The court determines our fees, which are typically 15% of the recovery amount, making it contingent on the settlement size.

The Law Offices of Dennis A. Dascanio Firm Overview
- Q. Can I pursue a lawsuit for failed back surgery and faulty device after a 1996 work accident?
- A: Dear injured worker,
Thank you for reaching out. Since you previously settled your workers’ compensation claim, that matter is closed and no longer within the scope of workers’ comp benefits. However, if your current issues are due to failed hardware from your 1996 surgery, you may have a potential products liability claim. I recommend consulting with an attorney who specializes in medical device or products liability cases, as that falls outside the area of workers’ compensation law. Justia is a great resource.
Sincerely,
Dennis Dascanio
- Q. Considering workers' compensation for mental health overload as a Learning Trainer in California. No action taken by employer after reporting.
- A: Dear Injured Worker,
Based on the information provided, it appears that your mental stress may be work-related and, given that you have been employed with your current employer for at least six months, you may be eligible for Workers’ Compensation benefits. It is important that you retain any documentation showing that you reported this condition to your employer. Properly filing a Workers’ Compensation claim under these circumstances is essential to protect your rights and ensure access to benefits that might not otherwise be available to you. I wish you all the best moving forward.
Sincerely,
Dennis Dascanio
- Q. Can my wife claim half of my workers' compensation settlement during divorce in California?
- A: Dear injured worker,
I am sorry to hear about your personal situation. The good news is that as a general rule workers compensation benefits are your separate property and not subject to community property distribution in a divorce. I recommend you confirm this with your divorce attorney or you seek consultation with a divorce attorney to be sure that your personal situation is not an exception.
Sincerely,
Dennis Dascanio
