FMGR devotes significant resources to workers’ compensation disputes, including major catastrophic claims and occupational disease claims. Our attorneys appear regularly at workers’ compensation dockets throughout the southern half of the State of Illinois. Our attorneys also regularly argue appeals before the Illinois Workers’ Compensation Commission and the Illinois Appellate Court.
The large volume of workers’ compensation cases handled by the firm has resulted in the development of an expertise in the handling of these cases which provides the client with quality representation and economical service. Our attorneys recognize that different clients have different philosophies with respect to claims management. Although we handle a large volume of cases, we advise our clients on a case by case basis how to achieve the desired result for each individual claim.
