Illinois Line of Duty Pension Benefits
In Illinois, firefighters and police officers can receive tax-free pension benefits if they sustain injuries while in the line of duty that cause disabilities and leave them unable to perform their jobs. While the amount varies, these benefits can be as much as 75% of a salary. Similarly, firefighters and police officers can receive up to 50% of their salary should they be involved in an accident that results in a disability.
These pension benefits are crucial for providing financial stability to those hurt while serving and protecting their communities. However, the legal processes for securing them are complex. Do not risk missing out on the money you need to support yourself and your family during recovery. Turn to our team at Jeep, Hauck and Associates for help getting what you deserve.
What Is the Average Workers’ Compensation Settlement?
There is no average workers' compensation settlement because every case is unique. If you receive a settlement, its amount will depend on a variety of factors, including the severity of your injury, the cost of your medical treatment, and the amount of time you missed from work.
