I would like to highly recommend The Romanucci & Blandin law firm! After falling for one of the TV law firms and and having been transferred to five different attorneys in a year, I received a recommendation for their firm. I was in a very serious accident and had a police report that said the other driver was at fault. The previous attorney firm was not making any effort and had given up on my case. Attorney's Daisy Aylon and Sam Horton were assigned to the case. They came to my rescue and were able to settle the case for a very substantial amount. If you have been injured in an accident, please do yourself a favor, and don't get tricked like I did! Romanucci & Blandin changed my life! They will help you too!!!!

I had the pleasure of working with Lane Brown, who represented me in a challenging case, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the service provided. They were incredibly responsive throughout the entire process, always keeping me informed and addressing my concerns promptly. Their expertise and dedication really stood out, especially considering the complexities of the case. Thanks to Lane Brown hard work, we were able to navigate through it successfully. I highly recommend Lane Brown for anyone in need of top-notch legal representation!

I purchased a car in the last year (I won't name the brand) that needed to be brought back for a recall, however, before they announced the recall I got into an accident because of the issue (sticky gas pedal). I called Lake Cook Law Group & they handled everything. They've been a huge help. Thank you guys!

Chris and his team have been incredibly helpful during our marriage visa process. Throughout the different stages, Chris was always reassuring and diligent with details. Without him, we would not have been able to complete the process in such a timely manner. Highly recommended for anyone with any immigration needs.

I am incredibly grateful to Christopher Helt and his team for helping me with my immigration case. This was a long and difficult journey that took 15 years, but he never gave up on me. From the very beginning, he showed dedication, compassion, and a true commitment to my case. He was always there to answer my questions, explain every step, and provide support when things felt overwhelming.
Even when it seemed like we were facing impossible challenges Christopher kept fighting for me. His knowledge and hard work made all the difference, and after so many years, we finally won the case and I’m getting my citizenship. This victory means everything to me, and I know it wouldn’t have been possible without his help.
If you need a lawyer who truly cares, works tirelessly, and will stay by your side no matter how long it takes, I cannot recommend Christopher Helt enough. He is truly the best, and I will always be thankful for everything he and his team done for me.

In September 2023, I was involved in an auto accident with a person who had no insurance. I did not know what to do. A friend of mine referred the sevices of Mr. Siegel to me. It was one of the best decisions I ever made. Mr. Siegel and his staff made the process very easy to understand. They always returned my phone calls, And got me a better settlement than I anticipated. He was fair and transparent, and made a very stressful situation for me, Into a good experience. If you are in an auto accident, I highly recommend Mr. Siegel. God forbid it ever happens to me again, But if it does, I am definitely going to Retain his services again.

If you're looking for a lawyer that's going to shoot it to you straight, explain his thought process, and outline expectations for your case in terms of strengths, weaknesses, and desired result, Rex is your guy. My dad was in an accident and from the many firms I reached out to for assistance, Rex stood out from the competiton. Not only was he the only one who came and visited us at our home, from the very beginning he laid out what to expect in an auto injury accident, specifically to our situation. He offered his opinion based on his experience and how he believed we should pursure financial compensation for my dad's injuries. I couldn't have asked for better help. Rex laid out the process and hurdles in a way that gave me comfort in knowing where we stood during our case, and what to expect. Thank you again Rex to you and your team, terrific! -Martin

My wife and I hired Aaron to help with a security deposit dispute against our landlord and were very glad to have done so. While other firms have slow and bureaucratic processes for assessing potential cases, when I called Aaron he immediately asked for the details of our case and gave us an appraisal of our legal standing as well as what we could most likely expect from settlement/court(which ended up matching our experience exactly). Aaron made the subsequent process, from filing to negotiations and settlement, extremely easy and pain free. I would highly recommend giving Aaron a call if you need a representative for any Chicago Landlord/Tenant matters.

I immediately contacted Scott after watching his YouTube videos. He came to our rescue right away. He made sure that my grandma got taken good care of. Thanks, Scott.

All that I can say that This attorney is not supportive and not cooperative, I wish that there is less than one star, to put it in this page, the transparency and providing communication was questionable, waiting long time on the line or maybe calling many days after just to have an answer was one of the struggles that I faced dealing with this office, you can say that it is like some businesses very impressive in the advertising, but services are the opposite.

