Problems Our Workers’ Compensation Lawyers Handle
Your workers’ comp checks stopped or are late
If your TTD checks stopped, are late, or were reduced, we can review what the insurance company is doing and explain how to fight for your lost wages.
Medical treatment or surgery was denied
Insurance companies often deny treatment, delay authorization, or send workers to IMEs. We fight to get injured workers the medical care they need.
Your claim was denied
A denied claim does not always mean your case is over. We handle disputed accidents, preexisting-condition arguments, repetitive trauma claims, and IME disputes.
The insurance company is pushing you back to work too soon
If the insurance company, employer, or IME doctor says you can work but your treating doctor disagrees, talk to us before your benefits are cut off.
You already have a lawyer but want a free second opinion
If you already have a workers’ compensation lawyer, you can still call us for a free second opinion. We review cases where checks have stopped, medical treatment or surgery has been denied, settlement talks are not moving, or the worker does not understand what is happening.

Do I Have an Illinois Workers’ Compensation Case?
In Illinois, workers’ compensation is a no-fault system. That means you may be eligible for benefits for a job-related injury or illness even if the accident was partly your fault, as long as the injury arose out of and in the course of your employment.
In general, you may have an Illinois workers’ comp case if:
- Your injury or illness happened while you were performing your job or because of your work conditions.
- You reported the injury to your employer within the required time.
- You needed medical treatment and/or missed work because of the injury.
- Your checks, treatment, surgery, or claim were delayed, denied, or cut off.
Common Work Injuries We Handle
- Back and neck injuries
- Shoulder and rotator cuff injuries
- Knee injuries
- Hand, wrist, and carpal tunnel injuries
- Slip, trip, and fall injuries
- Warehouse, factory, construction, healthcare, and delivery-driver injuries
- Repetitive trauma and cumulative injury claims
How Much Does It Cost?
There is no fee unless we win compensation for you. The consultation is free, and you can speak with our team in English or Spanish.
