Negar Matian
Attorney
Matian Law Group


Negar Matian, Esq. started Matian Law Group (“MLG”) in 2011 after practicing law for ten years under traditional law firm settings. Since forming MLG, Ms. Matian has successfully defended both large and small employers against multiple high exposure and catastrophic cases involving 132a filings, S&W allegations with corresponding OSHA violations, and Statute of Limitations defenses. In addition, she has aggressively and strategically settled her cases far below the reserved budget by mitigating overall litigation costs using evidence-based medicine, restructured MSAs, and experts in toxicology and epidemiology. Due to Ms. Matian’s valuable expertise and bold approach, MLG has been in constant demand and experienced rapid growth. Her practice has evolved into lobbying for large employers, providing training and assistance for Third Party Administrators including Sedgwick CMS and York Risk Services, and speaking at national and local conferences. Specifically, Ms. Matian is a frequent speaker at workers’ compensation conferences throughout California including PARMA, CSIA, CCWC, CWC & RISK. She is also an active member of the California Coalition on Workers’ Compensation Conference Committee which focuses on advancing legislative reform, leadership, and advocacy in the workers’ compensation system.