What an amazing staff to deal with, I had a work injury and like everyone that seeks advice I was nervous at first. Nancy Shepard kept me in the loop with everything, she took my case from a different attorney she took the time to go back and review every detail and proceeded to fight for me even more. You don’t get that from anyone, that much attention to a single case, Nancy Shepard and the team at Seidman, Margulis & Fairman thank you!.

I was initially referred to Z Wang & Associates in 2013 by a friend of mine. My parents met with Zhidong Wang when he traveled back to China in 2013–2014, and we decided to start the EB-5 process with Z Wang & Associates as our immigration attorneys. We first filed the I-526 in September 2015 and received approval in September 2016. We filed the I-485 in April 2020 and had it approved in July 2022. In May 2024, we filed the I-829 and received approval in December 2024. We are glad that, after this 9-year wait, we have finally completed the entire EB-5 process and had our conditions removed.
Over the years, we worked with Dora Zang, Jamie Hossa, Jeff Cheng, and Zhidong Wang, who were always able to answer our questions whenever we needed help. We truly appreciate their time and assistance over the past nine years! We will contact them again for the N-400 process and any future green card applications for my parents.

I recently had an outstanding experience with Samuel VP Banks Law Office. Their expertise in zoning and a range of legal services truly sets them apart. From the moment I walked in, the welcoming and professional atmosphere made a great impression. I especially want to highlight Nikki Lopatinsky—she was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. Nikki took the time to explain every detail, answered all my questions with clarity, and went above and beyond to ensure I felt supported.
The office itself is amazing—a perfect blend of modern professionalism and a personal touch. The team’s commitment to excellence is evident in every interaction, and they made what could have been a stressful zoning issue much more manageable. If you’re in need of legal assistance in zoning or other related matters, I highly recommend Samuel Bo Banks Law Office. Their expertise, combined with the exceptional service from Nikki and the team, makes them a top choice for any legal needs.

Clifford Law Offices helped me with my falling on ice personal injury case. They were incredible for the entire time they represented me. They were supportive and never made me feel like my case was not important. They were patient and answered all my questions throughout the case. They were always responsive and continued to walk me through the process, ensuring I understood the next steps and more importantly the timeline.
I could tell they were committed to obtaining the best outcomes for my case. As we neared the end of the case, they talked with me about my options and in the end, they helped me settle my case for an amount that exceeded my expectations. And even after getting the settlement, they continued to stay in touch to get me the settlement funds as quickly as possible.
I highly recommend using Clifford Law Offices if you ever need a personal injury lawyer. They are professional, empathetic, and will fight hard for you.

Quite possibly the most frustrating experience with a recruiter I've ever had. Doesn't respond to messages, even though I replied to the questions within 30 minutes. Asked for time to meet and discuss a job, I agreed, then that time came and went with no call. I have no idea why I gave it another shot after that, but I did. I offered several times I was available over several days. We agreed to a day and time, then a day later I get a message claiming they double booked the time. Wait, what? I would strongly caution if you're trying to do business with this company. The recruiter is the first point of contact and first impressions are absolutely everything. What if I were the one carrying on that way? They'd send me a rejection letter!

David of David Gray Law Office was nothing short of a godsend during one of the most challenging times of my life. After my father's passing, I was faced with the devastating reality of having only two days before facing eviction. With just a single phone call and a brief explanation of my situation, David sprang into action and saved my home. His dedication and expertise exceeded anything I could have ever hoped for in an attorney.
David's empathy, compassion, and unwavering work ethic set him apart in a way I doubt I'll ever encounter again. Thanks to him, my family and I have a place to call home, and I cannot begin to express the depth of our gratitude. Mr. Gray, no words can truly capture the immense appreciation we will always hold for you. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Jonas Hwang is newly representing my ex-husband in our post decree divorce case. I am ProSe.
Eventhough I informed him about my ex husband's health condition, which prevents him to make sane financial and personal decisions, Mr.Hwang has not taken it (yet) in consideration and has not stopped taking an unethical advantage of my ex husband's illness, to make profit on our sad family situation. My ex, our 2 children and I have been subjected to this treatment for the past 7 years from different attorneys. Mr.Hwang himself is a well educated kind hearted young man, experiencing a stressful life event, which affects his emotions and work performance. Mr.Hwang has a good seed and a great potential. He may benefit from taking time off to handle his family situation and to steady his performance..all good intentions (words) must be followed by proper actions. Developing solid selfawareness, honesty, and integrity in ACTIONS would enrich his professional status as well as using his nice communication skills and conscience to do more mediation than ligitation. (Under pressure things tend to get worse). I hope he will choose to work on a fair, just and timely resolution of the case instead of supporting, enabling and abusing my ex husband's behavior disorder (immoral actions).

