Most personal injury and Illinois Workers’ Compensation cases end up being settled.
Statistics show that over 90 percent of these cases will be settled.
Why?
It takes a long time from filing a case until is allowed to go to trial.
Once a case goes to trial the Judge, the Jury or the Arbitrator makes the final decision in the case. This means you could get no money or a low award or verdict.
Settlements are more predictable. You know the amount you will receive.
Settlements are paid out faster.
The important thing to know is the value of your case so that you will receive a fair settlement.
Having an experienced injury lawyer or workers’ compensation lawyer will help guide you toward a settlement that is of maximum value.
The experienced lawyer will know your case’s weaknesses and strengths and what a Judge or Arbitrator will likely award.

Training in responding to work place emergencies is vital. This accident results in work comp death claim and OSHA claim.
No matter the type of injury you have, whether it be a work injury, a motor vehicle injury or a social security disability condition, the most important thing to do is give your doctor details.
The reason is that the people who decide your case: a Judge, an Arbitrator or an Administrative Law Judge rely heavily on what is written in your medical records.
If you testify in court that your injury happened in a certain way and it is described differently or not explained at all in your records then you will most likely lose your case.
If you testify in court that you are in pain most of the day and it is hard for you to concentrate and the doctor does not write this in his notes, then you most likely lose your case.
If you testify in court that your medicines make you sleepy and tired all day and the medical records show that you have no side effects from your medicine, then you will have problems.
What you must do is explain in detail to your doctors your problems and how they came about.
For instance, “I fell at work and it twisted my back. It is hard for me to walk and stand during the day”.
“My pain medicine makes me sleepy and I have to take a nap every afternoon.”
Some people take a paper to their doctor with a brief list of their problems so that it is easy and clear for the medical staff.
