It doesn’t matter what type of work you do, there is always a risk of injuring yourself on the job. In Cook County, Illinois, there are many people who get hurt at their workplace and this comes to us with no surprise. Some extremely serious work injuries can permanently hinder a person’s ability to get around and continue their daily duties. Unable to perform their previous duties, an injured worker may have to change jobs and earn less money.

If you are an Illinois worker who has been injured, or if you have gotten sick from doing your job, you may be entitled to workers’ compensation benefits. Workers’ compensation includes medical benefits, lost income, permanent disability and vocational rehabilitation. However, employers and their insurance companies sometimes do not treat employees fairly and try to offer compensation that is far below what is needed to cover all the expenses associated with their injuries.
