I worked for Sidley for a long time. Coming out of the Medical field and going to work for a LAW FIRM was a bit of a change, but I was involved in Health Ins and Insurance claims and retired in 2009. Definitely, one of my favorite jobs.

I once had lawyer here put the wrong name on a form they were submitting to the government on my behalf. That kind of situation where you edit a template but fail to catch one of the places the old name was in. Fortunately, I randomly found it and called it out. No apology or acknowledgment. Sigh

Back in the1980's, I hired Randy Taradash for a minor criminal matter. The Court clerk made a mistake on the file by entering a conviction when there was no conviction. I did not find out about the error until the early '90s. I called his law firm but they would do nothing correct the error -- I had to do it myself. This is obviously one of those opportunist lawyers who is just in it for the quick buck, with no concern for doing the job right.

Working with Randy has been by far, one of the best legal experience Ive ever had. He was genuinely invested our case. He always made it a point to keep me informed. I really appreciated that about Randy.
The likelihood of handling this case ourselves and coming to a fair resolution was highly impossible. Randy managed to turn a very difficult and sensitive case into a positive outcome. His method and approach ended the case within a reasonable amount of time.
I would not hesitate to contact Randy again for legal assistance.
Im so glad I reached out to him!

Been 4 years since retaining him, I 've gotten a lot of letters, and thank GOD my private insurance has been paying since then, or I'd really be screwed. Letter stating he'll go to the commission, then absolutely NOTHING for months. Can't even get an injection approved when Travelers own doctor recommended an injection

Sean held my documents for 10 months just to tell me although I have a case he can't take it because of limitation. We had plenty of time to file when I came across his page but he wasted a lot of time and now I'm potentially out of a case because of him.

Did not feel like he did the best job for me and my children . Always felt he was rude and condescending. It was COVID and I understand courts were backed up but was not kept well informed , then when I eventually called for an update after not hearing anything for months was charged . Me. Singer supposedly has a good reputation but I am not sure he should have even taken my case and I even asked him if it was worth my money and effort to proceed and he told me it was then after almost 2 years ended up that it wasn’t and received a very small amount for my children in a child support case . Would have saved me a lot of emotional distress if he would have just done a little homework to determine it wasn’t going to be . Staff in the firm is rude and always acted like you were bothering them , even though I only called when necessary for an update or to return their call . The only good thing was Mr.Singer’s assistant Deb . She was great .

I just finished a four day divorce trial with John. I'd consulted with many attorneys and had a previous attorney. John took on my case and essentially inherited a crazy, messy case smack dab in the middle. The opposing side had 9 4 inch binders of exhibits. We had 1. It was so obvious John was the most prepared individual in the room. He used many of their exhibits against them. He systematically undid every argument they had against me. He was magnificent to watch. He knew details about my marriage/divorce that I didn't remember telling him. He made sure I was prepared to take the stand. He treated my professionally always, but also like a friend. He vehemently defended some choices I've made that others wouldn't have. His advice was always spot on, but he also vehemently deffended me if I did not follow his advice exactly. Although, I don't recommend that. He's incredibly instinctive. He is clearly well liked and well respected amongst his peers. He's direct and thorough and is not afraid to defend the truth. Simply put, John Singer is absolutely amazing. I wish I had found my way to him from the very beginning.

I was recommended this place by a mutual friend, and I have to say I am incredibly satisfied with my time there.
They were professional, they got the job done promptly, they kept me updated, and they were very nice.
Hopefully I don't have to open any other cases in my lifetime, but if I do I know where I'm going.

I was referred to this guy by an old friend to help out with an issue I might have.
He told me to send him anything I had and he'd get in touch.
He informed me on what he had and if I get anything else to forward it to him.
He then sent a text informing me he was charging me and to send him the funds.
This shyster didn't inform me that I was going to be charged when we first spoke now there's a bill.

It is very rare in this day and age to find an honest, ethical, and no nonsense Attorney. Jonathan has more than earned my respect and appreciation, I value him and his ethics more than imagined.

Jonathon was outstanding!! He is very professional, nice and easy to talk to. Johnathon was always quick to respond back. Process was very smooth and faster than I expected. Most get denied a few times for the beginning process. Don’t get discouraged. Then there’s the hearing. Everything went very well at this stage. Within a few weeks I received my acceptance letter. Thank you very much Johnathon!!!!

I wish I could give this company 10 stars out of 5. My attorney Anne Prevenas was the absolute best! I’ve had bad experiences with attorneys with lack of communication and not answering after taking my case. Anne was completely different she walked me through everything & let me know what to expect ! I received the top pay for my case much more than I expected and she even helped me get money to keep my finances on track while I waited . Not to mention my case was settled less than a year after the incident. If your looking for a great attorney Anne Prevenas is the best look no further!!!!

I was traveling with my boyfriend to Edwardsville when we got in a minor car crash, I thought I was fine but I had a lot of neck pain after the incident. A friend referred Pignatelli and Associates since she had the same experience and they did a great job on her, so I decided to hire them as well. I'm so thankful for my friend who referred me to this law firm which helped me a lot to get a settlement from my insurance that covered and reimbursed my medical bills until I recovered.

Terrible Communication, dragging my case on forever, charging premium prices for a very “Wish” style service. Lacked accountability. When being questioned on progress of case and why it’s been at a stand still they dropped me. No warning. No phone call or discussions. Dropped. After I paid an insane amount of money and they did the bare minimum.. I would never recommend Pignatelli lawfirm again. They are not the lawfirm they were 10-20 years ago. A shame the name has torn itself apart.

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.
