WORKERS' COMPENSATION
Sustaining a work-related injury can be a daunting experience. In most cases, injured employees are entitled to various benefits. Unfortunately, insurance companies wrongfully deny benefits to injured employees. At Melkonyan Law Firm, we not only ensure that our clients obtain the best available medical treatment for their injuries, we aggressively fight for all rights and benefits available to the injured employee so that they are able to maintain their livelihood while recovering from their injuries. These benefits also include:
​
-
Reimbursement for medical expenses
-
Short term / temporary disability
-
Permanent Disability
-
Employer discrimination for filing a worker’s compensation claim.
At Melkonyan Law Firm, we represent employees who have sustained all kinds of work-related injuries, including specific injuries, injuries that have developed over a period of time, and psychological injuries. We provide our clients with a roadmap to recovery, assist them throughout the entire claim process, and ensure that they obtain the maximum compensation for their work-related injuries.
EMPLOYMENT LAW
California and Federal laws protect employees from certain acts by their employers. Despite these protections, employers often improperly treat or discriminate against their employees. Employees who fall victim to these illegal employment practices are often unaware of how to address the problem and remain silent in fear of losing their job. At Melkonyan Law Firm, we counsel our clients on their employment rights and devise a unique, case-by-case approach to each employment claim, including:
​
-
​​Pregnancy discrimination
-
Disability discrimination
-
Wrongful termination
-
Sexual Harassment
-
Discrimination based on AGE, race, gender, sexual orientation, ethnicity, or religion.
