I cannot recommend this car accident lawyer firm enough! From the very beginning, they were incredibly attentive and truly customer-oriented. Their professionalism and dedication were evident at every step of the process. They maintained excellent communication throughout, always keeping me informed and answering all my questions promptly. What impressed me the most was how seamlessly they handled my case. They provided top-notch representation in court, and thanks to their expertise, my case was dismissed without any hassle or negative impact on my record. They made what could have been a stressful experience completely painless. If you’re looking for a legal team that genuinely cares about their clients and delivers outstanding results, this is the one. Thank you so much for everything!

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!

No one ever thinks about divorce at the beginning of a marriage. But people change, situations change and sometimes divorce is your only option. That's how it was for me. And not knowing anyone who had got divorced or what to expect, I did not know where to turn or what was considered a normal proceedings. For those in my position, I would recommended Elizabeth of Elizabeth Westover Born PC. Elizabeth can break down the process, and let you know your rights and what to expect. She can guide you through an unexpected and an unsettling time, and help make it into a much more digestible process. I truly value her expertise. I highly recommend Elizabeth to anyone who may be thinking about divorce to get an honest opinion and know his/her rights.

Words simply aren’t enough to express my gratitude for my team, Elizabeth Westover and Kerry, of Westover Born, P.C., during my family matters and child support cases. Having used small town lawyers for my divorce proceedings ten years ago, and seeing the way they both pitted me and my ex against each other for the sake of lining their own pockets, I refused to use that same lawyer for issues concerning my child today. Elizabeth and Kerry are not only sophisticated and intelligent lawyers, but they are empathetic and supportive; this is a rare combination in the legal field. Elizabeth and Kerry demonstrated the highest level of professional and personal commitment to me and my daughter throughout our cases. I was never a number, my daughter was never an afterthought, and we were treated with the utmost respect. As any client, finances are always a concern when a legal battle commences. Elizabeth and Kerry communicated with me, frequently and openly, about anticipated costs every step of the way. They listened to my wishes and concerns; they guided me firmly and compassionately; they aggressively fought for me and my daughter, all while remaining cognizant of my finances. Elizabeth and Kerry never took advantage of me or my emotions. They guided me into making my own decisions, supported me, and never pressured me to pursue frivolous claims as my divorce lawyer had done. In fact, throughout the legal issues, opposing counsel made several errors resulting in unnecessary and extra work for my team resulting in added fees. My team was able to recover a large portion of these fees for me, effectively demonstrating that they should not have fallen on me or my team to begin with. Elizabeth and Kerry’s interactions with me, as a team, were beyond effective and resulted in a positive ruling for me and my daughter. Elizabeth and Kerry genuinely placed our best interest ahead of their own bottom line. I highly recommend Elizabeth and Kerry to anyone in need of assistance with family matters. In fact, they’re the ONLY team I recommend. Their expertise, passion and dedication to family is unparalleled. My family is ever grateful not just for the positive outcome of my case, but for the humanity and care they offered to me and my daughter.

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.

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.

After the accident. My husband and I were stresses at the idea of getting legal advice and help for the uphill battle that is liability. My son told us about this law firm and we thought to give them a try. Not a day goes by that we aren't greatful for their intervention. Everytime we came for our appointment we were treated almost like family. The atmosphere and the lawyers treated us so familiar, and the food they served us was delicious. Personally the therapy sessions the insurance got us from our accident were perfect. I still do the exercises from the appointments at home and they have greatly improved my overall physical health since. From the administration to the lawyers, the entire firm from my experience was so humble and ready to help in answering all of our questions. They handled our case like the professional, intelligent, and overall good-natured individuals they have displayed themselves and their law firm to be. Thank you so much for taking our case and helping us through a hard time. It is reassuring to find able help that cares on such a deep level as you all!

I have had this group since early last year to help with a disability case, I was assigned one attorney then was handed another shortly after who did absolutely nothing it seems. I was never contacted for any updates and when I was it was because I had to write several emails or leave messages. I'm still waiting for disability and haven't heard nothing from this supposed attorney in the last couple of months. Don't hire them as they'll only waste your time.

