Chicago Union Workers Compensation Attorney

Chicago’s Aggressive Union Workers’ Comp Attorneys

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.

Have You Been Injured on the Job?

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:

  • Payment of your medical expenses
  • Payment of your vocational rehabilitation and maintenance costs for qualifying programs
  • Disability benefits if you are either temporarily or permanently unable to return to your old job

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.

Were You Fiared Because You Filed for Workers’ Compensation?

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.
