What Custom Legal Help for the Injured Looks Like

A couple of examples of what it looks like to get the legal help you need when you are injured.

Social Security sent out two sets of questions with a total of over 15 pages to a lady who experiences severe ongoing pain each day.

I sat down with her and went through each question and made sure that she understood why the question was being asked and how it applied to her daily life and her past work life.

When we were finished I faxed in the forms directly to the SSA office handling her claim so the forms would go directly into her file as soon as possible and not be lost.

Another client was unable to get a ride to his hearing. I took him to the hearing and we were able to go over his testimony once again on the ride to the Judge’s office and discuss what the Judge was looking for and what questions she would ask.

This is what legal help that is important to you looks like and it is crucial because it meets your needs and helps you do the best you can to win your case.

Make Sure to Get Your Illinois Work Comp Settlement

Too many people do not know that they are entitled to a Workers’ Compensation settlement when they are involved in an Illinos injury.

Seems like many Insurance Companies are hoping that injured workers will forget that they can get money for a work injury in Illinois.

Makes sense for the Workers’ Compensation insurance company because if you do not get your money within the statute of limitations then you can never get it.

Probably adds up to a lot of money for the insurance companies over a large number of claims each year.

Some insurance companies will just pay the medical bills and maybe some time off work pay and tell the injured worker that is they get.

Make sure that you understand the law.

You are entitled to a settlement in almost every work accident situation.

It makes sense to check with an experienced Illinois Workers’ Compensation lawyer to find out the value of your case. The attorney may only earn a  20 percent fee what you recover.
