California Workers' Comp Counsel for Former Pros
Your Career Took a Toll.
California Law Has Your Back.
Former professional athletes with a California connection may be owed lifetime medical care and a cash award for the cumulative trauma of their playing days. Alvandi Law Group reviews your career history at no cost — and we don't get paid unless you do.
Most Former Athletes Have No Idea.
California's workers' compensation system is one of the few in the country that recognizes the full physical cost of a professional sports career — long after the cleats come off.
You Might Still Qualify If…
- Your last game was more than three decades ago
- No single injury was ever written up in a team report
- You hung up the jersey years ago
- Your franchise was based out of state but barnstormed through California
- You've been told the window to file has closed
The Cumulative-Trauma Difference
Pro careers don't end with one bad hit — they end after thousands of them. California law specifically recognizes that gradual, repetitive damage as a workplace injury, with benefits that ordinary insurance and league programs rarely match.
It is not too late to look into it. Our team focuses on former pros, and a short conversation is enough for us to tell you whether it's worth pursuing.
