How much do attorneys charge for my California Workers’ Compensation SIBTF settlement?
I am considering filing a SIF or SIBTF claim on my own to save money. Is it worth hiring an attorney with an expertise in SIBTF? How do I find one and is the rate fixed/hourly or a percentage of my pension settlement?

Worker’s comp and SIBTF delay?
Looking to get advise on my current status with SIBTF. I finally, after so many years waiting for a SIBTF hearing got the date! Unfortunately, my lawyer did not send in paperwork on time and there for had to be taking off calender. This was many months ago. I have relentlessly tried to ask what happened or what do we do now but for some reason he wont answer my emails or phone calls. I have no idea if he resubmitted the paperwork, am I still in the program, I know absolutely nothing. Almost 5 months have passed and he will no longer speak with me. Furthermore he hasnt worked on my w/c case for sometime now.
I’m very close to finding another attorney to take over but how can I determine if I’m still in the SIBTF system , or at the back of the line so to speak.
