Recent settlement takes 7 years!

There is an expression that “The Wheels of Justice move slowly.”  This is appropriate for a recent settlement secured by McCready Law.  Our client was injured in 2008 in LaSalle County, Illinois.  We fought for 1 1/2 years to keep the case in Cook County, but the case was eventually transferred to Ottowa.  We then fought for almost five years to get the justice our client deserved.  Our client was injured on the job and we made sure his worker’s compensation payments continued throughout the course of the case.  We pursued a third party case against the factory where he was doing work.  His case recently settled for a large cash settlement plus medical benefits for life.  We try to expedite all of our clients’ cases, but the court system, at times, can move slowly.  We strive to make sure our clients are protected and receive the compensation they deserve.
