Justin Der serves as a Senior Managing Partner based out of our San Diego office. He takes pride in his ability to estimate claim exposure and recommend reasonable settlement to obtain early resolutions on countless cases quickly and effectively.
One of Justin’s many accomplishments in his workers’ compensation career was obtaining a Take Nothing on a denied case within five months from receiving the file referral. His background representing Social Security disability claimants in administrative hearings gives him unique insight into both sides and ultimately assists in moving cases forward swiftly and with effective outcomes.
Justin grew up in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. His hobbies include exercising, golfing, training for triathlons, and coaching his daughter’s softball team. An ideal weekend for Justin involves spending time with his family and riding bikes, going on a staycation, or playing sports together.
Justin’s motto in life is, “Give’r.” If he could select any individual as a mentor, it would be Barack Obama. His favorite book is The Wonky Donkey as it is the only book his three children can agree on. As for Justin’s hidden talent, no one can karaoke quite like him.
Three words to best describe Justin are faster, higher, and stronger. His current favorite television show is Ted Lasso. If Justin’s life had a theme song, it would be “Friends In Low Places” by Garth Brooks as it represents the phenomenal company he remains surrounded with.
