COVID-19 Coronavirus Amendments to Illinois Workers’ Compensation Commission Rules of Practice

[email protected]May 1, 2020May 29, 2020

In response to COVID-19 Coronavirus, the Illinois Workers Compensation Commission (IWCC) held a recent meeting in which Chairman Michael J. Brennan announced amendments to the Commission’s Rules of Practice. The amendments identify who are included as first responders or essential front-line workers, who receive a rebuttable presumption that claims related to COVID-19 Coronavirus are causally connected to the scope of their employment for purposes of obtaining workers compensation benefits.

I am the marketing guy for Michael V Favia and have known him for at least 10 years. We were both on the John Marshall Alumni Board together, when he was President. From time to time I've sent Mike referrals and I always hear positive reports from my friends and colleagues I've sent bis way for personal injury matters and nurse licensing issues. Great firm amd I'm so happy to be able to work with them all.

I was rear ended by a reckless, moronic truck driver three years ago in Indiana. I live in Illinois, and I am a truck driver as well, so I was referred to Michael by my doctor. Despite the accident happening in Indiana, I felt that Michael and Tom Kain came through for me. Insurance companies for the trucking industry loves to be a pain in the rear when it comes to settlements, and this one was no exception. Michael made sure that all of my bills was accounted for, paid, and his expenses were very fair. I would have no trouble in recommending Michael to other people. He is very down to earth and will not make false promises. I received a good settlement in despite of Indiana's nutty laws, and am glad of the results.
