We represent injured employees in their workers’ compensation claims. If you have an injury arising out of and in the course of your employment, you may have a workers’ compensation claim.
Under the Illinois Workers’ Compensation Act and the Illinois Workers’ Occupational Diseases Act, you may be entitled to the following benefits:
- Temporary total disability
- Permanent partial disability
- Payment of medical bills
Additional benefits or services may apply given the injuries involved.
We will accept workers’ compensation cases from anywhere in the State of Illinois.
If after the initial telephone conference you are unable to come to our office to meet with us, whether because of injury or geographic limitation, we would certainly be willing to come to you to discuss representation.
We only receive a fee in the event you recover a settlement or prevail in arbitration. Our contingency fee is 20% of the award of permanent partial disability as well as 20% of any disputed medical bills and temporary total disability awards. Our contingency fee is taken from the total amount recovered and we then recover the expenses we have incurred in prosecuting your claim from what remains of the proceeds after payment of our fee. In the event of no recovery, we will not seek reimbursement for costs advanced in prosecuting the action.
Be sure to act quickly as time limits may apply that could result in a bar to your claim.
