Chicago Workers Compensation Lawyer Helps Employees with Claims

No one goes to work thinking of how one can possibly get injured on the job, or, if ever this happens, how it will have an impact on one's family.

Chicago, IL (prHWY.com) November 19, 2012 - Chicago, Illinois (October 25, 2012) - Neal Strom, a leading Chicago workers compensation lawyer, and his team at Strom & Associates are helping people injured on the job with their compensation claims to help them pay for expenses. Sustaining serious injuries is hard enough to deal with; getting one's claims through the complex claim process is another thing to manage.

No one goes to work thinking of how one can possibly get injured on the job, or, if ever this happens, how it will have an impact on one's family. These injuries can trigger significant financial losses as well as personal hardships.

According to the Illinois Workers' Compensation Commission, the state employs a "no-fault" system for indemnifying employees injured on the job. In short, no matter whose fault it was that contributed to the accident, the injured person is entitled to compensation benefits. In exchange for these, employees forfeit their rights to sue their employer for negligence.

The Illinois Workers' Compensation Act outlines the benefits that workers can claim by way of damages, as well as their rights. In the provisions of the Law, they can claim reimbursements for medical bills, temporary to permanent total disability, loss of wages, and expenses for retraining as well as survivor benefits.

For Chicago employees looking to get these benefits, it would be prudent to hire an experienced Chicago workers comp lawyer to help them go about the nuances of filing as well as securing their claims. Neal Strom, Kevin Yen, and Lindsey Strom help injured workers win their claims to help them with their expenses.

Strom & Associates now offers live chat services and has added a video blog on their website. For more information, visit www.PersonalInjuryChicagoLawyers.com today.
