Diane Mendoza II

Diane Mendoza II works on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing unless you win. If your case is successful, the attorney's fee is a percentage of your settlement or award — typically 15–25% in California. There are no upfront costs and no fees if you don't recover.

Diane Mendoza II handles all types of workers' compensation cases in California, including Back and Spine Injuries, Workers Compensation, Denied Claims, denied claims, permanent disability ratings, and workers' comp appeals.

In California, you generally must report your injury to your employer within 30 days and file a formal claim within 1–2 years of the injury date. These deadlines are strict — missing them can cost you your benefits. Contact Diane immediately after any workplace injury.

Yes — claim denials are one of Diane Mendoza II's specialties. Insurance companies routinely deny valid claims hoping workers won't fight back. With 26 years of experience in California workers' comp law, Diane knows exactly how to appeal denials and fight for the benefits you're entitled to.
