CHICAGO –
Strom & Associates is representing the victim of a recent armed robbery that took place in Homewood, Illinois. The victim was working as a clerk in a 7-11, when a person walked into the store and demanded money. During the confrontation, the employee was shot. Law enforcement is searching for the perpetrator, who took off immediately after the incident.The victim will recover; however, he faces a number of challenges along the way, including the costs of his emergency care, medical expenses, loss of income and more. Strom & Associates understands the impact this unexpected event has made on the victim, and as a result, the firm is committed to seeking financial recovery in the form of workers’ compensation on the employee’s behalf.
Workers’ compensation, in general
Workers’ compensation is designed to provide monetary help to those injured in accidents related to employment. As victims recover, they can receive monetary compensation, which can aid with monthly living expenses until it is possible to return to work. In addition, workers’ compensation can also cover the medical costs associated with a work-related illness or injury. Moreover, depending on the particular case, there may be additional benefits available under the system.
Filing for workers’ compensation can be a complicated process. Fortunately, Strom & Associates uses its 50 years of combined legal experience to help people, like this robbery victim, understand the process and produce the necessary documentation and information required for financial assistance. The law firm has worked with a wide assortment of employment-related issues, such as occupational illness or disease; repetitive stress injuries; injuries from the performance of regular work duties; aggravation of a pre-existing condition; and work-related accident injuries.
