Labor Code 132A discrimination Defense Law Firms Attorneys Lawyers Practice California Practice Areas
It is the declared policy of this state that there should not be discrimination against workers who are injured in the course and scope of their employment. This is codified under Labor Code Section 132a. This type of claim is not insurable and is alleged directly against the employer.
Laughlin, Falbo Levy & Moresi LLP attorneys are experienced in defending employers against such claims. This subset of workers’ compensation defense requires maintaining close and frequent contact with the employers, working with employers’ managers and supervisors as well with any percipient witnesses or other persons that may be necessary in the defense of the claim. Throughout the litigation of all phases of disputes involving Section 132a, LFLM attorneys directly advise and guide employers to resolution of the claim as quickly and efficiently as possible.
