The Law Offices of Bart L. Mehlhop has been exclusively devoted to workers' compensation in the Sacramento area since 1987. The Board of Legal Specialization of the State Bar of California has granted Mr. Mehlhop certified specialist status in this area of the law. Before workers' compensation, injured workers had to sue their employers to recover medical costs and lost wages. Lawsuits took months and sometimes years. Juries and judges had to decide who was at fault and how much, if anything, would be paid. Too often, the injured worker got nothing. It was costly, time consuming and unfair. Today, workers' compensation is faster and fairer. If you cannot work because of a job injury, workers' compensation pays your medical bills and provides money to help replace your lost income until you can return to work. Our office serves people in Sacramento, West Sacramento, Stockton, Davis, Vacaville, Fairfield, Lincoln, Modesto, Elk Grove, Colfax, Auburn, Wilton, Jackson, Lodi and surrounding Northern California areas. If you were injured at work and you need the assistance of a certified Sacramento workers compensation attorney, call Bart L.
