After meeting other workers compensation attorneys I was referred to Cheryl Wallach, and could not have been happier. After our first meeting it was clear she is extremely knowledgeable, upfront and honest and had my best interests in mind. Cheryl was with me every step of the way, providing me with constant updates on the progress of my case, while setting realistic expectations for the outcome. She is understanding and empathetic, and her staff is very responsive and efficient. read more

Look Somewhere Else This Firms Negligence is what they should be known for I wish I could give them 0 stars!!! I wasn't going to write a review but the results I am seeing with the new firm representing me is like night & day. I was referred to Ford & Wallach has been representing me since mid 2022 and it's the end of 2025 No results Cheryl Wallach Attorney & Soledad Vasquez are externally hard to work with from returning calls, to communication to the way they carry them self's with clients they have no Empathy or consideration for clients. Soledad would make me feel like I was bugging her if I could get a hold of her, and I was an active client very poor attitude. And that is with all staff you don't feel like you're in good hands. To see any request accomplished I would have to call the firm all the time chasing verifications, payments, authorizations It felt like they were working more for the work comp insurance company than me and I hired them to help I had a better chance dealing with the work comp adjusters myself I feel. Don't waste your time or sanity with this law firm worst mistake having this firm represent me for the past 3 in a half years and no type of result hope this helps anyone seeking help with with your work comp case, it's stressful and this firm adds more stress then help. Seek Legal Help With Another Firm...!!! read more

I was represented for two years under a workers comp claim, never receiving any treatment, in an endless process of depositions-- then my assigned attorney Cody left the firm and Cheryl Wallach took over the case. I was soon terminated by UCLA due to retaliation and my disability. She constantly denied their motives and always sided with my employer in conversation. A month later she sought out a judge to get released so she could drop me. Sweet gal. ***Avoid Ford & Wallach at all costs. Especially Cheryl. Horrific experience. read more

Cheryl Wallach and her team worked very hard on my workers comp case and we won. I highly recommend her for doing a fantastic job for me and never giving up. Not 5 but 10 Stars!!! read more

They were my representation for a workman's comp case. 0/10 do not recommend. They will never return calls or emails . Expect bare minimum.

Update Yesterday was the case between Ford & Wallach and myself because the firm no longer wanted me as a client. The judge removed the firm. After approximately 7 years, I found out the case is still in "discovery of evidence" and 2 injuries are accepted. More importantly, I filed a complaint with the California Bar Association against the attorney for not communicating with me. Simple things like making appointments takes them 6 months. As a client, always remember the California Bar Association is there to hold attorneys accountable if needed. read more

Ford & Wallach - An Email to Scott Ford. - Employment Law Near Me - Los Angeles, California

What a headache of a law office. They were in charge of my father's workers comp case. My family reached out to their office letting them know my father had passed a month after it happened. They continued to collect payment to the point we received a letter from the state that we owed money when it was the law office cashing the payments. It was easier and more helpful to contact the state directly. The law office was zero help. It look THREE MONTHS to receive a letter from this office and it was a letter we already received stating we owed money when it was already paid. Don't expect a call back or any type of help. The letter was whited out and the envelope was poorly labeled. Disappointing they couldn't even help after my father's death. read more

Trying to get a hold of the Legal Assistant that handles my case is insane. I've called four times in one day and she's never available. I called for a fifth time to put a complaint in and you just get send to a voicemail. Horrible service!! read more

I was referred to Ford & Wallach after I sustained an injury at my previous job.... Worst mistake ever!! It was the most stressful process I had ever dealt with. If I ever had any questions it would take about a few days to get a response from anyone and when I did call, the legal assistant sounded irritated with any questions I asked.... Umm hello of course I had a ton of questions, this was my first time dealing with this. My case started beginning of 2020 possibly late 2019 by early 2022 I was getting no where with this law firm. I dropped them and had a different law firm represent me.. few months later my case was finally closed and I received a settlement with my OTHER law firm, while this law firm said I would not receive any kind of settlement. I had high hopes for this firm, but unfortunately they were disappointing. Save yourself the stress! read more

Ford & WALLACH was recommended by my union few years ago. My attorney at this office started off great but overtime I NOW feel my case is being neglected. I'm not informed or updated about my case, my calls or emails are not returned. If I request a phone consultation with my attorney to get updates he's hurried, agitated, dismissive, will interject a situation that seems to be a problem and then it's minimize as not a problem. The most recent situation; one of his colleague replaced him in a disposition. She was not really familiar with my case. She had a wrong understanding about a situation involving my case. And was passing along inaccurate information. My case have been dragging on for a long time. I don't mind if it's dragging on due to critical or vital situations that are being handled or managed but if it's dragging on due to neglect. I'm very concerned. I'm not sure what to do? I referred a coworker during the early stages with this case. She is also complaining and feels he's a horrible attorney. I feel bad about referring her and feel responsible. I feel I need to notify my union to let them know not to refer to this attorney. I just don't know; extremely disappointed...not quite sure what my next steps should be.. read more

