While these are fairly informal hearings conducted by an arbitrator, the rules of evidence do apply, so this step should be handled with the help of an experienced lawyer. The employer and insurer always have an attorney. If workers' compensation benefits were denied, or insufficient benefits were granted, Illinois law gives you 30 days to appeal the decision to Illinois Industrial Commission If the outcome still does not meet your needs, we can represent you in further appeals in the Illinois state court system. An Important Note About Our Fees Many people who suffer an injury at work wait too long to enlist the help of an experienced attorney. They wait until something goes wrong because they are worried about the cost. That is not something you have to worry about. We handle all cases on a contingency basis, which means we receive a percentage of the total compensation you are awarded. This amount will be the same whether you enlist us at the very start or whether you wait until the last minute. By enlisting us now to help you through the Illinois workers' compensation process, we can make sure that everything is handled properly from the first step on. We can help you get the compensation you need as soon as possible.
