Although the causes of injury may be different, all personal injury cases have one thing in common: the injured person has been hurt through the fault or negligence of someone else. Severe personal injury can be devastating for victims and their families, causing immense physical, emotional, and financial hardship. These victims have the right to seek financial restitution.

Workers Compensation

Construction and other work-related accidents injure thousands of American workers every day. Still more workers are injured while performing repetitive job duties that place excessive strain on the body. Construction site falls, heavy machinery accidents, exposure to toxic chemicals, and repetitive strain injuries caused by office computer usage are unfortunately common examples of workplace injuries.

Employees injured in work-related accidents, or by their working conditions, are entitled to file for workers compensation. Workers compensation is a state-required insurance program intended to compensate injured workers for medical expenses and time off work, regardless of whether the worker was at fault for the injury. The system was put in place to ensure workers are quickly and fairly compensated for their injuries.

Unfortunately, not all injured workers end up being fairly compensated through this government program. Employers generally contract with private insurance companies for their workers compensation coverage or, if large enough, pay these benefits themselves. And like all businesses, insurance companies and private employers are in the business of making money. They will settle their workers compensation claims for the smallest amounts possible. Moreover, once workers compensation benefits are accepted, workers forfeit any right to sue their employer in court for the injury.

At Rubin, Machado & Rosenblum, we have years of expertise and experience helping Chicago residents file workers compensation claims. Our attorneys know the ins and outs of this complex area of litigation and can help you receive the maximum award for your injury claim.
