Personal Injury & Workers' Compensation

Illinois Personal Injury and Workers’ Compensation Lawyers

If the negligent actions of another party caused you to be seriously injured while on the job or while traveling in a motor vehicle, please contact Farrell, Hamilton & Julian, P.C., located in Godfrey, Illinois, today. We consult with clients in personal injury and workers’ compensation cases and will work to secure the full and fair compensation to which you are entitled following a devastating accident.

Aggressive Personal Injury Representation

At Farrell, Hamilton & Julian, P.C., our attorneys understand and appreciate the impact that a serious personal injury can have upon clients and their families. For example, their injury may prevent them from going to work to earn the money they need to cover not only everyday living expenses, but the costs of their medical bills. As a firm, our primary objective is always to help you secure damages for pain and suffering, medical expenses, property damages and lost wages, among others.

We have experience dealing with the insurance companies and as a result, know how to counteract their tactics and strategies. Before you speak with them or accept a settlement offer, please contact a seasoned personal injury attorney who can help you assess your options.

Injuries Suffered on the Job

If you are hurt at your place of employment or while on a work site, you are entitled to workers’ compensation benefits, regardless of whether you or your employer was negligent. Over the years, our firm has helped clients secure the workers’ compensation benefits to which they were entitled following a debilitating workplace injury. We will work to alleviate your fears and answer all of your pressing legal questions about the sometimes complex process of securing workers’ compensation benefits in either Illinois or Missouri.

Preparing Your Personal Injury or Workers’ Compensation Case

While you focus on recovering from your injuries by attending doctor appointments and therapy sessions, our job is to collect all relevant information, evaluate the full extent of your injuries and determine the amount of compensation that you need to fully recover. While many personal injury and workers compensation attorneys are anxious to settle, we prepare all of our cases as if we are going to trial. We feel that this thorough preparation keeps us ready for litigation and also shows the opposing side that we are serious.

Third-Party Claims

Please note your workers’ compensation case may also include a personal injury claim. For example, if your job requires you to drive and an inattentive motorist caused a car accident while you were working, you may have both a workers’ comp claim and a personal injury case against the negligent driver.
