I have experience to handle complex cases. I am used to cases that are litigated. I never roll over but fight.

Workers Compensation 30%

I have been representing injured workers since 1988. An important part of my work is making sure the evaluations by the doctors are complete and fair to the injured worker. If an offer to settle is unfair, a trial is the way to go.

Criminal Defense 20%

I used to handle public defender conflicts. The District attorney has a high volume of cases. Setting cases for trial changes the game and can result in a dismissal.

Absolutely wonderful

While I’ve never used Mr Mandabach for legal help, he did answer a question I had posted on AVVO Absolute professional. Helped answer my question and offered some sound advice. I can only imagine how fantastic he is, in legal representation

Posted by Lucinda R. | March 03, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Workers Compensation

Outstanding Workers Comp & Social Security Attorney

I retained Mr. Carl Mandabach to represent me against my employer of 20 years in an ugly Workers Compensation fight in 2012. He was highly professional, knowledgeable in the Law and demonstrated strong work and moral ethics. Mr. Mandabach presented a forceful and persuasive argument under extremely... difficult circumstances. He consistently fought for me and his diligence resulted in a sizable settlement for our side. Again, in 2014 Mr. Mandabach represented me when I had a dispute with the Social Security Administration. He worked my case and stuck with it until he succeeded in securing permanent disability status for me. This “win” was a life-changing event for me and happened because of his caring and expertise dealing with the Social Security system. I consider Mr. Carl Mandabach one of the finest, most competent attorneys in the greater Sacramento area and would not hesitate to call on him for legal assistance in the future.

I specialize on cases that can be difficult. Lucinda had a tough case but I set a deposition of her supervisor and it broke the case open. Lucinda was a nice client. Just because a case is tough, does not mean client cannot be nice if the attorney works to communicate.

REVIEW

Mr. Mandabach is one of the best attorneys I know. He took my case when none of the big shots would take it.. And he won my case, I would refer Mr. Mandabach to any person.

"Although he is fairly new to Avvo, it is immediately obvious that the answers of Mr. Mandabach are accurate, full of analysis, and customized to the needs of the Avvo askers. These are exactly the qualities that every client would look for when hiring an attorney."

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Mandabach has been practicing in this area for nearly a quarter of a century and that is reflected in his knowledge of Workers Comp. law. He is also willing to travel outside of Sacramento County (if compensated for his time) so he can represent clients in numerous courts outside Sacramento."
