No matter the type of injury, our goal is the same: to ensure you receive fair compensation for your medical bills, lost wages, and long-term needs.
Understanding Illinois Workers’ Compensation
In Illinois, employees generally cannot sue their employers directly for workplace injuries. Instead, claims must be pursued through the state’s workers’ compensation system. While this system is designed to provide benefits, it is often complex and difficult to navigate without skilled legal representation.
Our attorneys know how to handle complicated claims, including those involving:
- Disability benefits
- Pre-existing conditions
- Subrogation and third-party liability
We have secured compensation for workers in both private industry and state and local government, and we understand how to present strong claims on your behalf.
