Settlement for a Client Whose Infant Suffered Irreversible Brain Damage Due to Medical Negligence
The mother brought the boy to his physician on several occasions regarding the problem, but it took almost a full year before the physician recommended that the boy have an MRI.
Our client in this case was a woman whose obstetrician/gynecologist had failed to diagnose her terminal ovarian cancer, despite having given her numerous pap smears.
A woman who had undergone a partial hysterectomy for fibroid tumors came to Malman Law for help after she had experienced a series of unfortunate medical events and a costly misdiagnosis.
Settlement awarded for a 43-year-old who was the victim of medical malpractice..
As a member of a Chicago union, you are entitled to workers’ compensation benefits if you are injured on the job.
You are also protected from being fired for filing for workers’ comp. At Malman Law, we help injured union workers file for benefits, and we aggressively pursue claims of wrongful termination.
Chicago’s union workers have many of the toughest jobs in the city. From bricklayers to fire fighters, union workers build our city, keep it safe, and keep it running. Unfortunately, many of these workers face serious safety and health risks on a daily basis. Those who suffer injuries are entitled to financial compensation for their losses.
At Malman Law, we help union workers in Chicago successfully file claims for workers’ compensation. The Illinois workers’ compensation system is complicated, and while it provides “no-fault” benefits to injured employees, in many ways it is designed to provide the most protections to the companies they work for. As a result, claiming benefits requires in-depth knowledge and a willingness to fight. At Malman Law, we have represented more than 20,000 clients in workers’ comp and personal injury claims, and we are committed to making sure you receive the benefits you deserve.
The Illinois Workers’ Compensation Act requires all large employers to have workers’ compensation insurance to protect their injured employees. If you were injured on the job, you may be entitled to significant financial compensation for your injuries and losses. Under Illinois law, the benefits available through workers’ compensation include:
If your family relied on your income, filing for workers’ compensation may be the only way to ensure that you have the money you need to pay your bills and provide for your loved ones’ needs. To avoid making mistakes that could jeopardize your claim, we encourage you to contact us for a free consultation.

In addition to providing benefits for injured workers, the Illinois Workers’ Compensation Act also protects workers from being fired for filing compensation claims. It is your legal right to file for workers’ compensation, and you should not be forced to choose between seeking benefits and keeping your job. If you were fired because you filed for benefits (known as “retaliatory discharge”), your legal rights have been violated, and you may be entitled to additional financial compensation.
While there are limits on the amount you can collect, there are no limits on your right to recover for a retaliatory discharge.
When your health and your family’s financial future are on the line, you need to take your situation extremely seriously. At Malman Law, we know what your workers’ compensation claim means to you, and we know what a denial of benefits would mean for you and your family. If you choose to work with us, you can rest assured that you have a team of attorneys and expert staff on your side who are dedicated to making sure you receive maximum benefits for your injuries.
