Passionate

My husband passed from Covid which he contracted at a business Conference. In California, if a spouse passes due to a Worker’s Compensation injury… The surviving spouse receives $250,000 from the board if the spouse makes less than 30,000 a year! I did not meet the income requirement And therefore ...did not automatically receive the death benefit. Attorney More negotiated a settlement with the insurance company's attorney. Without Attorney More I would’ve received nothing. Attorney More is a very passionate and considerate man who stands up and fights for what is right!

Keith & his team are phenomenal...could not ask for more!

We were referred by another attorney who did not handle workers comp clams. From our first meeting we knew we were in the right hands. They handled our every need and took care of our claim at every angle. The team worked together to make sure we were in great hands. Their knowledge, kindness, genuin...e concern for us and our family was so important to us. We met them at such a low place and they purposefully made sure we knew we would be taken care of. The entire team (Keith, Evan, Greg & Debi C.) was phenomenal and we are so happy to have them in our corner fighting for us. I can’t express how pleased I am with Keith….I don’t have there right words but I am so glad we chose him to be our attorney.

Best catastrophic injury Workers Comp Attoney

I have been a client of Bentley and More for 7 years now. They have been a true blessing to me since my workers compensation accident in 2012. I suffered an amputation at work which left me and my family in limbo and worried about our future. I was referred to Keith More from another highly respec...ted attorney that told me about how Mr. More was one of the best and most respected workers compensation attorneys in California. This was evident when I noticed all the awards and titles he had received when we first meet. He set me up with the resources and all the best doctors to handle my catastrophic case. After a couple of years into my recovery I started to have problems with denials for treatment by the insurance company. Mr. More diligently resolved the denials by challenging the insurance company in appeals court, and won every decision! Not only did I receive the treatment I needed but was also referred to the best doctors and specialists in Southern California. The insurance company always wanted to send me to their in-house doctors that were overbooked and didn't spend the time to address your true concerns. Their office was in constant communication with me to give me updates and to check on my health and well being. They were always quick to respond to any questions or concerns I had and even assigned me a personal work case manager that would meet me at the doctors' appointments to make sure I received the best care. When speaking with other patients about their workers compensation cases similar to mine, I found out that they typically always had experienced poor communication and were constantly denied much-needed services and prescriptions. Mr. More fought to get me the best and most advanced prosthetics on the market and procured a lifetime of medical benefits so I will never have to worry about my future. If not for Mr. More and his amazing staff I would be suffering the typical fates and failures the are so common amongst the workers compensation industry.

Simply THE BEST

If anyone is in the need of an attorney, Keith P. More and his Team are the team to go to. My husband suffered a severe accident at work not knowing what to do someone recommended Keith as the Best Workers Comp attorney he definitely is we are so grateful that he was recommended to us without him we ...don’t know where we would be or what to even do. He is honest and very devoted to his clients. We are so thankful that we have him representing my husbands workers comp case. You ARE SIMPLY THE BEST KEITH

Great Lawyer!

I have had a few Lawyers on this case and it was only until Keith took control that I felt like I could breath again! Keith and his staff kept me updated every step of the way only to be followed by results! Kieth was able to get the insurance company to release almost 50K in workers comp back pay as... soon as he took my case and most recently had made me able to collect my Disability payment, after the insurrance company tried to stop paying. Keith is a Life saver!