Being a nurse with the same company for 28 plus years, I thought I was secure in my job. Through good and bad, we banded together to take care of our patients. I worked my way into management and was proud of my staff and my company. Until I became the patient. Getting hurt on the job at first seemed like an untimely inconvenience. I was confident that I could get fixed and then back to my job. I was wrong. I was blocked at every direction by workers comp; jumping through hoops and not knowing which way to turn. I would be in literal tears with the case worker begging for them to do something to stop the pain, to please help me. I may as well have been talking to a rock. When all else failed and I thought I was going to hurt forever, I found Jack Cannon and his team. To say I was blessed would be an understatement. His knowledge and background in navigating through the legal and emotional aspects of a workplace injury is second to none. He made sure we had money coming in, helped get me second opinions for the surgery I desperately needed, and was there for me every step of the way. He made the whole process easy and ensured I was taken care of. He and his team are easy to talk to and showed a level of compassion that impressed this nurse. The two biggest things I learned: 1. It doesn’t matter how long you have been with a company, workers comp is like any other business and they are not on your side. 2. Don’t wait to call a lawyer if you are hurt on the job. I waited in pain for almost a year. If you are hurt, call Jack Cannon and his team. They are on your side. They will do the fighting so that you can do the healing.

Doug Johnson requested a $5k retainer to perform services for my company. After several months - Doug Johnson informed us that he doesn't have the skillset to present motions in court, and that he primarily only works on settlements. He told us he was not willing to take the matter further. He refused to provide a log of hours worked on request, and kept the $5k retainer. As an attorney myself, I would recommend highly that anyone seeking assistance look elsewhere for a more skilled attorney.

I am posting this on behalf of my sister, Krystyna. I had the privilege of working with Mr. Brian Hurst and his partner, Ms. Olga Allen, for the past eight years. I hired them to handle a very contentious divorce, and it was the best decision I ever made. After experiencing frustration with two ineffective and non-transparent lawyers, working with Olga and Brian restored my faith that lawyers can be trusted, compassionate, and genuinely committed to their clients' best interests rather than financial gain. Ms. Allen carefully prepared the documents for our numerous court appearances, while Mr. Hurst presented and litigated the case. Their work was exemplary—organized, thorough, and meticulously detailed. Mr. Hurst's presentations to the judges (even through several changes) were clear, data-driven, convincing, eloquent, and highly effective. When the first court decision was appealed by the opposing side, Mr. Hurst and Ms. Allen once again collected relevant facts, prepared detailed written presentations, and engaged in skillful court negotiations, resulting in a favorable judgment from the Appeal Court. Their proficiency in multiple languages was an additional benefit, as it helped me overcome my limitations in spoken English, especially during stressful court questioning. I highly recommend Mr. Hurst and Ms. Allen to anyone, particularly those who feel their case is hopeless or that lawyers are taking advantage of them. You will be pleasantly surprised by their dedication and effectiveness. At the end of this painful divorce process, I feel that Olga and Brian are not just my saviors but also dear friends.

Words simply don’t do enough to express my genuine gratitude for Young and her Teams support in handling my husbands immigration case. We first connected with Young about a year ago to adjust my husband’s status as he overstayed his visa. I found Young through my legal insurance offered by my job with MetLife, Young acted quickly once we contacted her office and shared our love story and its legal challenges of immigration. Young became enthralled with our story and was confident that she could help us adjust my husband’s status, and assist with all applicable applications. Young is an expert Immigration Attorney! She is extremely efficient and knowledgeable, and helped us tremendously with all the immigration procedures. We had some interesting bumps along the way, not the fault of our wonderful attorney, but by USCIS itself. Young stood right beside us, literally and figuratively to ensure we understood all legal matters and future proceedings. It was an emotionally exhausting case since we had a surprising second interview, with too many complexities involved to understand, but Young and her team, along with their strategic thinking and bold advocacy helped us achieve a favorable outcome. In the height of political turmoil, this process was simply draining, and I mean real tears at times. Young instilled so much faith and reassurance in my husband and myself, we interviewed with confidence. Exceptional service and results is an understatement, I can go on and on, maybe even chapters! I’m beyond grateful, what a friend she has in me forever and beyond! Now we can travel, worry free and experience all the world has to offer together. Simply amazing, and highly recommend!

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!

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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. What is the likelihood of success in my case?
    Ask for an honest assessment of your case, including the potential challenges and outcomes.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
