Ruben Montoya

I founded MONTOYA LAW with the belief that when you hire an attorney, you deserve to work directly with one. Before starting my own firm, I worked at a respected Workers' Compensation and Personal Injury law firm, where I served as the managing attorney. During that time, I successfully increased workers' compensation settlements for my clients. When settlements didn’t reflect what injured workers deserved, I took those cases to trial and achieved favorable outcomes. Throughout my career, I have handled numerous trials with positive results and negotiated millions of dollars in out-of-court settlements. At MONTOYA LAW, I am dedicated to fighting for and protecting the rights of injured workers as they navigate the Workers' Compensation system. My commitment to advocating for my clients has earned me recognition as one of the top Workers' Compensation attorneys under 40 in California. I have been honored with several distinctions, including being named to the National Trial Lawyers 40 Under 40, which recognizes attorneys for their leadership, reputation, and trial results. I am also a member of the Workers' Compensation Trial Lawyers Association – Top 25, which acknowledges attorneys for their performance and leadership in this field. Additionally, I am proud to have received a Top Verdict Award of 2019 and to be a multimillion-dollar advocate member, following a multimillion-dollar settlement on a workers' compensation claim. I hold an Avvo rating of "Superb" and have been recognized as a Top Attorney in Workers' Compensation. I am also a member of the American Law Society, which highlights some of the nation's top lawyers. My work has been published in the Top 25 Noteworthy Panel Decisions, including the case of Rodas vs. WCAB.
