Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file a workers compensation claim in Illinois?
In Illinois you generally have 3 years from the date of injury to file a claim. For occupational diseases you have 3 years from the date you knew or should have known the injury was work related. Missing this deadline can bar your claim.
Do I need a lawyer for a workers compensation case in Waukegan?
While not required, a lawyer can help if your claim is denied or if you have a serious injury. Illinois law allows lawyers to take cases on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if you receive benefits.
What benefits can I receive under Illinois workers compensation?
