When workers are injured on the job, they are often faced with medical bills and other expenses at a time when they are unable to earn a paycheck. Workers' compensation laws are intended to help injured employees cope with the consequences of serious personal injuries in the workplace. Unfortunately, employers, insurance companies, and other parties occasionally decide not to honor their obligations to injured workers. Those who have been wrongfully denied benefits, or who have been fired because they were unable to work, should know that Chicago-area workers' compensation attorney Roger D. Rudich offers clients powerful legal assistance.
Generally speaking, any injury that takes place in the work environment and requires medical attention is covered by workers' compensation benefits. Employers are required to retain insurance to cover the costs of injuries to their workers. This is particularly important in construction and other fields involving a relatively high risk of injury.
In addition, workers who miss work because of an injury may be entitled to temporary disability payments while undergoing treatment. These payments are made at two-thirds of an injured person's salary. Chicago-area workers' compensation attorney Roger D. Rudich, serving Chicago, Skokie, and Cook County, Illinois residents, can help victims of workplace injuries file the appropriate claims and ensure that they receive the maximum benefits to which they are entitled under the law.
While most employers and their insurers provide for their workers as required by law, some choose to deny benefits, hoping that injured workers will simply cope on their own. Some even decide to fire injured workers. In the event of situations like these, employees need access to a workers' compensation attorney with litigation experience.
If you have been injured at work, there are important steps you can take. By suing employers, insurance companies, and any third parties involved in your accident, you can receive financial compensation to help support your family, pay your medical bills, and cover the costs of long-term disability. Depending on the severity of your case, you may be entitled to a large sum in compensation. A workers' compensation attorney can advise you of the appropriate course of action.
At Roger D. Rudich, Ltd., we are frequently able to secure judgments or settlements against employers, insurers, and other parties who initially denied benefits. If your claim has been wrongfully denied, do not despair. Contact a workers' compensation attorney at Chicago's Roger D. Rudich, Ltd. to discuss your options.
