Lupe Carrasco, Workers’ Compensation Attorney

About Lupe Carrasco

attorney lupe carrascoLupe Carrasco is an associate attorney with Eason & Tambornini, A Law Corporation. Originally from Orange County, California, Lupe developed an interest in law at an early age and was drawn to a career centered on advocacy, problem-solving, and helping others navigate difficult situations. He earned a degree in Sociology from the University of California, Berkeley, where he developed strong analytical and critical-thinking skills that continue to serve him in the practice of law today. After graduation, Lupe spent two years working as a legal assistant, gaining valuable firsthand experience and confirming his commitment to a legal career. He later earned his Juris Doctor from Loyola Law School.

Before joining Eason & Tambornini, Lupe gained experience representing clients in a variety of legal matters and developed a reputation for being organized, responsive, and dedicated to achieving positive results. He approaches every case with careful preparation and a client-focused mindset, understanding that effective representation requires both strong advocacy and clear communication. Today, Lupe is committed to helping injured individuals navigate the legal process with confidence while pursuing the compensation and justice they deserve.

Admitted to the California State Bar in 2004, Lupe spent the first eight years of his legal career practicing in Southern California, initially building a powerful operational background within insurance and employer defense firms. In 2012, recognizing his leadership and trial capabilities, his firm requested that he relocate to Sacramento to open and manage their new regional corporate branch office. Throughout his extensive defense tenure, Lupe gained unparalleled insight into how insurers systematically attempt to delay treatments, downplay complex industrial exposures, and treat injured workers as mere claim numbers. Disillusioned by these corporate tactics, Lupe chose to redirect his practice exclusively to plaintiff representation, bringing an invaluable inside understanding of defense-side handbooks to Eason & Tambornini’s labor group.

Lupe’s professional scope is uniquely expansive, having personally appeared at all but two of the Workers’ Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) district offices across the entire state of California. He holds specialized expertise in handling complex injuries sustained by construction trades, hospital personnel, and restaurant workers, and routinely handles structured mediations and arbitrations within specialized California Labor Code union carve-out programs.
