Chicago, IL (PRWEB) September 12, 2013
Recently, Illinois Governor Pat Quinn signed a wide reaching workers compensation law intended to reform the compensation system and lower costs for employers statewide. Some of the changes included a 30 percent cut to the workers’ compensation fee schedule, a preferred provider program that is intended to create cost effective medical treatment for employees and a change to the procedures involved when training and appointing arbitrators.
Although the workers compensation reforms were primarily intended to lower costs for employers and spur the economy, the unfortunate byproduct was of course the likelihood of lower awards and compensation for those most in need of financial help – the injured worker.
Despite these recent legal setbacks, the experienced attorneys affiliated with the law offices of Mitchell S. Sexner & Associates LLC always stay abreast of the changes to Illinois laws and the best ways to maximize compensation to deserving injured clients. After all, the worker is the backbone of the economy and when an injury has occurred that arises out of and in the course of a worker’s employment, that worker is entitled to every single penny necessary to facilitate their full medical recovery and re-employment.
Whether the worker has suffered an injury that constitutes Permanent Total Disability, Permanent Partial Disability, Temporary Total Disability or Temporary Partial Disability, the lawyers affiliated with Mitchell S. Sexner & Associates LLC have nevertheless continued to secure the maximum monetary awards available under the law. Millions and millions of dollars have been awarded to these attorneys’ clients over the years and the list of satisfied clients and their families continues to grow with each and every year.
It is the experience, knowledge and attention to detail that separates some workers’ compensation law firms from others as not all firms have continued to achieve maximum results for their clients since the passage of these new reform laws. But those attorneys affiliated with Mitchell S. Sexner & Associates LLC are dedicated to providing the best possible legal representation available anywhere.
