Workers’ Compensation insurance companies will often delay authorizing treatment for work injury claims causing long waits for surgery or important medical tests.
This is damaging to the injured worker, of course, because medical conditions frequently worsen without prompt care.
If you find yourself in this situation you should contact an Illinois Work Comp Attorney right away to discuss the delay in treatment.
Many people do not realize that it does not cost anything upfront to hire an Illinois Workers’ Compensation lawyer.
All fees are based on the amount of benefit recovered for you.
For example, fees are 20 percent of whatever is paid to you at the end of the case.
It makes sense to get help from a lawyer because your medical treatment is very important.
The insurance company has a number of lawyers providing it advice and representation.
You should also receive professional advice and legal assistance.
