In most cases, lawyer’s fees in an Illinois worker’s compensation case are 20% of the settlement for permanency.
The fees in an Illinois worker’s compensation case are charged on a contingency basis, which means that if you do not get a settlement, you do not owe attorney’s fees.
That means that if you are being denied worker’s compensation benefits for a workplace accident, it is at least worth contacting an experienced Chicago personal injury lawyer to discuss whether you have a case worth pursuing.
