| Description | Mark Weissburg excels at explaining the basic rights and benefits of workers’ compensation and the often unknown roles of insurance adjusters, doctors and lawyers. Mark Weissburg devotes his entire law practice to workers’ compensation and to other closely related areas of the law. Mark has helped thousands of injured workers get their share of the millions of dollars of benefits they are entitled to. To make the powerful field of workers’ compensation more understandable to injured Illinois laborers, Mark authored a 2007 paperback titled How to Win a Worker’s Compensation Claim in Illinois. The book describes the basic rights and benefits under the state’s workers’ compensation act as well as the often-unknown roles performed by insurance adjusters, doctors and lawyers. The straightforward and easy-to-read book also alerts readers to the kinds of problems they may encounter and should avoid when filing claims. As Mark explains in the text, the severity of workplace injuries covered by workers’ compensation varies widely. Many of Mark’s clients have experienced extremely severe injuries. But even when an injury is less disabling, Mark knows how to manage the workers’ compensation claim that follows. A workers’ compensation attorney, armed with experience and the knowledge of countless rules and regulations can achieve a better settlement or trial result.
