For 77 years, Hanna Brophy has been focused on one thing: workers’ compensation defense law
in California. Such focus results in expertise. By concentrating on workers’
compensation cases, we’ve been able to stay ahead of the constantly evolving Labor
Code and case law.
Tobias Nicholson graduated from California State University, San Bernardino in 2005 with a Bachelor’s degree in English. He then attended the University of La Verne College of Law and graduated magna cum laude in 2011.
Prior to joining Hanna Brophy, Tobias practiced in the areas of family law, criminal law, bankruptcy, and, most recently, workers’ compensation law as an applicant’s attorney in Fresno. As an applicant’s attorney, he gained valuable trial experience and insights into case strategy that he uses to benefit our clients on the defense side.
When he is not working, Tobias enjoys spending time at home with his wife, Anna, and their beautiful baby, Tabitha.
While you may be working with one of our nearly 140 attorneys, each of our lawyers has access to the knowledge and experience of all of our attorneys throughout the State. This means that your relationship isn’t just with your attorney; it’s with our entire team.
Hanna Brophy started in 1943. That’s more than 75 years of experience (40 more years than many of the other workers’ compensation firms in the State). That experience makes us masters in the field and means that there’s little we haven’t seen, which allows us to provide expeditious and cost-effective solutions to our clients’ workers’ compensation claims.
Our 15 offices afford our clients local representation anywhere in California. Our attorneys are a constant presence at each of the WCAB venues and have gained the respect of the judges before whom we appear as well as the attorneys against whom we litigate.
