Champaign Workers' Compensation Lawyer

If you are injured on the job, workers' compensation insurance may pay for your medical cost and rehabilitation costs, and provide compensation for any temporary or permanent disability. But remember that while workers' comp law may favor workers who suffer on the job injuries, in practice the workers' comp system favors employers and insurance companies.

For those not familiar with the system and its laws, workers' compensation is a highly complicated maze. If you have suffered an injury while on the job, you will need an experienced workers' compensation lawyer to get the compensation you deserve. At Frederick & Hagle, we have helped thousands of clients in workmans' comp and personal injury cases get compensation and benefits for their injuries. Our attorneys know the work comp system, its rules, and how to get the compensation that you are entitled to.

You Can Choose Your Doctor

Your employer and its insurance company will want to pay out as little as possible on your claim. They will try and steer you toward a doctor who they know will minimize the extent of your injury and disability. If at all possible, avoid a diagnosis and treatment by any doctor the employer or insurer recommends. You have the right to choose the doctor who will evaluate your claim.

If you have been injured on the job, talk with Frederick & Hagle as soon as possible after your injury.

We can inform you of your rights under Illinois workers' compensation law and help you avoid actions that can damage your chances of obtaining full compensation for your injury. If necessary, we can arrange for a second medical opinion which can bolster your claim and chances for full benefits.

If a third party is in some way responsible for your accident or injury, you may be able to collect damages from a third party, in addition to workers' compensation benefits. If you have been in a vehicle accident while on the job, injured by a defective tool or other product, or injured in a construction accident, Frederick & Hagle can work to obtain compensation from the parties responsible for your injury.
