Illinois law requires employers to provide workers compensation insurance for almost everyone who is hired, injured, or whose employment is localized in Illinois. Sole proprietors, business partners, corporate officers, and members of limited liability companies may exempt themselves.
Workers compensation cases often settle in as little as 6 months after medical treatment is complete. However, each case is unique and can take less or more time to settle depending on the injuries and number of parties involved in the claim.
Not all workers compensation cases end in a settlement. However, based on data from Illinois, about 90% of the cases do settle. Fewer than 5 percent of workers comp cases go to trial. A similar percentage gets dismissed or denied without an appeal.
