Who Will Protect Your Rights if You Are Injured on the Job?
Because workers' compensation is a complex process with many rules and exceptions, the majority of workers do not know all of their rights after an injury on the job. That is why representation from an experienced lawyer can be so important when you are fighting for benefits.
At The Law Offices of Chad M. Hayward, P.C., we represent injured workers in Chicago and throughout northern Illinois. Our attorney can assist you with denied claims and arbitration. Workers' compensation cases are taken on a contingency fee basis. If we accept your case, we charge no fees unless we recover benefits for you. To schedule a free consultation with a Chicago denied workers' comp claim attorney, please call 888-804-8641 or contact us online.
Representation at Arbitration
Denying valid claims is a common practice in the insurance industry and workers' comp insurance is no exception. If your claim was denied, you may still be able to receive benefits. We can help you resubmit your claim, correcting any errors and gathering the necessary medical information.
Your claim can be heard by an arbitrator from the Illinois Workers' Compensation Commission if your claim continues to be denied. We represent clients at these hearings, collecting additional medical evidence and witness statements, when necessary. The insurance company will be represented by lawyers who are there to reduce the company's expense and exposure to risk. It is not advisable to represent yourself at arbitration hearings; you need an advocate on your side.
