Illinois and Missouri Workers' Compensation Lawyer
If you have been injured on the job, you are entitled to receive payment of workers' compensation benefits from your employer. Too often these benefits are denied, causing you to struggle to pay medical bills and replace lost income.
When these benefits are denied, it makes it difficult to provide for you and your family. If you live in the Metro-East (Southwestern Illinois) and Southern Illinois, as well as throughout Eastern Missouri, including the St. Louis metropolitan area, we can help you get the benefits you deserve.
Also, if you have been diagnosed with an occupational disease or illness you may be entitled to monetary benefits. An occupational disease is a disease that a worker contracts as the result of being exposed to dangerous conditions through his or her employment. Occupational diseases include but are not limited to the following: asbestosis, silicosis, cancer, lead poisoning, hearing loss, skin disorders and lung or respiratory problems due to chemical or dust exposure.