Attorney Cheryl Wallach has represented me through multiple spine, knee, shoulder, and other injuries I sustained as a field technician during my many years at a California Bell Telephone company. California worker's compensation laws and Insurance companies are impossible. I'm not sure at what point insurance companies started practicing medicine and not allowing doctors to do their jobs, but they do! Luckily having Attorney Cheryl Wallach in my corner to navigated all of California's ridiculous worker's compensation laws and roadblocks, she was able to get me the medical treatment that I needed, and settle the cases for me. Yes, I would recommend Attorney Cheryl Wallach to you as your attorney. Thank you Cheryl! Gary W. read more

A big thank you especially to Mr. Scott Ford, Analisa Swan, and Elsa Perez for your outstanding work towards my favorable outcome. Joanne R. read more

Cheryl Wallach ruined my life. Not only was she the worst attorney ever, she doesn't respect her clients. Heck, I thought I was her client but she handed my case over to another attorney without informing me. She also screwed up the dates of my QME so that my ex-employer would win. I truly believe she works with these companies and pockets the money. She pretends that she cares for Latinas, but she only cares about looking good and making money. She is a fraud and should be ashamed of herself. She is one of those rich Caucasian women who act like she helps minorities, but we all know that she only makes the problem worse for us. She is a woman who doesn't support women, she supports money. Her paralegals are extremely rude and unprofessional. AVOID AT ALL COSTS!! read more

I had a very difficult Worker's Comp case against Dow Jones Inc. Scott Ford did an excellent job for me!! I think the best way to say, what a great job Scott did, is what the rep from Gallagher Bassett ( the Company we faced) told me after the case was settled. She said: "Your lucky you had Scott Ford as your attorney, otherwise you would not have received, such A Great Settlement!" What more, do I need to say about about Scott Ford's excellent Work for me? That statement says it ALL!! read more

I've had my Workman's Compensation case open for quite some time and was recently encouraged to speak to an attorney. I had a couple of attorneys in the past however due to what I believed to be poor communication and lack of concern for my well-being I chose not to work with them. Over time I was told that it wouldn't be in my best interest to get an attorney. Recently, I was linked with Attorney Cody Launder of Ford & Wallach's Law office. While talking to Mr. Launder I felt he was genuinely concerned and interested in my case; he was engaging, allowed me to talk and answer and ask questions. After a while of talking, I heard his timer go off, and I mentioned it. Attorney Launder said it was okay, that he wanted to make sure I understood what he was sharing with me. I only wish I had known of Mr. Launder at the onset of my case; I believe i would've had more smiles than tears and the case would've probably been resolved by now. Although he was unable to help me at this time, our consultation ended on a high note with me feeling much better than I did before I talked with him. If I could give him more stars and a higher rating I certainly would. I've spoken with several attorneys in the past and I say with absolute confidence that Mr. Cody Launder is by far tops the best. Besides his professionalism, I could feel his sincerity through the phone!! I can be critical especially when someone represents a disregard towards me. I have no criticisms of this attorney, only applause for him being such a wonderful human being whom happens to be an Attorney! read more

THANKS ROBERT CORDOVA read more

These Workman's compensation attorneys work on quantity over quality. They are difficult to work with and never call you back, so you have to call the adjuster yourself, and then they get mad because you spoke with the adjuster. I have had 2 surgeries and have yet to have one millisecond of occupational therapy, and have literally begged and cried to get this going so I could return to work. I had to call the adjuster again just trying to get paid, and even though I haven't received a check in almost 4 weeks, Cheryl Wallach just told me, "If I had to file a petition for every check that was late, I couldn't do it." She doesn't care, because she gets paid, we as clients have to wait sometimes 3 weeks for a callback from Angie, her paralegal. I'm so disappointed in Cheryl and Robert and Angie from Ford & Wallach. I don't know the rules regarding workers compensation, but I would think as attorneys they would care a little more about their clients that need help to get better. So disappointed!! read more

Cheryl helped my sons get nice sized settlements. My son with down syndrome is now taken care of for life. Cheryl fought long and hard, but she triumphed in the end. May God bless you and your team for all you did for my family. read more

I am looking into getting someone else. read more
