Rancho Mesa Insurance Services is pleased to announce the hiring of Jim Malone, a Workers' Compensation Claims Advocate.
Jim began his workers’ compensation career as an injured worker in the late 1980s. He was unable to return to his construction career after his work injury and, through vocational rehabilitation, was hired by a workers’ compensation insurance company and trained to be a workers' compensation claims adjuster.
Jim then became certified with the California Office of Self-Insurance Plans through the Department of Industrial Relations and became the workers’ compensation claims administrator for the San Diego Transit. Jim subsequently started Workers' Compensation Consulting, providing services and guidance to employers, physicians, attorneys and injured workers.
