Lawyers practicing Rockford Accident Laws

Attorneys providing Legal Advice to Clients with Workers Compensation & similar Injury Cases

An employer's insurance may cover your claim, but you will need to prove that your injury occurred on-the-job in order to hold the company legally liable.  Our attorneys look into your case and guide you through the process of establishing your employer's liability.  We handle even the most complex worker's compensation cases, including:

  • Repetitive stress syndrome
  • Contingent or contract workers
  • Employment contracts and waivers
  • Former employees - severance packages and related personal injury waivers
  • Unsafe working conditions
  • Products  liability - defective or unsafe equipment
  • Premises liability - slips, trips, and falls
  • Railroad workers - Federal Employer Liability Act (FELA)

Do not discount a nagging ache or pain, which may be a symptom of a work-related injury.  Some injuries, including carpal tunnel syndrome, can be prevented if an employer purchases safety equipment like ergonomic keyboards.  When an employer is negligent in their duty of care toward their employees, our attorneys take action to help you recover damages for your personal injury claim.  We conduct thorough investigations and obtain witness statements, photographic evidence, and additional information as proof of your claim.

What to expect in worker's compensation litigation

Once your employer admits liability for your injury, their insurance may be willing to reimburse you for a portion of your expenses.  Once you accept a settlement, you waive your right to file a claim in the future.  You need a lawyer to look out for your long-term interests.  We can go over your settlement agreement at no cost to you.  If we believe that you are entitled to more, we can negotiate with the insurance to help you obtain a fair settlement.
