The firm works closely with each client to ensure that their interests are protected and their risk management and cost containment goals are met.

As part of our commitment to the community, the firm offers educational programs and training seminars that are custom tailored to keep clients up to date on the changes in the law and to provide information that can reduce overall costs.

The firm’s seasoned attorneys have expertise in all aspects of employer representation including defending workers’ compensation matters, wrongful termination (Labor Code §132(a)), serious and willful allegations (Labor Code §4553), pursuing fraudulent claims, subrogation and third party matters. The firm prides itself on its client communication and use of technology to manage the handling of files so as to maximize efficiency and reduce overall litigation expenses. Black and Rose was one of a handful of law firms chosen to test the Department of Workers’ Compensation’s Electronic Adjudication Management System (EAMS), a system that allows the electronic submission of documents to the WCAB.
