Even if you are covered by the Illinois Workers' Compensation Act, you should talk to the attorneys at Compton Law Group about preserving your rights resulting from any injury occurring on a construction work site. Our attorneys are familiar with the OSHA rules and regulations regarding multi-employer work sites. Even if you have been employed by an independent subcontractor, other contractors on the job site are obligated to provide you a safe place in which to work. Contractors that did not create a hazardous job site condition might still have the obligation to either correct that condition or protect you from it. In the appropriate case, we immediately take steps to obtain the OSHA file and preserve any job site evidence. Compton Law Group has safety experts who can be called in to evaluate, analyze and preserve such evidence.

Armed with clear and persuasive evidence of a contractor's obligations, we are best able to present your case to the insurance companies that cover the responsible parties. You may be entitled to substantial compensation over and beyond any workers' compensation settlement. We will work with you to ensure that all of your rights are protected.

If you or a loved one have been injured in a construction-related accident, you should call the attorneys at Compton Law Group immediately. As you know, the scene of a construction site changes from day to day. Wait too long and important evidence can be altered, covered up or destroyed forever. We practice throughout northern Illinois, preserving injured parties' rights and obtaining compensation from negligent firms, persons and corporations.

The attorneys at Compton Law Group are experienced with and dedicated to helping patients that are victims of devastating injuries resulting from careless and indifferent medical treatment from hospitals, nurses and doctors that fail to follow the proper medical procedures.

Medical malpractice insurance companies want you to believe that doctors are being unjustly attacked by greedy attorneys. That is just not the case. Every single day patients are being injured as a result of negligent acts by medical personnel. These injuries occur because of the careless, indifferent actions of a few insensitive medical providers.

For example, when a doctor routinely treats a patient for a stomach ache for months and never refers that patient for a diagnostic test or to a specialist, then discovers cancer only after it is too late, that doctor should be held liable for his or her careless and indifferent attitude toward the patient. The attorneys at Compton Law Group have the relationships with medical experts necessary to help resolve your case. Our medical experts will review the medical treatment records to determine if the medical provider that caused your injury failed to follow the standard procedures required of them.

If you believe that you or a family member is the victim of medical malpractice, it is important that you obtain the relevant medical records, bills, X-rays, CT scans, MRIs, etc., as well as take pictures of your injuries or scars and document your treatment history.

You may have seen ads on television regarding motorcycle advocacy lawyers. Don't be fooled! Daniel Compton, the senior litigation attorney at Compton Law Group, has logged thousands of miles on his motorcycles since 1978. Motorcycle injuries are often the most catastrophic of injuries suffered in vehicle crashes. You need to act quickly to preserve your rights.

If you have been injured in a motorcycle accident, you need an attorney who can help the jury understand your rights as a motorcyclist. Don't let an insurance adjuster tell you that being on a motorcycle is a strike against you. Don't let an insurance company tell you that an accident is your fault simply because you weren't wearing a helmet. That evidence will be inadmissible in any action you bring to enforce your rights against a negligent driver.
