Workers’ Compensation for Oakland Employees

Oakland’s workforce is diverse — from longshoremen at the Port of Oakland to warehouse, construction, and healthcare workers. When injuries happen, California law provides benefits for medical care, lost wages, and disability.


Levitz Legal Group helps Oakland employees navigate every stage of the workers’ compensation process:


  • Filing claims accurately and on time.
  • Challenging denied or delayed benefits.
  • Handling serious and willful misconduct cases.
  • Coordinating with doctors and Qualified Medical Evaluators (QMEs).


We are familiar with the Oakland Workers’ Compensation Appeals Board and ensure your claim moves forward smoothly and effectively.

Personal Injury Representation in Oakland

From heavy freeway traffic on I-580 and I-880 to pedestrian activity near downtown and Lake Merritt, accidents are a daily risk in Oakland. Levitz Legal Group represents clients in all types of personal injury cases, including:


  • Car, truck, and motorcycle accidents.
  • Pedestrian and bicycle injuries.
  • Slip and fall accidents at stores or worksites.
  • Dog bites and animal attacks.

We handle negotiations with insurers and, when necessary, litigation in Alameda County courts. Our experience with complex and high-value cases means your claim will be built with detail and determination.

Local Insight and East Bay Reach

Our attorneys understand the unique challenges of Oakland cases — from navigating local traffic patterns and construction zones to understanding how East Bay employers and insurers operate. We work with medical providers such as Highland Hospital and local rehabilitation centers to ensure clients receive proper care and documentation.
