Workers' Compensation Cases

Injuries can occur in all types of jobs and in every industry. While Illinois workers' compensation benefits provide protection to workers who are injured on the job, it can be difficult to get rightful benefits approved without the help of an experienced attorney.

If you have been injured while working, our skilled attorneys at Becker, Schroader & Chapman, PC can help you pursue workers' compensation benefits for replacement income and medical expenses.

Our attorneys will take the time to thoroughly assess your case and will be accessible whenever you have questions or concerns. Call our law firm at 618-931-1100 or 217-243-0800 for a FREE initial consultation and results-driven representation in your workers' compensation case.
