Since 1987, I have been dedicated to serving disabled workers as a Workers Compensation attorney. My commitment to the community drives me to ensure that my clients are well-informed about their rights, enabling them to navigate the complexities of the WC system effectively.
I understand the importance of connecting with competent doctors, as this is crucial for achieving favorable outcomes in WC cases.
My firm has earned respect from judges and defense offices alike. More importantly, my clients have expressed high satisfaction with the outcomes of their cases.
The court determines our fees, which are typically 15% of the recovery amount, making it contingent on the settlement size.
I offer free consultations, and my staff is bilingual, fluent in both English and Spanish.

The Law Offices of Dennis A. Dascanio Firm Overview
- Q. Can I file for workers' compensation after missing the deadline due to incarceration?
- A: Dear injured worker,
I am sorry to hear about your predicament. As a general rule incarceration is not a toll to the one year statue limitations for filing of a Workers' Compensation claim in California. There are rare exceptions such as mental or physical incapacity. If you believe you have one of these rare exceptions I suggest you immediately consult with a California workers compensation attorney.
Sincerely,
Dennis Dascanio
- Q. Can my employer mandate seeing PCP for workplace injury confirmation?
- A: Dear Injured Worker,
Access to medical care is fundamental in the California workers compensation system. Your employer generally cannot require you to see your Primary Care Physician (PCP) first for a work-related injury unless you pre-designated that doctor before the injury occurred. Otherwise, you typically must be treated by a provider in the employer’s Medical Provider Network (MPN). You may want to consult a workers’ compensation attorney to protect your rights.
Sincerely,
Dennis Dascanio
- Q. Involved in work-related accident, should I seek legal advice?
- A: Dear injured worker,
I’m very sorry for your injuries and that you are not receiving proper medical care. I strongly recommend you seek an attorney in your area to assist on your claim. That attorney will be familiar with the doctors and clinics near you and can ensure that you are being properly protected for your work injuries. I wish you the very best and strongly encourage you to seek local representation with an attorney that can handle both workers compensation at personal injury combined cases.
Sincerely,
Dennis Dascanio
