Why waste your time representing yourself in an Illinois Work Comp case?
Some people believe they can save themselves money since they will not have to pay an attorney.
Some people do not want other people to know their business.
Some people do not know that you can use a lawyer.
You do not have to pay a workers’ compensation lawyer until you recover a settlement. The fee is 20 percent of your recovery.
There is no upfront fee, hourly fee, or retainer fee.
A lawyer is bound to keep all your case information confidential.
All injured workers are entitled to have their own attorney.
The insurance company will use multiple lawyers to advise them in your case and write the settlement contract you must sign in order to get your money.
You are entitled to use a lawyer to advise you whether the settlement offer is fair and explain your options in the case and review the settlement contract.
Once you settle your case it is over so make sure that you are completely comfortable with everything before agreeing to it and signing it.
