Are there any good personal injury lawyers in the Bay Area willing to take on the Gov't?

Question

I worked for a Gov't contractor and got injured. Now they have refused to pay the medical bills, which are mounting up because of late fees, etc...

(Written for a friend who doesn't speak very good english and is having major difficulty finding help.)

I've called several lawyers who have refused my case saying they didn't want to tangle with the Gov't. Are there any lawyers, (in California's Bay area,) who might take on my case on a pay when we win basis? I've got all the relevant paperwork including the contract, etc...

Are there any other things I can do to solve this problem? Dep't of Labor doesn't cover this because it's a Gov't contractor, but, nobody else seems to cover it either, nor is anyone willing to direct me to the proper Dep't or procedure.

Sure would appreciate the help here. Thanks.

Answer 1

joubaur, It's unfortunate to hear about your situation. I was injured once when a car backed over my left foot at work. My company attempted to settle with me quickly because they knew it wasn't my fault. I called a recommended lawyer in my area who gave me useful advice and I was able to get a medium sized settlement to cover my insurance bills that weren't covered by my work insurance. I'd suggest you find a accident lawyer in your area. http://www.accidentlawyerlocator.com My injury lawyer was help me because they expect to make some money from any potential case. Try visiting a personal injury lawyer to see if they can help.



Heop everything works out.

You might try calling the local bar association. They usually have a lawyer referral service.
