Helping Injured Workers with Workers' Compensation Claims
At the Law Offices of James H. Miller, Jr., I work closely with injury workers applying for workers' comp benefits and preventing the premature termination of benefits. I am committed to helping you maintain your financial security after an on-the-job injury or occupational illness.
From filing to final resolution, I will provide you with sound legal guidance so you receive your benefits in a timely manner and can afford to go on with your life.

What to Do When You Have Suffered a Workplace Injury
There are a couple of very important actions you MUST take immediately to protect your rights to receive workers' compensation.
1. Promptly report a workplace accident or diagnosis of an occupational disease to your employer
2. Keep appointments with your health care providers
3. Talk to a personal injury attorney if your injury was caused by a negligent third-party at your workplace or while you were on the job
Problems You May Have with Workers' Compensation
Even if you report your injury and your injury or illness is well documented, you may still run into problems that require the help of a lawyer. Contact me if you are experiencing any of the following:
- The insurance company denies that your illness or injury is work-related or charges that you had a previous injury
- The insurance company wants to end your benefits but you still need medical care and feel you cannot return to work yet
- The insurance company has not provided you with all the benefits you should receive. Learn more about types of workers' comp benefits and steps we can take to ensure you receive them.
- The insurance company is offering you less money as a final settlement than you should receive.
Don't settle for less than you should receive. Contact me, Chicago workers' compensation lawyer James H. Miller, Jr., to discuss your claim for workers' comp benefits.
