While working in the bakery at Jewel-Osco, our client slipped on water leaking from a dishwasher. What seemed like a minor fall quickly escalated—she ultimately required two knee surgeries and ongoing injections for chronic pain. The insurance company denied responsibility based on their own medical examiner’s report, but we challenged their position. Through our advocacy, we secured a $290,300.00 settlement—reflecting the present cash value of an odd lot permanent total disability award.
Despite the delays and denials she faced, our client received the highest possible compensation based on her wage and condition thanks to our persistence and experience.
Our client suffered a back injury while attempting to stop a cart full of supplies from falling of the back of a truck.

We went to trial under section 8(a) and successfully argued that his current back condition was related to the injury and not a prior incident or pre-existing condition. Our client received the back surgery and ultimately could not return to his prior job.
