Workers' Compensation
Verdicts & Settlements
Our firm handles workers' compensation cases in Illinois and Missouri. Workers' Compensation settlements are based on a percentage of permanent disability calculated using your average weekly wage. The law provides for only limited recovery, especially in Missouri. However, if the injuries were caused by a negligent third party or a defective product, a separate lawsuit may be possible. The following list includes some of the workers' compensation settlements we have achieved:
