No, worker's compensation does not compensate for pain and suffering.

You can't get pain and suffering, but we can definitely get him a settlement at the end that will compensate him for his injury in a similar matter. If you want our help call me at (312) 346-5578 or check out my work comp blog, illinoisworkerscomplaw.com.
