Delay in reporting your work injury as soon as possible can certainly cause you great problems in getting paid what you are entitled to under Illinois law. However, another mistake may be even more costly to your case.
Some insurance companies will neglect to pay you a settlement for your work injury.
Walking away from your work injury claim without a settlement will cause you to miss out on the money you are entitled to under the law.
You ability to get the settlement is time limited.
Therefore, to protect your settlement you should contact a Work Comp lawyer right away.
