If you were injured on the job in Bloomington, you may be entitled to worker’s compensation for lost income, medical bills, and other expenses. Our firm can defend your rights and seek full compensation.

The Kryder Law Group, LLC will pair you with a Bloomington workers’ compensation lawyer. It is important that you not wait to retain legal help, as your claim could be time-sensitive.

What Compensation Can We Recover for You?

Your circumstances and losses affect how much compensation you may deserve. There are two general options for seeking compensation for a work-related injury, which are:

  • A workers’ compensation claim
  • A lawsuit against a third party

Both of these options may be available to you. The option that we exercise may affect what compensation you are entitled to receive.

Possible Compensation From a Workers’ Compensation Claim

The Illinois Workers’ Compensation Commission explains that most employers in Illinois must have some level of workers’ compensation insurance. So, if you were injured on the job, then you may receive coverage for:

  • The monetary equivalent of ⅔ of your weekly wages (up to a certain maximum amount)
  • The cost of reasonable medical care to diagnose and treat your injuries
  • Disability benefits (if applicable)
  • Vocational rehabilitation
  • Death benefits (in fatal workers’ compensation cases)

Rules for calculating benefits, including maximum benefits, may vary based upon:

  • Whether your injuries are temporary or permanent
  • How much work you must miss
  • Whether you are disfigured by your injuries
  • Other case-specific considerations

These matters can become complicated quickly. Our firm understands workers’ compensation-related laws and practices, and we can deal with your claim for you.

Possible Compensation From a Lawsuit

Some workplace injuries warrant a lawsuit, which may be the case when someone other than your employer is liable for your losses.

Lawsuits generally provide more expansive coverage than insurance claims. If we bring a successful lawsuit for you, then you may receive a financial recovery for:

  • Lost income and earning power
  • Medical care
  • Pain and suffering
  • Therapy for trauma
  • Medications
  • Lost quality of life
  • Any other injury-related losses

There is generally no cap on the compensation that you can receive. We will explore the possibility of bringing a lawsuit for you. However, we would need to act quickly to take this legal action, as 735 ILCS 5/13-202 enforces a general two-year timeframe.

Duties That Our Law Firm Can Handle for You

We deal with every responsibility of your workers’ compensation case. For insurance claims, we can:

  • Research the circumstances of your injury or illness
  • Gather any evidence that explains why your injury or illness happened
  • Identify every one of your losses
  • Calculate the cost of all of your losses
  • Review your employer’s workers’ compensation policy
  • Negotiate with the insurance companies

We may handle the same responsibilities for a lawsuit. Rather than negotiating with insurance companies, though, we will negotiate with other lawyers. If we need to bring your case to trial, then we will.

Reasons to Hire Us for Your Case

Handling an insurance claim or lawsuit on your own could have many negative consequences. You may suffer from:

  • Lack of legal knowledge
  • Lack of legal experience
  • Lack of time to focus on your case
  • Lack of health and motivation

Being injured or ill takes a lot out of you. Even if you were legally trained, your workplace injury or illness could make it difficult to complete a claim or lawsuit.

Hiring a lawyer on our team will allow you to avoid these consequences. We will use our experience and training to complete your claim. The end result could be compensation for you.
