Every lawyer works on a contingency basis
A recent caller wanted to know how much we charge to represent him because he didn't think he could afford an attorney. He was pleasantly surprised that we work on a contingency basis and receive 20% of what we recover when the case is over.
This is nothing special to our firm. Illinois law prevents Illinois workers' compensation attorneys from charging anything but a contingency fee if they win. In other words, if a lawyer asks you for money as part of representing you, run the other way.
There are also some attorneys that try to take 20% off of your TTD benefits or medical expenses when they do nothing more than make a phone call or write a letter. We never take money for TTD unless we go to trial and we don't take money that is to go for our client's medical expenses ever.
We are workers' compensation attorneys that help people with Illinois work injuries anywhere in IL via our statewide network of attorneys. Contact us and we will answer your questions or find the right lawyer for your situation.
