About Sacramento, California

Sacramento is the capitol city of California with a population of 477,892 people and covers an area of approximately 100 square miles, making it the sixth largest city in the State of California and thirty-fifth largest in the United States. The Sacramento Metropolitan Area includes seven counties and has an estimated population of 2,527,123.

Incorporated on February 27, 1850, Sacramento is the oldest incorporated city in the State of California. In 1848 James W. Marshall discovered gold at Sutter’s Fort, which prompted a large number of gold-seekers to migrate to the Sacramento area, a migration which is commonly referred to as the “California Gold Rush.” In 1863 Sacramento became the terminus of the First Transcontinental Railroad, which along with the Gold Rush was another contributing factor to the surge in population Sacramento began to experience.

The economy of Sacramento is largely dependent on Medical Services and government jobs. The State of California, Sacramento County and the City of Sacramento combined employ over 85,000 people throughout Sacramento.

Sacramento is also home to world-renowned research hospital, UC Davis Medical Center. The UC Davis Health System employs over 7,700 employees in Sacramento, ranks in the top 50 hospitals in America and is most distinguished for its exemplary cancer and orthopaedic care. In addition to UC Davis Medical Center, Sacramento is also home to Dignity Health, Kaiser and Sutter hospitals, who combined employ over 19,000 people.

Sacramento State University also resides in the City of Sacramento. In the Fall Semester of 2012, Sacramento State University had a student body population of 28,539 students. The University’s campus spans over 300 acres and is located along the American River Parkway, just a few miles from downtown Sacramento.

“Old Sacramento” the second oldest part of Sacramento after Sutter’s Fort, is a popular tourist attraction, with many of the original buildings from the 1850s and 1860s having been preserved, restored or reconstructed. Sacramento is also home to the Sacramento Kings of the National Basketball Association (NBA). The Kings were brought to Sacramento from Kansas City in 1985 and have since been a popular local source of entertainment.

I highly recommend The Tiemann Law Firm! I had never before been in a situation where I sustained injury and had to seek legal representation. I was nervous, traumatized, and had no idea what to expect. Jelena, Peter, and their staff walked me through each step of the process. They explained everything in detail. They patiently answered all my questions, responded quickly to every email, text message, phone call, etc. I felt totally prepared for each new phase of the legal process. Furthermore, they were fearless in their defense of me. In certain situations, when I felt attacked or scared my attorney protected me like I was family. Their diligence, honesty, integrity, and compassion provided a true sense of healing and closure for my family and I. The Tiemann Law Firm accomplished more for me than I ever thought possible and I am forever grateful.

Here's the thing... Nobody really thinks much about lawyers until they need one.  Well, we needed one!  The Tieman Law Firm came through for us in a big way. They were professional, courteous, thorough, and had excellent staff as well.  Highly recommended...

No one wants to have to hire a lawyer, but if you do. I prefer Tiemann Law. They helped a family member who was injured on the job, and the company did not want to compensate him even though, the injury occurred on the job on company time. Jelena was always professional in explaining the lengthy process of fighting a large corporation. 2 years later he finally is receiving the deserved compensation.

From the very start of my case the Tiemann Law Firm was wonderful. Perter came all the way to my home to sit down and talk to me about my options. He made me and my partner feel very comfortable and promised us he would take the very best care of my case. Peter kept me informed every step of the way and was always on top of things. everything was done in a timely manor and I always felt like I was the only case he was working on because he was so fast. In the end Peter got me back way more money than I ever expected. I would recommend this law firm to everyone. I am very happy with the outcome of my case thanks to the Tiemann Law Firm! Thank you!

I was in a car accident a while back where I was injured and had to miss work for an extended period of time.  After nearly a year of fighting with the insurance company with no results and no progress, I met with Jelena Tiemann.  I couldn't have asked for a more responsive and supportive advocate.  We quickly reached a settlement and I finally was able to move from the stress and burden of feuding with my insurance.  I highly recommending meeting with Jelena if you're in need of a lawyer.
