Workers Compensation Lawyer for Remote and At-Home Workers
Yes—Remote Workers Can File Workers Compensation Claims
Working from home doesn’t mean you’re out of luck when it comes to job-related injuries. Illinois law covers employees injured on the job—even if that job happens in your living room. If you’ve suffered a repetitive strain injury, slip and fall, or even mental health strain caused by your job duties, a workers compensation lawyer can help you file a claim and get the benefits you deserve.
Many remote employees assume their claim will be denied or that they don’t qualify—but that’s not true. An experienced workers compensation lawyer understands the evolving rules and how to prove that your injury occurred in the course of employment. Whether you were injured at your desk, walking between tasks, or due to the pressures of an unreasonable workload, you may be entitled to medical treatment, wage replacement, and a financial settlement.
