Hiden, Rott & Oertle, LLP

I endorse this firm. What particularly impressed me was they are personable, down to earth people, creative problem-solvers, they are articulate and can provide ongoing continuous support.

I cannot thank Michael Rott enough for everything he did for me during my workers’ compensation case. When I was injured and overwhelmed, Michael stepped in and immediately made me feel supported and protected. He truly listened to me, treated me with respect, and fought for me every step of the way. He explained everything clearly, kept me informed, and never made me feel like just another case. During one of the most stressful times of my life, Michael gave me peace of mind and confidence that I wasn’t alone. His dedication, compassion, and determination made all the difference in my outcome. I am beyond grateful for his hard work and highly recommend him to anyone who needs a strong, caring workers’ comp attorney. Sincerely, Charles Cooper.

My only regret in this review is that I'm not able to give these lovely people 10 or more stars! I was referred to Hiden, Rott & Oertle by our family attorney, after I was injured in a freak work accident, suffering a fractured skull, broken bones, a TBI(brain bleed) and short term memory issues among MANY other things. I was told these were the people that understood workplace injuries, especially Brain injuries. From the very beginning, Mr. Hiden and Mr. Rott, as well as paralegal Diana Ruvalcaba were always there to help me through every single step of this difficult process. Every single interaction I had with them was top notch! Whether I called, emailed or texted, they were always immediately responsive - and never treated me as if I was being an annoying worry wart with my incessant questions! With the short term memory problems I've had since my accident, I'm sure that I asked them the same questions repeatedly! Most importantly, they were able to make sure that I received the top notch medical care I now know I needed then and will need in the future. Your employer's insurer is only interested in getting rid of their liability (you) as quickly as they can and at as little cost to them as possible. Don't believe for even one second that they are there to help you or even care about you a little bit. They do not! Nobody from Hiden, Rott & Oertle ever made me a single outlandish promise like the firms you see in flashy advertisements every day. Don't go to an attorney because of their advertisements. Go to an attorney that doesnt have to advertise! A proven reputation is far better than expensive commercials, Gold chains and, big fake smiles. The fine attorneys at Hiden, Rott & Oertle are simply the best! The quiet confidence that they exude makes you realize that you made the right choice by retaining them. At the end of the day, they delivered a settlement far more generous than I ever expected or imagined. I'm now confident that I'll never worry about my future medical care or any of my other needs. Thank You!!

David Hiden’s responsiveness and efficiency while quickly closing my case is appreciated and has helped offer me some peace of mind during a difficult time. Thank you David, for helping lift me up when I was feeling knocked down. Ya done good.

I spoke to this firm about a sexual assault lawsuit where I have a vagina injury. The attorney I spoke to asked me inappropriate questions. This firm is racist. The lawyer I spoke to asked what race I was and the race of the person I’m suing. I said that I am half black half white. He then asked me what race I looked and said if I look whiter it would be better for me in a trial. He also said that the only thing that would matter is who the jury likes more.

I got a referral to Hiden, Rott & Oertle from my union for a work comp case and it was one of my luckiest days ever. Attorney, Brian Dougherty represented me and was stellar throughout. His communication is beyond amazing. I could text him directly and he would respond with an hour if not right away. If we needed to talk, he always made time for it. His assistant is also on top of everything and responds to questions and requests very promptly. Work comp is a labyrinth of laws and without good guidance, you can be lost for a long time. I can say that Mr. Dougherty and Hiden, Rott & Oertle got me the best medical care, a great surgeon and a fair settlement. I know this better than to be expected result because a co-worker was injured about a month after me with a similar shoulder injury. He had no representation and I can say, conclusively, my treatement was better, my result better and my case settled before his. Without Mr. Dougherty's help none of this would have been the case. I cannot heap enough praise on Brian Dougherty and Hiden, Rott & Oertle. My deepest grattitude for their hard work on my behalf.

My wife had a challenging case involving a closed head traumatic brain injury. Not just any attorney was up to the task, as brain injury cases require significant experience from the lawyer. We found that lawyer in Michael Rott at Hiden, Rott & Oertle. We faced many challenges, and the defendants were beyond stubborn, but Mr. Rott was unrelenting in our case and tried every strategy possible to get us to a settlement worthy of the injuries suffered. Most importantly, Mr Rott and his entire firm cared about us and our family, going out of his way to make sure we were happy and that our concerns were heard. In the end, we got a fair settlement and can now move on with our lives. We highly recommend Michael Rott!

Hiring Mr. Michael Rott was the best decision I have made in my life. I had a catastrophic work accident. And God brought Mr. Rott into my life to help me with my worker's comp case. Mr. Rott's professionalism, work ethic, and dedication towards helping his clients is second to none. Mr. Rott was there for me every step of the way. He help me get all the medical equipment, and treatment I need it. Mr. Rott is very caring, responsible, and respectful with his clients. He will answer your calls, text messages and emails in a very fast manner. Mr. Rott is a hard worker and a fighter for his clients and I mean that. If you want an attorney that really fights for the injured worker hire Mr. Michael Rott. He will settle your case fast. He's the best attorney in California.

This guy Alex who is answering the phone has very poor communication skills. I have been a client of this law firm 3 times and the way this guy refused to even listen what I had to say was extremely unprofessional and rude. Totally disrespectful person should not be working for a law firm.

I've injured at work and became disable and I was extremely disappointed and very unhappy with the service I've received. I had a terrible experience with Mr. Matt Blancato and workers compensation lawyers were gossiping I was really frustrated to find out there were hidden things (EDD, SSDI<SSI) it felt dishonest and misleading every time provided not clear information poor communication. Definitely conflicting I received an incorrect settlement and the whole process was confusing. I would not recommend this law firm to anyone. it was bad!
