How can you tell if the Workers’ Compensation Insurance Company is treating you right?
If you are off work are they paying you 2/3rds of your average weekly wage?
If you are getting medical treatment are they paying your medical bills?
If you need a specialist are they making sure that you get your medical treatment as soon as possible?
If you need surgery has it been scheduled so that you can start your physical therapy and get back to work quickly?
If you have had all your medical treatment and returned to work has the insurance company offered you a settlement?
Is the settlement offer fair for the injury and treatment you received?
If you have not been able to return to work because of permanent restrictions is the insurance company helping you do a job search?
These are some of the major tests for determining whether the Work Comp insurance company is following the law.
If you are having problems in any of these areas you should contact an experienced Work Comp lawyer as soon as possible.
In Illinois Workers’ Compensation cases there are no attorney fees unless there is a recovery.
