1. Lawyer: Although there is no law which says you need to hire a lawyer, handling a workers' compensation case on your own is very difficult. Unless your case is extremely simple, hiring a good lawyer is important to protect your rights. Job-related accidents can leave you with severe injuries that make it impossible to work. Workmen’s compensation claims are supposed to provide you with sufficient payments to cover living expenses and medical care while you recover. Unfortunately, these claims do not always go through with ease. Many times, employers deny liability and, therefore, the claim is denied. Under these circumstances, you need the advice of a worker’s comp attorney.
We will help you navigate through the complex legal system. By hiring an attorney through IIHC, we will make sure that your claim is resolved in a timely manner and that you receive fair and just compensation for your work-related injuries.
A workers compensation injury does not have to be severe to qualify you to receive benefits. Even if the injury is fairly minor and only requires a few days or weeks off work, you could still be entitled to benefits. This is why you need to discuss your case with an experienced attorney. If your workers compensation injury is severe, requiring various forms of medical care and leaving you unable to work for an extended period of time, you definitely need a lawyer’s advice.
As a hard-working, injured employee, you need to stand up for your rights. A worker’s comp attorney will help you get fair compensation for your injuries.

For example, (1) your weekly Comp checks will not start until your doctor sends the proper State form to the insurance company stating that you are unable to work, (2) certain tests and treatments must be approved in advance or the insurance company will not pay for them, (3) reports must be submitted to continue your weekly Comp checks, and (4) impairment ratings must be disputed within seven days of receiving it.
