Workers' Compensation Lawyer in Chicago, IL.
You have three years to file a claim, but you say you lost the case, so I assume a claim has been filed. As for the retainer, you generally shouldn't have to pay anything upfront for a workers' comp attorney. I have a few other questions, but I believe I can help you. Feel free to call me at 1-800-517-1614.

The statute of limitations on a Workers Comp case is usually 3 years from the date of injury.
I am unclear whether you or an attonrey on your behalf filed at the Industrial Commission. You should consult with a Wokers Compenasation attorney regarding the exact nature and dates of your injury. You may also want to clarify what hass been done on your behalf, prodecurally, in pursuing your claim. Contact me if you would like to discuss. 1 person marked this answer as good
