About Us

FARRELL, FRAULOB & BROWN
A Professional Law Corporation


OUR HISTORY

Edward Farrell, who retired from practice in 2001, began representing injured workers in 1956. Since then, Farrell, Fraulob & Brown has continued to be one of the most respected law firms in Northern California. We represent injured workers at the Workers' Compensation Appeals Board with their claims against employers and insurance companies, to ensure they receive the benefits to which they are entitled. We assist disabled persons to appeal denials of Social Security Disability benefits, which in many cases are the only financial lifeline for these persons. We win the hard cases, because our attorneys and staff are highly knowledgeable, experienced, compassionate, and hard-working.

If you want to find the best surgeon for your back surgery, the best information will come from other physicians who have seen them all in action. If you want the best carpenter or the best plumber, the best piano tuner, or the best pizza maker, the best source of information comes from other carpenters, plumbers, piano tuners, and pizza makers. So it is with lawyers. Ask one who they think are the top attorneys – other than themselves – and they will give you a knowledgeable answer because they have seen them in action and they know who are the most effective.

FF&B is proud of the fact that its attorneys routinely are listed as the best lawyers by other lawyers and those who rate lawyers based on objective criteria. Accordingly, in nearly every lawyer rating source – everything from America’s Top Attorneys to the Sacramento News and Review reader “Best Of” voting, one or more of FF&B’s lawyers make the list.

FF&B is determined to be the lawyers that other lawyers recommend because they have demonstrated the highest degree of knowledge and have achieved the best results for their clients year in and year out. FF&B’s staff is experienced and competent. Two legal assistants are fluent in Spanish and all are knowledgeable regarding the field of law to which they are assigned. Each attorney is an expert in his or her speciality. Three attorneys are State Bar Certified Specialists in Workers’ Compensation.

FF&B is able to achieve success for its clients by associating itself with a network of physicians and other professionals who get the best results. If consultation with a physician in a different specialty is appropriate, FF&B knows who to consult. If other attorneys specializing in personal injury or medical malpractice are necessary, FF&B has already developed referral relationships with the very best attorneys in many different fields of law in California.