Got into my car accident in May 2024. Signed a contract with them around the beginning of June. Told me the process would take 2-3 months, it would be pro bono, wouldn’t pay any hospital bills, I would be able to contact them when ever I need, and told me we would have a 60/40 split 60 for me 40 for them when the settlement came. Since then I’ve been waiting 8 months and counting, they denied offers without my consent, they don’t answer my calls, takes them weeks if not months to respond back, when I got an offer the split ended up being 36/64 split(36 for me and 64 for them), and told me I would have to be paying the hospital bills with my portion. I have yet to receive my settlement. I don’t care about an apology I want my 60/40 split like I originally signed for and I want my settlement. This is the WORSE law firm I have ever hired. DO NOT HIRE THEM

What a Workers’ Compensation Lawyer Can Do for You
A workers’ compensation lawyer specializes in helping employees who are injured or become ill as a result of their job to receive the benefits they are entitled to under workers' compensation laws. These lawyers represent injured workers in claims for medical benefits, wage replacement, and other compensation related to workplace injuries or illnesses. They also help when claims are denied, benefits are delayed, or disputes arise with the employer or the insurance company.
Whether you've been injured on the job, developed an occupational illness, or are dealing with a denied workers' compensation claim, a workers’ compensation lawyer can help you navigate the claims process and ensure you receive the full benefits you deserve.
When Should I Hire a Workers' Compensation Lawyer?
You should consider hiring a workers' compensation lawyer in several situations, especially when complications arise during the claims process or when your rights as an injured worker are being challenged. Some common reasons to hire a workers' compensation lawyer include:
- Claim denial: If your workers' compensation claim has been denied, a lawyer can help you appeal the decision and represent you in hearings or litigation.
- Inadequate benefits: If the insurance company offers you a settlement that doesn’t cover your medical expenses, lost wages, or other damages, a lawyer can negotiate on your behalf for a fair amount.
- Delay in receiving benefits: If your benefits are being delayed, a lawyer can help expedite the process to ensure you receive timely compensation.
- Permanent disability: If your injury leads to permanent disability (partial or total), a lawyer can help you navigate the more complex process of securing long-term benefits.
- Retaliation by employer: If your employer retaliates against you for filing a workers' compensation claim (e.g., by firing or demoting you), a lawyer can protect your rights and pursue legal action.
- Third-party liability: If a third party (e.g., a contractor or equipment manufacturer) was responsible for your injury, a lawyer can help you pursue additional compensation through a personal injury lawsuit.
- Pre-existing conditions: If your employer or the insurance company claims that your injury is related to a pre-existing condition, a lawyer can help you present evidence showing that the injury was work-related.
Hiring a lawyer early in the process can prevent delays, avoid mistakes, and ensure you receive all the benefits you’re entitled to under workers' compensation law.
What Does a Workers' Compensation Lawyer Do?
A workers' compensation lawyer provides a range of legal services to injured workers, ensuring that they receive the benefits they deserve. Their tasks often include:
- Filing claims: Helping injured workers prepare and file their workers' compensation claims to ensure accuracy and timeliness.
- Appealing denied claims: Representing workers whose claims have been denied and guiding them through the appeals process, including hearings and court appearances.
- Negotiating settlements: Negotiating with insurance companies to secure fair compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages.
- Handling disputes: Resolving disputes between the injured worker, the employer, and the insurance company regarding the amount of compensation or the nature of the injury.
- Coordinating medical evidence: Gathering and presenting medical records, expert testimony, and other evidence to support the workers' compensation claim.
- Advocating for benefits: Ensuring that injured workers receive all the benefits they’re entitled to, including temporary or permanent disability benefits, vocational rehabilitation, and medical treatment.
- Filing third-party lawsuits: In cases where a third party is responsible for the injury, a workers' compensation lawyer may also pursue a personal injury lawsuit to recover additional damages.
How Are Workers’ Compensation Lawyers Paid?
Workers' compensation lawyers typically charge a contingency fee, meaning they only get paid if they successfully recover benefits for you. This fee is usually a percentage of the benefits awarded, and the specific percentage is often regulated by state law. Here's how it generally works:
- Contingency fee: The lawyer's fee is typically between 15% and 25% of the total benefits awarded to you. You don’t have to pay any upfront legal fees, and the lawyer’s fee comes out of the settlement or benefit award.
- No fee if no recovery: If the lawyer doesn’t recover any benefits for you, you generally don’t have to pay for their services.
- State regulations on fees: Many states cap the percentage that workers' compensation lawyers can charge, and some states require the fee to be approved by the workers' compensation board or judge.
Be sure to discuss the fee structure with your lawyer during the initial consultation to understand how much you will owe if your case is successful.
How Much Does a Workers' Compensation Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a workers' compensation lawyer typically depends on the contingency fee arrangement, meaning the lawyer’s fee will be a percentage of the benefits you receive. General cost estimates include:
- Contingency fees: Most workers' compensation lawyers charge between 15% and 25% of the total settlement or benefits awarded. For example, if you receive $50,000 in benefits, the lawyer’s fee would range from $7,500 to $12,500.
- State regulations: Some states limit the percentage that workers' compensation lawyers can charge. In these cases, the fee is usually capped, often at 20% to 25%, depending on state law.
- Additional costs: Some lawyers may charge for out-of-pocket expenses, such as filing fees, medical records retrieval, and expert witness testimony, though these costs are typically deducted from the settlement after the case is won.
You should always ask for a clear explanation of fees and potential additional costs during your consultation so you understand the financial arrangement.
Top Questions to Ask a Workers' Compensation Lawyer
Before hiring a workers' compensation lawyer, it’s important to ask the right questions to ensure they are the best fit for your case. Key questions to ask include:
-
What experience do you have with workers' compensation cases?
Ensure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, especially if your injury is severe or the case involves disputes. -
How do you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges a contingency fee and whether there are any additional costs you need to be aware of. -
What is the likelihood of success in my case?
Ask for an honest assessment of your case, including the potential challenges and outcomes. -
Have you handled cases like mine before?
Find out if the lawyer has experience dealing with cases involving similar injuries or disputes, such as denied claims or permanent disability. -
How long will the process take?
While it’s difficult to predict an exact timeline, the lawyer should be able to provide a general estimate based on their experience with similar cases. -
Will you personally handle my case?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle parts of your case. Make sure you know who will be working on your claim.
How to Check the Credibility of a Workers' Compensation Lawyer
To ensure you are hiring a reputable workers' compensation lawyer, follow these steps to verify their credentials and track record:
- Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing, with no disciplinary actions against them.
- Look for workers' compensation experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in workers' compensation law and have successfully handled cases similar to yours.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s expertise and service.
- Ask for references: A credible lawyer should be willing to provide references from past clients who can speak to their experience in workers' compensation cases.
- Check for professional affiliations: Membership in organizations like the Workers' Injury Law & Advocacy Group (WILG) or local bar association committees on workers' compensation can indicate the lawyer’s commitment to this area of law.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make the most out of your first consultation with a workers' compensation lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:
- Accident report or incident documentation: Bring any documentation related to your workplace injury or illness, including accident reports or notifications to your employer.
- Medical records: Provide copies of medical records, including treatment notes, doctor’s reports, and any information related to your injury or condition.
- Employer correspondence: Bring any letters, emails, or forms related to your claim from your employer or the workers' compensation insurance company.
- Wage and benefits information: Provide information on your wages, benefits, and any lost income due to the injury.
- List of questions: Prepare questions about your case, the process, costs, and what to expect moving forward.
- Timeline of events: Prepare a timeline of the incident, your injury, and any medical treatment or communication with your employer and the insurance company.
Being well-prepared for your consultation will allow the lawyer to assess your case more effectively and provide you with the best possible legal advice.
