is wrongfully denied by a compensation insurance provider. This often leads workers who suffered harm to believe their only avenue for compensation is a personal injury lawsuit against their employer. This is not the case.
Our compensation attorney can help you appeal your denied claim. Mr. Fisher's many years of handling compensation cases give him the knowledge to fight a denial successfully. Winning an appeal frequently results in swifter compensation than a personal injury lawsuit could achieve.
