Many people sign their Illinois Workers’ Compensation settlement contracts without understanding what it means for them or the future.
I have seen some settlement contracts that will hurt injured union workers in several ways.
Insurance companies want injured workers to waive their rights to future medical payments.
Insurance companies want injured workers to sign contracts that will not cover unpaid injury related medical bills.
Insurance companies want injured workers to sign contracts that will not pay the full value of the injury claim
Insurance companies do not care if injured workers are receiving Social Security Disability benefits or may receive them in the future.
Insurance companies want injured workers to sign contracts before they have reached maximum medical improvement.
Do not sign Illinois Workers’ Compensation settlement contracts until you have an experienced Illinois Work Comp Attorney review them with you.
