CHAIN | COHN | STILES is Kern County’s leading plaintiffs’ personal injury and workers’ compensation law firm. Our attorneys have represented clients from all over the San Joaquin Valley and throughout California for 85 years. We concentrate our efforts on protecting the rights of individuals who have been seriously injured due to the negligent, reckless or intentional conduct of another. If you have been injured due to the fault of another, you have the right to hold that person or entity accountable, no matter how rich or powerful that person or entity may be. At Chain | Cohn | Stiles, we pride ourselves on having the reputation and resources necessary to overcome the most difficult challenges while achieving the best possible results for our clients.

OUR PROMISE TO YOU

Unlike most other personal injury and workers’ compensation law firms – and especially unlike out-of-town lawyers who go through great lengths to appear as local – our attorneys provide personal care in our clients’ cases. We believe firmly that providing personal attention to our clients is one of the most important things that we do. When you first make an appointment, you will meet with the lawyer who will be handling your case. From that first meeting until your case is resolved, you will receive ongoing communication from your attorney, and personal care from our entire office. We never pass our client’s cases off to paralegals and assistants. And when you call Chain | Cohn | Stiles and want to speak with your lawyer, you get to speak with your actual lawyer. This dedication to personal service is one of the things that makes us unique in the world of personal injury and workers’ compensation law, and we promise to give this personal attention to you.

If you or someone you know has been seriously injured due to the fault of another, please contact us immediately, so that we can help guide you and your loved ones through what might be one of the most difficult times of your life.
