Injured worker experts will fight for your rights. FREE CONSULT. English/Spanish
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.

- Q. My employer refuses to pay me my sick time used during my two week notice period. Is it legal?
- A: Dear concerned employee,
I understand your frustration with not getting your PTO or sick time when requested. My specialty is in workers compensation and this falls outside of my specialty. Additionally there are other factors that could affect your rights. My recommendation is that you seek consultation with an employment law attorney that could answer your questions.
Sincerely,
Dennis Dascanio
- Q. Explanation needed for initialing page 7 of a C&R in a workers' comp case with concurrent wrongful termination suit.
- A: Dear concerned,
You are correct to be concerned that you do not prejudice any other claim you have against your employer. Initializing the boxes on page 7 of the compromise and release does not limit your ability to pursue a civil claim, however it can affect other discriminatory claims that you may have against your employer. It is highly recommended that you consult with your Employment Law Attorneys and seek guidance on how this can affect your current civil claim for wrongful termination.
Sincerely,
Dennis Dascanio
