When an injury or medical condition keeps you from working, the benefits you receive can play an important role in protecting your health and financial security. But getting those benefits is not always simple, especially when a claim is delayed, denied, or disputed.
Walters & Zinn, Attorneys at Law, has represented injured and disabled workers for more than 30 years. We serve clients throughout Sacramento County, helping you pursue Workers’ Compensation and Social Security Disability benefits and protecting your rights when problems arise with your claim.
Workers’ Compensation claims and Social Security Disability claims operate on two separate legal systems. Workers’ Compensation disputes may proceed through the California Division of Workers’ Compensation and Workers’ Compensation Appeals Board, which maintains a district office in Sacramento. Social Security Disability claims follow the federal process and may involve reconsideration, a hearing before an administrative law judge, or additional appeals.
At Walters & Zinn, we handle the legal work while keeping you involved in the decisions that affect your claim. We gather the necessary information, respond to disputes, prepare you for hearings, and represent you through appeals when necessary. If questions or problems develop, you have an experienced legal team ready to address them and keep your claim moving forward.
