In an effort to raise awareness throughout Kern County on how to protect you and your families in the case of an injury or accident, Chain | Cohn | Clark has partnered with a local Spanish radio station to provide legal insight during interviews.
The 30-minute interviews will run once per month on KCHJ “El Gallito” 1010 AM and 92.1 FM, a radio station that broadcasts primarily ranchera and Norteño oldies reaching Bakersfield, Delano and extending throughout other Central Valley areas, such as Visalia and Tulare.
It’s hosted by local radio and TV personality Pepe Reyes, who has also hosted the morning show “Despierta Bakersfield” on Univision.
The first 30-minute interview, featuring Chain | Cohn | Clark associate workers’ compensation attorney Beatriz Trejo, will air at 1:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Feb. 7, on KCHJ “El Gallito” 1010 AM and 92.1 FM.
The goal of the show and partnership is to assist radio station listeners who need help with their potential accident, injury or workers’ compensation* cases.
Questions answered by Trejo on the first show included:
- What do you do if you’re injured at work, and what steps should you take?
- What if I’m hurt and I am not a citizen?
- How does Chain Cohn Clark stand out compared to other law firms?
Future interviews with Pepe Reyes will continue to feature Beatriz Trejo, who will answer listeners legal questions and provide insight on legal issues of the day. The shows will also feature Chain | Cohn | Clark director of marketing and public relations Jorge Barrientos, who will discuss the law firm’s work throughout the community that includes combating DUI crimes, and increasing pedestrian and bicycle safety, among other efforts.

Trejo, who is bilingual in English and Spanish, has also become a regular of sorts on El Show De Cascabel, a Spanish language show on 96.9 FM, as well as on Radio Lazer, 106.5 FM. On those shows, as well, she discusses the law firm’s services, and answers questions from listeners.
