THOUSAND OAKS OFFICE UPDATES:
2011-12-23
Oxnard WCAB to assist the Los Angeles WCAB with Lien Hearings:
Due to a backlog of more than 6,000 liens in the Los Angeles district office, the WCAB has moved liens to the Oxnard district office. This is expected to help relieve the pressure and resolve the numerous lien claims that are filed at the Los Angeles WCAB. Although the claims’ venue will still be listed as Los Angeles WCAB, the Oxnard judges will conduct the hearings.
The Oxnard WCAB will be sending hearing notices out to the parties as it places hearings on calendar.
The ATB Thousand Oaks office attorneys have been pleasantly surprised by the efficiency of the move of the liens to the Oxnard WCAB and by the rapid handling of the liens by the judges.
